Geology and Mineral Resources of the Northern Part of the North Cascades National Park, Washington Geology and Mineral Resources of the Northern Part of the North Cascades National Park, Washington

The northern part of the North Cascades National Park in northern Washington is north of the Skagit River between Mount Shuksan on the West and Ross Lake on the east. The area occupies approximately 500 square miles of steep mountains and thickly forested valleys centered on the precipitous Picket Range. Old metamorphic rocks and young volcanic and sedimentary rocks are intruded by large...

The earthquake sequence near Danville, California, 1970 The earthquake sequence near Danville, California, 1970

Several thousand small earthquakes, with magnitudes ranging up to 4, occurred near Danville, California, during May, June, and July 1970. Seven temporary seismographs were installed near the epicentral region to augment an existing telemetered network within 1 day after the first felt earthquake. The dense concentration of 10 seismographs within 12 km of the seismic activity and the...

Impact breccias in carbonate rocks, Sierra Madera, Texas Impact breccias in carbonate rocks, Sierra Madera, Texas

Two main types of deformational breccia occur in the Sierra Madera cryptoexplosion structure: monolithologic breccias composed of shattered rock of a single lithology and mixed breccias composed of rocks of several lithologies. Monolithologic breccias generally show no mineralogic signs of shock deformation, but a few samples are shatter-coned in a manner suggesting simultaneous...
