A geologic and geochemical investigation of the Graham Creek Roadless Area, Texas was conducted in 1981-1982. The area has a probable mineral-resource potential for oil and gas. The roadless are contains a deposit of kaolinite clay similar to deposits being mined west of the area; the southeast part of the roadless area has a substantiated kaolinite clay resource potential. Smectite clay and sand deposits also are present in the area but these resources are relatively abundant throughout the region.
