Structural Geology Of Cutler Dam Quadrangle And Northern Part Of Honeyville Quadrangle, Utah, Douglas A. Sprinkel
Structural Geology Of Cutler Dam Quadrangle And Northern Part Of Honeyville Quadrangle, Utah, Douglas A. Sprinkel
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
The mapped area is located in the north-central part of Utah. The northern part of the mapped area is located in the Basin and Range province and the southern part of the mapped area is located in the Middle Rocky Mountain province. The north-south and east-west dimensions of the mapped area are 11.1 miles and 5.1 miles, respectively.
Paleozoic rocks are exposed in Bear River Narrows, in Cache Butte Divide, and in the Wellsville Mountains. Paleozoic strata, in Bear River Narrows, dip west. The Ordovician Swan Peak Formation crops out in the eastern part of Bear River Narrows. It is …
Dikes Of The Clear Creek Area, Wasatch Plateau, Utah, William Dennis Thomas
Dikes Of The Clear Creek Area, Wasatch Plateau, Utah, William Dennis Thomas
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
The area, covered by this report, includes about 108 square miles in the northeastern part of the Wasatch Plateau in central Utah. Clear Creek, Utah, is near the center of the area.
Stratigraphy of the area is characterized by 18,000 to 20,000 feet of sedimentary rocks above the Precambrian basement. The oldest exposed stratigraphic unit is the 11ancos Formation of late Cretaceous age; the youngest exposed stratigraphic unit is the North Horn Formation of Cretaceous-Tertiary age. The sedimentary rocks are mainly sandstone, shale, and coal. Sandstone and shale are the most abundant.
Structure of the area is characterized by folds …

Geology And Ore Deposits Of The Johnnie District, Nye County, Nevada, Stanley Wayne Ivosevic
UNLV Theses, Dissertations, Professional Papers, and Capstones
The Johnnie district, in the northwestern Spring Mountains, Nye County, Nevada, may have produced a little under 100,000 troy oz of gold, since the discovery of the district in 1890.
An approximately 13,000-ft-thick (4,000 m) section of east-dipping upper Precambrian through Middle Cambrian miogeosynclinal clastic and carbonate rocks is exposed in the district. The strata are, in order of decreasing age, the Johnnie Formation, Stirling Quartzite, Wood Canyon Formation, Zabriskie Quartzite, and Carrara and Bonanza King Formations. These are overlain by Cenozoic units which include and older unit and a younger unit of fanglomerate, the older containing a megabreccia deposit, …

Petrology And Structure Of The Glen Quadrangle, Southeastern Adirondacks, Ny, Stewart Smith Farrar
Petrology And Structure Of The Glen Quadrangle, Southeastern Adirondacks, Ny, Stewart Smith Farrar
Graduate Dissertations and Theses
An outcrop geologic map of The Glen quadrangle has been produced at a scale of 1:24,000. This quadrangle is composed of a sequence of Precambrian rocks which were deformed and recrystallized under clinopyroxene-garnet granulite facies conditions during late Precambrian time. Metasedimentary rocks include calcic and dolomitic marble, metapelites, and metaquartzites. Rocks of known igneous origin include metagabbros, a metanorthosite-anorthositic metagabbro series, and minor unmetamorphosed diabase intrusives. In addition, there are a variety of mineralogically and texturally subdivided granitic-charnockitic gneisses of unknown origin. These rock sequences are correlated, where possible, with previous work in surrounding areas.
