Creator:

Schalla, Robert Allen

Abstract:

Paleozoic dolomites, limestones, and detrital clastic rocks were mapped in the Bellevue Peak 15 minute quadrangle in the southern Mahogany Hills, Nevada. Sedimentary rock units in this area represent shallow-shelf eastern assemblage deposits. Shallow-shelf carbonates characterized deposition from at least Ordovician through Late Devonian time, when clastics derived from the...

Stratigraphy and structure of the southern Sulphur Spring Range, Eureka County, Nevada

Creator:

Lipka, Joseph T.

Abstract:

Early Paleozoic limestones and dolomites of the shallow shelf transitional facies belt were mapped in the southern Sulphur Spring Range, Eureka County, Nevada. The four youngest units in the map area are in fault contact with the Lower Devonian rocks and were probably transported westward, along a low-angle normal fault....
