The table called GeoMaterialDict is a controlled-term list.
U.S. Geological Survey, Geologic Map Schema, v2.0, 2018
Text string with form nn-nn, nn-nn-nn, or similar. Each fragment is numeric, of the same length, left-padded with zeros, and dash-delimited. These strings document hierarchical relationships within this table.

This table in the GeMS file geodatabase contains the terms and definitions for the NGMDB Geologic Materials Classification which is intended to characterize a map unit with a generalized category based on lithologic and genetic criteria; it applies to the map unit as a whole.
This classification is to provide a basis for quickly integrating map data from different sources, and to convey to the public a simple, general sense of each map unit’s lithology and genesis.
This table was not created by the Oregon Department of Geology And Mineral Industries, but by the U.S. Geological Survey as a standard dictionary for GeMS.

Supported in part between 2014 and 2020 by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) STATEMAP [http://ncgmp.usgs.gov/about/statemap.html] component of the National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program under assistance awards G15AC00180 and G20AC00202, and by the Oregon Water Resources Department through Interagency Agreements DOGAMI IAA# 12102013/OWRD 13 057 and DOGAMI IAA# DASPS-2542-16/OWRD IAA 16 047. Additional funds were provided by the State of Oregon through the Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries (DOGAMI).
These definitions were adapted from a variety of published and unpublished works. Created by the U.S. Geological Survey for GeMS.
The GeoMaterial classification has been developed empirically, based on commonly-occurring geologic materials. For some purposes a single standard earth materials classification may not adequately address the geology of a given region in sufficient detail.
