Preliminary thermal-maturity map of the Cameo and Fairfield or equivalent coal zone in the Piceance Creek Basin, Colorado

This map was prepared in cooperation with the U.S. Department of Energy's Western Gas Sands Project and was constructed to show the thermal maturity of the Upper Cretaceous Mesaverde Formation (or Group) in the Piceance Creek Basin. The ability of a source rock to generate oil and gas is directly related to its kerogen content and thermal maturity; hence, thermal maturity is commonly used as an ex

Quaternary geologic map of the Chicago 4 degrees x 6 degrees quadrangle, United States

The Quaternary Geologic Map of the Chicago 4 degree x 6 degree Quadrangle was mapped as part of the Quaternary Geologic Atlas of the United States. The atlas was begun as an effort to depict the areal distribution of surficial geologic deposits and other materials that accumulated or formed during the past 2+ million years, the period that includes all activities of the human species. These materi

Reconnaissance geochemical maps of the Gee Creek Wilderness, Polk and Monroe counties, Tennessee

The reconnaissance geochemical survey of the Gee Creek Wilderness included the collection of 26 rock samples and 26 soil samples (fig. 2) and 61 bulk stream-sediment samples (fig. 4). These were analyzed for 34 elements, among which are the more common metals that potentially could occur in economic concentrations. 

Reconnaissance geologic map of the Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness, Idaho County, Idaho, and Missoula and Ravalli counties, Montana

The Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness covers about 1.25 million acres in east-central Idaho and western Montana (fig. 1). The wilderness lies across the Bitterroot Range, which forms the boundary between Idaho and Montana, and includes large portions of the drainages of the Selway, Lochsa, and Bitterroot Rivers. Elevations range from 1,800 ft on the Selway River near the wilderness boundary to 10,157 f
