Potassium-argon ages from the Mount Taylor Volcanic Field, New Mexico Potassium-argon ages from the Mount Taylor Volcanic Field, New Mexico
Fourteen new K-Ar dates for volcanic rocks of the Mount Taylor field, New Mexico, indicate that most activity occurred between 4.3 and 1.5 m.y. (million years) ago. Peak activity was at about 3.0-2.5 m.y., both on the central andesite-rhyolite shield volcano and on the surrounding alkali basalt-trachyte volcanic plateau, and occurred concurrently with an episode of NNE-trending basin...

Late Cenozoic volcanism, geochronology, and structure of the Coso Range, Inyo County, California Late Cenozoic volcanism, geochronology, and structure of the Coso Range, Inyo County, California
The Coso Range lies at the west edge of the Great Basin, adjacent to the southern part of the Sierra Nevada. A basement complex of pre‐Cenozoic plutonic and metamorphic rocks is partly buried by ∼35 km3 of late Cenozoic volcanic rocks that were erupted during two periods, as defined by K‐Ar dating: (1) 4.0–2.5 m.y., ∼31 km3 of basalt, rhyodacite, dacite, andesite, and rhyolite, in...

Distribution of Quaternary rhyolite domes of the Coso Range, California: implications for extent of the geothermal anomaly. Distribution of Quaternary rhyolite domes of the Coso Range, California: implications for extent of the geothermal anomaly.
38 separate domes and flows of phenocryst-poor, high-silica rhyolite of similar major element chemical composition were erupted over the past 1My from vents arranged in a crudely S-shaped array atop a granitic horst in the Coso Range, California. Most of the extrusions are probably less than about 0.3My old. The central part of the rhyolite field is characterized by high heat flow, low...
