A topology of mineralization and its meaning for prospecting A topology of mineralization and its meaning for prospecting

Epigenetic mineral deposits are universal members of an orderly spatial and temporal arrangement of igneous rocks, endomorphic rocks, and hydrothermally altered rocks. The association and sequence of these rocks is invariant whereas the metric relations and configurations of the properties of these rocks are unlimited in variety. This characterization satisfies the doctrines of topology...

Post 12 m.y. rotation of southwest Washington Post 12 m.y. rotation of southwest Washington

Paleomagnetic field directions from the basalt of Pack Sack Lookout are compared to those from the Pomona Member of the Saddle Mountains Basalt of the Columbia River Basalt Group. The Pomona crops out over a wide region on the Columbia Plateau east of the Cascade Range, and the basalt of Pack Sack Lookout crops out well to the west of the Cascades about 30 to 60 km east of the Washington...

A geologic reconnaissance of the Cycladic blueschist belt, Greece A geologic reconnaissance of the Cycladic blueschist belt, Greece

The Cycladic blueschist belt consists of two distinctive segments separated by a broad zone of superposed granitic and high-temperature metamorphic rocks. The northern segment contains early metamorphic fold axes and parallel glaucophane lineations that trend ∼060° with a progressive increase in metamorphism toward the southeast. The southern segment contains similar fold axes and...
