Purpose	The purpose of this report is to assess water quality in abandoned mineshafts in the Picher mining district in 2002, to compare water quality in 2002 to water quality in 1976-77, and to determine how the water quality has changed with time.; The scope of the work included sampling seven abandoned mineshafts at selected depths for analysis of water properties and dissolved metals to compare to past water-quality data.; USGS personnel attempted to sample the same mineshafts that were sampled in the 1976-77 study; however, many of these were inaccessible so other nearby shafts were sampled for the study described in this report.
