The 48 contiguous states alone are a 1.9 billion-acre jigsaw puzzle of cities, farms, forests and pastures that Americans use to feed themselves, power their economy and extract value for business and pleasure.

No precious metals/mining here folks.
That is a great site with lots of interesting information. Thanks for the link. Cheers, RickO
There is mining but very little PM. The Miscellaneous category in gray contains quarries, which are common in my area for stone, mostly limestone.
I wish they would do a map of every country. Then I think many would see how truly great and diversified this county is. Especially interesting would be compared to Zimbabwe or Venezuela.
Comparison to Russia and China would be good too. 
Knowledge is the enemy of fear
Even with Fargo being the most populated area in ND, the map still shows most of the acreage in the region as crop. Give it another 10 years I see Fargo growing by another 25K. Which is why I am planning my escape to the country!
Cool, thanks for sharing.
I know how one American uses two feet of it.
