Structural Geology Of The Southeast Quarter Of The Dutchman Butte Quadrangle, Oregon, Gerald Lee Black

Dissertations and Theses

Field work in the southeast quarter of the Dutchman ·Butte Quadrangle, which lies within the Klamath Mountains geomorphic province of southwestern Oregon, was completed during the summers of 1973 and 1974. The objectives of the study were fourfold: (1) to produce a geologic map of the southeast quarter of the Dutchman Butte Quadrangle, (2) to determine the nature of the contact between the Dothan and Rogue formations, (3) to construct a stratigraphic column of the Dothan Formation in the area, and (4) to attempt to determine the nature of the deformation occurring in the area.

The study area lies in southwest Douglas County 5 kilometers south from Camas Valley and is accessible by state highway 42. The purpose of the study was to map the geology at a 1:31,250 scale, determine the stratigraphy, study the petrology of the formations, and determine the provenance within a tectonic setting.
