UNLV Theses, Dissertations, Professional Papers, and Capstones

The Arch Mountain area of northwestern Mohave County, Arizona, is typified by rocks that range from Precambrian to Quatemary in age. Arch mountain is a north-trending horst bounded on the west by the Petroglyph Wash graben and on the east by the Virgin Basin. A low-angle normal fault, herein named the Arch Mountain detachment fault, is exposed for 6 km along strike just below the ridge crest of Arch Mountain, and it is typified by a 2-20 cm thick zone of hematite-impregnated breccia and cataclasite. The detachment fault places an upper plate of Precambrian gneiss, Paleozoic quartzite, shale and dolomite, …

Surficial Geologic Map Of The East Cache Fault Zone, Cache County, Utah, James P. Mccalpin

James P. McCalpin

The 1:50,000-scale map shows surficial geologic deposits and the faults that displace them along the East Cache fault zone in northern Utah. The East Cache fault is a north-trending normal fault that extends about 77 km along the eastern side of Cache Valley (an east-tilted graben) at the base of the Bear River Range. The map includes a description of Quaternary deposits along the fault zone, a description of the fault segments, and estimates of the age, size, and distribution of fault scarps in the fault zone.
