Book Unusual Central Nevada Geologic Terranes Produced by Late Devonian Antler Orogeny and Alamo Impact

Download or read book Unusual Central Nevada Geologic Terranes Produced by Late Devonian Antler Orogeny and Alamo Impact written by Forrest G. Poole and published by Geological Society of America. This book was released on 2015-10-08 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This volume is the product of nearly 25 years of geologic investigations. It is an exposition of two small areas, both less than 25 km from the front of the Mississippian Roberts Mountains thrust, but each displaying a different, unique geologic terrane, previously undocumented in Nevada and perhaps in North America"--

Book Structure of the Roberts Mountains Allochthon in the Three Bar Ranch Quadrangle  Roberts Mountains  Eureka County  Nevada

Download or read book Structure of the Roberts Mountains Allochthon in the Three Bar Ranch Quadrangle Roberts Mountains Eureka County Nevada written by Charles Lawrence Fair and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: The Roberts Mountains allochthon (RMA), the underlying autochthonous rocks, and post-orogenic strata were mapped in the Three Bar Ranch Quadrangle, Eureka County Nevada. This study demonstrates that the Ordovician Vinini Formation was structurally emplaced above the Devonian Woodruff Formation, which, in turn, was structurally emplaced over the Mississippian Webb Formation. This is consistent with the hypothesis that the RMA was emplaced on two major, telescoping thrust surfaces during the Antler orogeny. Furthermore, imbricate thrusting with the RMA further interleaved the Woodruff and Vinini formations during emplacement. Large outliers of Devonian carbonate strata of the autochthon that stand topographically above surrounding strata of the RMA were thrust into place as pieces in the lower part of the upper plate of a post-Antler east-vergent thrust, the Henderson Creek thrust fault, a post-Antler, east-vergent thrust that duplicated the structural-stratigraphic package of the RMA.

Book Origin of Devonian Rock Units in the Southern Fish Creek Range  Nye County  Nevada

Download or read book Origin of Devonian Rock Units in the Southern Fish Creek Range Nye County Nevada written by Roger Stephen Sans and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the southern Fish Creek Range, Nye County Nevada, Devonian rocks are found overlying younger rocks. These Devonian units are allochthonous blocks that slid by gravity into their present positions. The allochthonous blocks represent several different provenances commonly found to the west and northwest of the area. The blocks include Denay Limestone, a stromatoporoid-bearing limestone, Beacon Peak Dolomite, Oxyoke Canyon Formation, and undetermined limestone and mudstone. During the Late Devonian these units were incorporated into the Roberts Mountains allochthon as it added outer-shelf carbonates then inner-shelf carbonate and clastic rocks to its base by an eastward-stepping mechanism. The Devonian blocks of the thesis area are large blocks that detached from the front of the moving Roberts Mountains allochthon and slid eastward into the Mississippian foreland trough.
