The database is maintained by the Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources (NSDNR), Mineral Resources Branch (MRB). The digital product was created by the NSDNR MRB staff. The digital product was developed from information contained in the Mineral Rights Registry database which is also publically available on the Claim reference maps maintained in the Registry office in Halifax. The digital product contains layers for entities such as: exploration licences, leases (mineral, special, and hydrocarbon storage-area), non mineral registrations, mineral closures, hydrocarbon storage-area licences, special licences for coal, special licences for salt and potash, special licences for geothermal resources, special licences for uranium and special licences for all minerals. Begining with version 7 of the database, all data is in the 6 degree Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) zone 20 projection using the North American Datum (NAD) 1983. This is a change from versions 1 - 6 which were in NAD27. MINERAL RIGHTS DISCLAIMER: Information for this digital product was acquired from the Mineral Rights Database on November 7, 2008. You may also check the DUMPDATE field in the various databases to determine the date that data for any licence, lease or non mineral registration was extracted from the Minerals Rights Database. This information is a graphic index only and licenced areas may not in all cases be found as shown. For more detailed information consult specific individual claim reference maps available in the Registry of Mineral and Petroleum Titles.</TD> </TR> <TR> <TD> </TD> <TD valign="top"><b>Purpose:</b></TD> <TD valign="top"> The purpose of this digital product is to provide a digital version of the mineral rights database at a specific date.</TD> </TR> <TR> <TD> </TD> <TD valign="top"><b>Supplemental Information:</b></TD> <TD valign="top"> Data Set ID = t051mr; Data Class = minright; Project ID = minright; Old Name = mrdb</TD> </TR> <TR> <TD> </TD> <TD valign="top"><b>Language</b></TD> <TD valign="top"> English</TD> </TR> <TR> <TD> </TD> <TD valign="top"><b>Data Credit:</b></TD> <TD valign="top"> Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources</TD> </TR> <TR> <TD> </TD> <TD valign="top"><b>Data Environment</b></TD> <TD valign="top"> ArcInfo 9.2 on a SUN Ultra 60 Sparc workstation running Solaris 8</TD> </TR> <TR> <TD> </TD> <TD valign="top"><b>Native Data Set Format</b></TD> <TD valign="top"> ArcView shapefiles</TD> </TR> <TR><TD> </TD></TR> <TR><TD colspan="4" CLASS="heading"><A name="Contact Information"><B><I>Contact Information</I></B></A></TD></TR> <TR><TD><BR /></TD></TR> <TR> <TD> </TD> <TD valign="top"></TD> <TD valign="top"> Brian Fisher</TD> </TR> <TR> <TD> </TD> <TD valign="top"></TD> <TD valign="top"> Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources, Mineral Resources Branch</TD> </TR> <TR> <TD> </TD> <TD valign="top"></TD> <TD valign="top"> Digital Information Services Supervisor</TD> </TR> <TR> <TD> </TD> <TD valign="top"></TD> <TD valign="top"> 1701 Hollis Street, P.O.

There are another 14 shapefiles which contain individual themes from the mineral rights database in order to make it easier to read if a user wishes to look at different layers separately. For example EXPLLIC.SHP contains only the exploration licences, while LICENSEE.SHP groups all the licences and applications by the name of the licencee or the applicant. There are also 10 DBF tables that contain information which is already contained in the shapefile tables but is not normalized. The data has been normalized in these tables for those who want to use them. There is a metadata file in HTML format containing a description of all the fields contained in the tables. If you downloaded the SHP product this can be found in the metadata directory and is called DP051MDAT.HTM.
