Maps showing mines, prospects, and mineral sites in the Tray Mountain Roadless Area and vicinity, Northern Georgia Maps showing mines, prospects, and mineral sites in the Tray Mountain Roadless Area and vicinity, Northern Georgia

The Tray Mountain Roadless Area, a 36,300-acre tract in the Chattahoochee National Forest, northeastern Georgia, lies within the Blue Redge physiographic province. The roadless area is composed of Precambrian(?)-age metamorphic rocks from two tectonic units, the Hayesville thrust sheet and the "Helen belt" (Nelson, 1982) (fig. 1). The Hayesville thrust sheet consists mostly of biotite...

Maps showing sea-floor topography, depth to bedrock, and sediment thickness, Penobscot Bay, Maine Maps showing sea-floor topography, depth to bedrock, and sediment thickness, Penobscot Bay, Maine

This report presents results of a high-resolution seismic-reflection survey conducted by the U.S. Geological Survey to determine the subbottom characteristics of Penobscot Bay, Maine. Penobscot Bay is one of the major embayments along the U.S. Atlantic coast (fig. 1), extending more than 50 km from the Gulf of Maine to the mouth of the Penobscot River. The bay constitutes an area of...

Maps showing water geochemistry of the Buffalo Peaks Wilderness Study Area, Lake, Park, and Chaffee Counties, Colorado Maps showing water geochemistry of the Buffalo Peaks Wilderness Study Area, Lake, Park, and Chaffee Counties, Colorado

This report presents results of geochemical studies carried out in June and July of 1982 in the Buffalo Peaks Wilderness Study Area, Colo. (see index map). Samples of water were collected from 84 streams and 18 springs draining the study area. Tabulations of the analyses and a sample locality map are in Ficklin and others (1984). The geochemistry of stream sediments and panned...
