Comments:

1) The original zipfile did not come with any metadata.

2) Symbols on the map are composed of lines.

3) There appeared to be a few errors in the original attribute table which I have changed:

• The original attribute table had "Qla/Toc" with the unit name "Lacustrine and alluvial deposits, undifferentiated over basalt of Cove Creek". However Toc refers to Oak City Formation, and Tcc refers to basalt of Cove Creek. I changed "Qla/Toc" to "Qla/Tcc", assuming the unit name was correct.
• In the original attribute table, units Tmpi and Tmpf were said to belong to "Mount Belknap Volcanics", while the map and legend suggest they belong to "Volcanics of Monroe Peak Caldera". I edited the data to agree with the map and legend.

4) I added the "comments" field in the updated attribute table to include the classification of some of the units as "Cambrian Strata in the Cricket and Mineral Mountains" as is indicated in the map pdf legend.

Lines have been pushed. Harmonized lines shapefile is titled "Lines".

Attenuation faults were assigned the new_type of "fault". I wasn't certain that would be the best classification though.
