Download or read book Geology of the Sheeprock Thrust Sheet Central Utah New Insights written by Malay Mukul and published by Utah Geological Survey. This book was released on 1998 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Proterozoic sedimentary rocks in the Sheeprock and the adjacent West Tintic Mountains in northcentral Utah were thought to be deformed and transported along the Sheeprock and Pole Canyon thrusts during the Cretaceous to early Tertiary Sevier Orogeny. Evidence from the observed stratigraphy, stratigraphic separation diagrams, downplunge projections of the structure, large-scale relationships between bedding and cleavage orientations, microstructural observations and finite strain data indicate that the Pole Canyon and the Sheeprock thrusts are the same fault, the Sheeprock thrust. The Sheeprock thrust was folded into a gentle synform and subsequently offset by motion along the Indian Springs fault. Based on the offset pattern of the folded Sheeprock thrust along the Indian Springs fault and multiple slickenlines on the Indian Springs fault, two components of motion are recognized; a dextral strike-slip component and a dip-slip component of motion where the southern block is downthrown. The relative age between the two components is not clear.

Download or read book Geology of Millard County Utah written by Lehi F. Hintze and published by Utah Geological Survey. This book was released on 2003 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This bulletin serves not only to introduce the non-geologist to the rich geology of Millard County, but also to provide professional geologists with technical information on the stratigraphy, paleontology, and structural geology of the county. Millard County is unique among Utah’s counties in that it contains an exceptionally complete billion-year geologic record. This happened because until about 200 million years ago the area of present-day Millard County lay near sea level and was awash in shallow marine waters on a continental shelf upon which a stack of fossil-bearing strata more than 6 miles (10 km) thick slowly accumulated. This bulletin summarizes what is known about these strata, as well as younger rocks and surficial deposits in the county, and provides references to scientific papers that describe them in greater detail. Mountains North 30 x 60 (1:100,000-scale) quadrangles. These companion maps and this bulletin portray the geology of Millard County more completely and accurately than any previously published work.

Download or read book Selected Mining Districts of Utah written by Carl L. Ege and published by Utah Geological Survey. This book was released on 2005 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether you are a geologist, history buff, or rockhound, this booklet will be a helpful guide to Utah?s mining districts. The booklet is divided up into three parts: the first part provides general information on what a mining district is, how many mining districts are in Utah, types of mineral deposits found at these districts, and landownership issues. The second part includes individual mining-district discussions containing information on location, production, history, geology, mineralogy, and current/future operations. The third part includes a glossary of geologic terms and other useful resources in the appendices, such as a descriptive list of minerals found in the districts, geologic time scale, and a list of mineral resources of the mining districts.
