GIS Data for Geologic Map of the Northernmost Park Range and Southernmost Sierra Madre, Jackson and Routt Counties, Colorado GIS Data for Geologic Map of the Northernmost Park Range and Southernmost Sierra Madre, Jackson and Routt Counties, Colorado

This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) data release provides a digital geospatial database for the geologic map of the northernmost Park Range and southernmost Sierra Madre, Jackson and Routt Counties, Colorado (Snyder, 1980). Attribute tables and geospatial features (points, lines, and polygons) conform to the Geologic Map Schema (USGS NCGMP, 2020) and represent the geologic map as...

Digital database of previously published subsurface unit tops from the three-dimensional geologic model used for the 2003 National Oil and Gas Assessment of the San Joaquin Basin Province, California Digital database of previously published subsurface unit tops from the three-dimensional geologic model used for the 2003 National Oil and Gas Assessment of the San Joaquin Basin Province, California

This data release provides digital geospatial data related to the three-dimensional geologic model (Hosford Scheirer, 2013) that was used as a framework for conducting the 2003 oil and gas assessment of the San Joaquin Basin province, California (Gautier and others, 2004; Hosford Scheirer, ed., 2007). The data release includes raster GeoTIFF files of the tops of the 15 composite geologic...

Digital database for the Geologic map of the Mohave Mountains area, Mohave County, western Arizona Digital database for the Geologic map of the Mohave Mountains area, Mohave County, western Arizona

This geologic database is a digitized version of the original 1:48,000-scale analog geologic map titled "Geologic map of the Mohave Mountains area, Mohave County, western Arizona", published by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in 1999. The Mohave Mountains area surrounds Lake Havasu City, Arizona, in the Basin and Range physiographic province. The Mohave Mountains and the Aubrey Hills...

Digital database of the previously published Geologic Map of Alabama (Special Map 221) Digital database of the previously published Geologic Map of Alabama (Special Map 221)

A digital version of the 1:500,000 scale geologic map of Alabama (Osborne and others, 1989) was required for a new national compilation of state geologic maps and U.S. Geological Survey regional maps, but the map had not previously been digitized. The USGS National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program’s (NCGMP) National Geologic Synthesis Project worked with the Geological Survey of...

Surficial geologic map database of the southeast 3/4 of the Las Vegas 1-degree by 2-degree quadrangle, southern Nevada: Contributions to the National Geologic Map Surficial geologic map database of the southeast 3/4 of the Las Vegas 1-degree by 2-degree quadrangle, southern Nevada: Contributions to the National Geologic Map

This data release presents geologic map data for the surficial geology of the Overton, Lake Mead, and Las Vegas 30-minute by 60-minute quadrangles, Arizona, Utah, and Nevada. This 1:100,000 scale geologic mapping incorporates new interpretive contributions and compilation from 1:24,000 to 1:250,000 scale published geologic map data sources. Geology incorporated from previous mapping has...

Borehole information from the lower Colorado River corridor, Arizona, Nevada, and California Borehole information from the lower Colorado River corridor, Arizona, Nevada, and California

This data release provides location information and lithologic intervals for boreholes compiled by the USGS between 2016 and 2020 for use during subsurface geologic mapping of the lower Colorado River corridor. The data provided include a spreadsheet of borehole information, that contains the well name, the information source, and positional information regarding the well location. A...

Georectified mosaic of historical aerial photographs of the Colorado River in Palo Verde Valley, Arizona and California, acquired in 1930 Georectified mosaic of historical aerial photographs of the Colorado River in Palo Verde Valley, Arizona and California, acquired in 1930

This product is a georectified and tonally balanced mosaic of aerial photographs collected in 1930 by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation along a portion of the floodplain of the Colorado River in Palo Verde Valley, Arizona and California. This dataset is a primary resource for the development of a surficial geologic map showing the floodplain and river channel characteristics along the...

Cooperative National Geologic Map: Precambrian geology Cooperative National Geologic Map: Precambrian geology

The USGS National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program (NCGMP) was directed by Congress to create a new geologic map of the United States” by “bring[ing] together detailed national and continental-resolution 2D and 3D information produced throughout the Survey and by federal and state partners” (House Report 116-100). To fulfill this goal, the NCGMP created a map synthesis engine...

K-Ar and Ar-Ar age data for some Cenozoic and pre-Cenozoic rocks in the eastern Mojave Desert area and southern Sierra Nevada, southwestern United States K-Ar and Ar-Ar age data for some Cenozoic and pre-Cenozoic rocks in the eastern Mojave Desert area and southern Sierra Nevada, southwestern United States

We report rock and mineral K-Ar isotopic dates from 55 Cenozoic rocks and 49 pre-Cenozoic rocks from the eastern Mojave Desert in southeastern California, Nevada, and Arizona and 3 pre-Cenozoic rocks from the southern Sierra Nevada, California. For many of the samples two separate minerals were dated. We also report Ar-Ar dates from 7 pre-Cenozoic rocks in the eastern Mojave Desert.
