Underground Stratigraphy Of Montana, Virgil R. Chamberlain
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
The purpose of this thesis is to study the subsurface stratigraphy of the state of Montana from information acquired from well logs, composite logs, and measured sections. Underground stratigraphy is important for the intelligent prospecting for oil, gas, or water. A knowledge of the strata beneath us can be gathered only by measurements of numerous outcrops or by deep drilling with careful sampling or logging of the formations passed through.

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
In the vicinity of Limespur, Montana, a siding along the Northern Pacific Railroad near Whitehall, Montana, occurs a characteristic type of arkose where in many small red mineral grains are distributed throughout the rock mass. It is in this respect that this arkose differs from other arkoses in the surrounding region.

The Geology Of The Southern Central Portion Of The Morrison Cave Area., Arthur Talpt
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
Morrison Cave is located about 50 miles southeast of Butte, Montana. It was named after the man who discovered it. Later it was taken over by the State and renamed Morrison Cave State Park.
