Foraminifera Of The Colorado Shale At Fort Benton, Montana, Robert E. Willson
Foraminifera Of The Colorado Shale At Fort Benton, Montana, Robert E. Willson
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
Shale is known to be a source-bed for oil, and the Colorado shale which is over 2000 feet thick in places may well be the source for the oil which is now accumulated in the included or closely associated sandstones. A thorough study of the fossil content may not only be helpful in correlation of Cretaceous sediments, but it likewise may be the starting point for studies -which could eventually lead to the discovery of unknown mineral deposits.
Fauna And Stratigraphy Of The Meagher Formation At Three Localities In Southwestern Montana, William J. Van Matre
Fauna And Stratigraphy Of The Meagher Formation At Three Localities In Southwestern Montana, William J. Van Matre
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
In the past 75 years, the scenic area about the headwaters of the great Missouri River has attracted the attention of many leading stratigraphers and paleontologists; for in this area bountiful outcrops of Paleozoic fossil horizons are available for study and correlation.
Geology Of Upper Bear Gulch And Dry Boulder Creek Area Madison County, Montana, Norman King
Geology Of Upper Bear Gulch And Dry Boulder Creek Area Madison County, Montana, Norman King
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
Potential gold mines lie high among the rugged peaks of the Tobacco Root Mountains of southwestern Montana. This is a region where little geologic work has been done, though extensive mine operations have been carried on, and valuable ore has been shipped.
A Geological Report On South Boulder Canyon And The Mayflower Mine-Renova Areas, B. R. Alto
A Geological Report On South Boulder Canyon And The Mayflower Mine-Renova Areas, B. R. Alto
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
The purpose of this report is to serve as a written explanation of the accompanying geologic maps and columnar section. Each year the senior students in mining and geological engineering at the Montana School of Mines spend two weeks in the field where they learn the fundamentals of geologic mapping and related field studies. An additional week is spent at the school where maps are assembled, prints made, end other work is done in preparation for the writing of the report.
Upper Cretaceous Sediment In Montana, Frank J. Frankovich
Upper Cretaceous Sediment In Montana, Frank J. Frankovich
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
Cretaceous sediments in Montana record events during a period of unusual geologic interest. After a long period of extensive submergence of the area during Jurassic time, came a period of varying continental and marine deposition with consequent variations in the types of sediments laid down. A study of these variations, their extent, and their cause has been the primary object of this thesis.
Geology Of A Portion Of The Bull Mountain Range Jefferson County, Montana, Thomas A. Greene
Geology Of A Portion Of The Bull Mountain Range Jefferson County, Montana, Thomas A. Greene
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
Work was first done on a known section, the south Boulder Section, in order to familiarize the student with the formations. Most of the area was mapped by plane table and telescopic alidade, general features being surveyed by automobile traverse and a pacing traverse.
