A Study Of The Divide-Dewey Contact Of The Boulder Batholith, Francis M. Young Jun 1950

A Study Of The Divide-Dewey Contact Of The Boulder Batholith, Francis M. Young

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The batholith is dated as Paleocene or early Eocene. The rocks of the batholith in this area are classified as ranging from quartz-granodiorite to granodiorite. Variation in mineral content causes a chance in color tone from light to dark gray. swarms of inclusions occur in the igneous rock near the contact.


Basic Information In The Granitic Rocks Of The Boulder Batholith, Clifford G. Sherwin May 1941

Basic Information In The Granitic Rocks Of The Boulder Batholith, Clifford G. Sherwin

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Dark fine grained basic masses of rock are found in nearly every part of the Boulder Batholith, these commonly being referred to as inclusions, segregations, autoliths, and various other names. The origin, distribution, and composition of the dark inclusions form the basis for this report.


Attempted Proofs Of The Differentiation Of Magmas By Syntexis, Clifford Wendel May 1935

Attempted Proofs Of The Differentiation Of Magmas By Syntexis, Clifford Wendel

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

This investigation was an effort to obtain proof of the much disputed principle that most of the observed magĀ­netic differentiations have been due to the assimilation, or syntexis, of the intruded country rocks.
