Petrology And Alteration In The Core Of The Bear Lodge Tertiary Intrusive Complex, Bear Lodge Mountains, Crook County, Wyoming, Michael Wilkinson

Theses and Dissertations

The Bear Lodge complex is an elongate, dome-shape uplift about 8.5 km long by 4 km wide, 10 km northwest of Sundance, Wyoming. The study area is centered about Warren Peaks and includes approximately 23 km2. The igneous intrusive core of the complex is mostly alkali trachyte but latite is abundant in the southern portion of the complex. Phonolite, pseudoleucite trachyte porphyry, and carbonatite dikes cut across the core. Precambrian granitic rocks and lower Paleozoic sedi mentary rocks flank the intrusion and occur as xenoliths.

The latite is relatively unaltered and consists mostly of oligo clase, andesine, alkali feldspar, salite, …

Petrology, Geochemistry And Economic Geology Of Selected Gold Claims In Rocks Of The Wasekwan Lake Area, Lynn Lake District, Manitoba, Canada, Douglas Scott Kenaley

Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this investigation was to map and study, both at regional and detailed scales, the units encountered within seven gold claims that were staked by Sherritt-Gordon Mines Limited of Lynn Lake, Manitoba. The claims are located in the wasekwan Lake area, approximately 12. 8 km southeast of Lynn Lake. Regional mapping was conducted at a scale of 1:12000 over a 6.4 km2 area and detailed mapping of potentially economic areas was conducted at a scale of 1:240. Whole-rock geochemistry, microprobe, optical and X-ray diffraction procedures were employed to describe and characterize the rocks. The Aphebian rock units of …

Carbonate Bodies Within The Basal Swift Formation (Jurassic) Of Northwestern North Dakota, Tina M. Langtry

Theses and Dissertations

The carbonate bodies of the basal Swift Formation (Upper Jurassic) occur as anomalous deflections on a relatively uniform mechanical well log section. The areal distribution, stratigraphic relationships, and genesis of the carbonate bodies were determined by using the gamma ray log, the spontaneous-potential log, the resistivity log suite, and megascopic and microscopic core analysis.

The carbonate bodies of the basal Swift Formation are coarsening upward sequences composed of predominantly sand-sized, recrystallized mollusk grains. These grains were transported by strong bottom cur rents across the irregular sea floor of the shallow epicontinental Jurassic sea, and were deposited under agitated water conditions …

Depositional Environment And Diagenesis, Birdbear Formation (Upper Devonian) Williston Basin, North Dakota, Peter T. Loeffler

Theses and Dissertations

The Birdbear Formation is a subsurface unit that is present throughout North Dakota except where truncated by post-depositional erosion. An angular unconformity is present between the Birdbear and younger strata in areas where the Three Forks Formation does not overlie the Birdbear. An isopach map of the Birdbear, constructed from drill-hole log data, indicates that the formation generally thickens gradually from the erosional limit to a maximum of 119 feet north of the center of the Basin. A structure map o~ the top of the Birdbear shows a basin that reaches 9000 feet below sea level.

The Birdbear is predominantly …

Glacial Geology And Stratigraphy Of Southeastern Pierce And Southwestern Benson Counties, North Dakota, Arthur W. Schnacke Jr.

Theses and Dissertations

The study area includes 220 square miles in southeastern Pierce and southwestern Benson Counties, North Dakota (T. 152 N. through T. 154 N., R. 70 W. through R. 73 W.).

,

Field mapping and subsequent analyses were attempted to differentiate the drifts of the Leeds and Souris lobes, to determine the sequence and duration of events during and subsequent to glaciation, and to aid in correlating the drifts. Landforms of the area include: ice marginal ridges, ground moraine, proglacial plains, abandoned river channels, and sand dunes.

In the laboratory, very coarse sand lithology percentages, till fabric, texture, and gross lithology …

Written Communications' Criteria Identified By Accounting Supervisors For Evaluating Accounting Reports In Public Accounting Firms, Gail Bjelverud Brostrom

Theses and Dissertations

The problem of this study was to determine the written communication criteria job-entry level accountants need to enable them to write accounting memorandums and reports that are acceptable to their supervisors and the accounting firm they work for.A list of writing criteria and definitions was developed with the assistance of accounting educators and a jury of accountants. Lists of criteria and definitions were sent to 43 senior accountants employed by the five CPA firms participating in this study. These senior accountants were direct supervisors of job-entry level accountants and critiqued the writing of job-entry level accountants. Of the 43 senior …

The Relationship Of Frequency And Social Desirability Of First Names With Academic And Sex Role Variables., Debra Ruth Crisp

Theses and Dissertations

Much research has been done to support the notion that name stereotypes exist. These stereotypes appear to be related to the popularity of names. The present study was conducted in an effort to discover whether certain types of names were actually associated with different behavioral or attitudinal factors in the people who possessed those names.For a sample of 1094 University of North Dakota students who were first-time entering freshmen in the fall of 1977, the following data was collected, as much as possible, for every subject: first name; the number of times the name occurred in the population; a social …

Mary And Simon: A Novel., Harry Edwin Eiss

Theses and Dissertations

Mary and Simon: A Novel chronicles a period in the lives of three generations of two families in the Mid-western United States during a period of roughly thirty years, 1880-1910. In an early scene Simon fishes, apparently unconcerned that some twenty yards away Mary hangs from a tree, dead. The novel then moves back and forth through their lives, enriching the meaning and significance of this initial scene.Both the structure and the poetic truth of the novel are based on the principle of Theme-and-Variation, an important principle of art, particularly in music, the principle by which the main idea or …

6 Cubicles (Original Drama)., Daniel Warren Landes

Theses and Dissertations

6 Cubicles is a three act drama that is best labeled a "tragicomedy." The plot revolves around the life of Hilda Stag, an elderly English professor whose obsessive behavior is best typified by her kleptomania and her mania for watching soap operas. Eventually Hilda's bad habits are chosen by her colleagues as the "sins" of the faculty office for which "atonement" must be made. Hilda thus becomes a scapegoat who is "sacrificed" by her officemates by means of a seemingly harmless prank. Suffering a mental breakdown, Hilda fantasizes herself in a religious soap opera but is victimized here as well, …

Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of the study was to solicit pertinent opinion and data intending to inform policymakers and educators concerning the feasibility and potential consequences of specifying an adequate level of education in North Dakota. National experts and selected North Dakotans interested or involved in educational policymaking were interviewed.Four questions were answered: (1) What are the national trends in defining educational adequacy? (2) Where educational adequacy has been defined, what have the results been? (3) What are the salient issues to be considered if North Dakota undertakes defining/funding adequacy? (4) Who are the predicted "winners" and "losers" if adequacy is defined …

The Planning, Evaluation And Reporting Process: A Study Of Compliance With Accountability Legislation In Selected School Districts Of Minnesota., Robert Anthony Stepaniak

Theses and Dissertations

Eight randomly selected school districts in Minnesota were studied to evaluate the impact of the 1976 "Planning, Evaluation and Reporting" (PER) accountability law. Four districts each from two sizes of school districts (size was based on the number of central office administrators) allowed a comparison of the results from the two groups.Two major sources of data were used--written information and on site interviews with the PER coordinators of the sample districts. Two questions were answered. (1) What is the nature of the compliance and changes in the districts studied as a result of the efforts to comply with the PER …
