Measured stratigraphic sections of Jurassic San Rafael Group and adjacent rocks in Emery and Sevier counties, Utah

January 1, 1979

These sections were measured prior to 1960, before adoption of the metric system. Publication was delayed by other assignments of the authors and later by the untimely death of J. C. Wright. They are being released at this time because of the increased interest in the uranium potential of Jurassic rocks. The Curtis, Summerville, Entrada, and Carmel Formations are the formations of the San Rafael Group in these sections.
