The Bonneville Salt Flats and east part of the Wendover 30' x 60' quadrangles extend along the Interstate highway 80 (I-80) cor- ridor in northwestern Tooele County, northwest Utah (figure 1). The map area is in the eastern Basin and Range Province; on the west it includes the city of Wendover, the Leppy Hills, Silver Island Mountains, Floating Island, Pilot Valley, and a small part of the Pilot Range; on the east are the Grassy Mountains, Grassy Ridge, Finger Ridge, Grayback Hills, Thumb Ridge, other low hills, Ripple Valley, Lone Mountain (informal name after Maurer, 1970), and a small part of the western Cedar Mountains; the central part includes the Desert and southern tip of the Newfoundland Mountains (figure 1). Part of the desert includes the Bonneville Salt Flats, a salt pan known for vehicular land speed records at the Bonneville Speedway. Most of the map area is public land (Federal and State administered) and restricted-access military land (U.S. Air Force ranges, also known as UTTR—Utah Test and Training Ranges). Smaller areas of private land are used for waste management and potash extraction.

This geologic map is part of an ongoing effort by the Utah Geological Survey (UGS) to map the geology of the state of Utah at an intermediate scale (see Willis, 2017). This map displays three of work on a multi-year project to map the geology of the Bonneville Salt Flats 30' x 60' quadrangle and the Utah part of the Wendover 30' x 60' quadrangle at 1:62,500 scale (plate 1, figure 1). The map explanation includes a booklet containing geologic unit descriptions, acknowledgments, references, figures and tables, and also includes plate 2 showing primary sources of geologic mapping, geologic units, unit correlations, lithologic columns, and geologic symbols.

Map data were compiled from several prior sources and new mapping has been added (see plate 2, mapping sources). Clark compiled and mapped the bedrock and surficial-deposit (Quaternary) geology with assistance from Oviatt. Hardwick compiled geophysical gravity data and assisted with interpretation (details below). Page provided some of the delta distributary channel mapping data. We extended intermediate-scale geologic mapping from adjacent areas including Dugway Proving Ground and UTTR South (Clark and others, 2016), Rush Valley 30' x 60' quadrangle (Clark and others, 2012, in preparation), Tooele 30' x 60' quadrangle (Clark and others, 2017, in press), and Newfoundland Mountains 30' x 60' quadrangle and adjacent Wells strip in Utah (Miller and others, in press). This map updates prior, less detailed (1:250,000 scale) geologic maps by Stokes (1963) and Moore and Sorensen (1979). Additional revisions to this map could occur in subsequent years of the project. Future work will involve collaboration with U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) geoscientists who mapped the geology of the Silver Island Mountains and adjacent areas in the northwestern part of the map area.

Hardwick compiled gravity data for this map area from the Pan-American Center for Earth and Environmental Studies (PAC- ES) (2012) and from the UGS (collected 2011–2014 with a Scintrex CG-5 autograv gravimeter and high-precision GPS survey units [vertical resolution 0.1 m or better]) (UGS, unpublished data). The computed final data values are Complete Bouguer Gravity Anomaly (CBGA) calculated using a reduction density of 2.76 g/cm3 (average crustal density). Principal gravity val- ues from PACES data were checked against UGS GPS survey data and Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) elevations (vertical resolution 3.53 m, horizontal grid size 90 m) for errors. Suspect PACES data were either adjusted for gravity anomaly corrections (Free Air, Bouguer Slab, Zone Terrain) or removed before recomputing CBGA in order to mesh the legacy PACES data with the modern UGS data. The final data were gridded in ArcGIS Pro for both small-cell and large-cell formats using Inverse Distance Weighting (power of 2). CBGA contours of 1 milliGal (mGal) were generated in ARCGIS Pro and “bullseye” contours were removed for closed areas of contours under 4 kilometers (2.5 miles) in circumference and with less than three data points (suspect data excluded). A substantial area of the Utah Test and Training Range (UTTR) South is lacking gravity coverage due to access restrictions while some areas with less dense data exist on the UTTR North. The composite CBGA raster and contour data were used for viewing and interpreting the gravity field data. Clark and Hardwick placed faults at “half max” locations between high and low contours and extended them into areas of less dense data. An east-west-trending gravity lineament was also mapped in the gravity data characterized by a series of saddles and lows. The gravity anomaly data appear to generally fit well with observations of the surface geology and topography, and respective density values. We also consulted reports by Smith and others (2011, 2012). On the UTTR, however, subsurface geologic control is generally poor over much of the map area. Three faults were extended south from the Newfoundland Mountains 30' x 60' quadrangle in an area of sparse gravity data.

Part of a proprietary 2D seismic line for hydrocarbon exploration (E-SOH-NUL81-1D) was present in the map area. The line runs from near the central Bonneville Salt Flats to the northern Stansbury Mountains in an east-southeast direction. R.W. Keach II (UGS) contacted Seismic Exchange Inc. in Denver, , to view a small portion of the line, which was determined to be of poor quality.

DESCRIPTION OF GEOLOGIC UNITS

QUATERNARY SURFICIAL DEPOSITS

See tables 1 and 2 and Oviatt and others (2020) for sediment and tephrochronology data on surficial deposits in the map area.

Alluvial Deposits

Qal Stream alluvium () – Primarily clay, silt, and sand with some gravel lenses deposited by streams in chan- nels, but in mountain valleys (Silver Island, Grassy and western Cedar Mountains) deposits are coarser grained and associated with more colluvium; locally merges with alluvial-fan deposits; locally includes alluvial-fan, colluvial, low-level terrace, lacustrine, and eolian deposits; thickness generally less than about 20 feet (6 m).

Qafy Younger fan alluvium, post-Lake Bonneville (Holocene to uppermost ) – Poorly sorted gravel, sand, silt, and clay; deposited by streams, debris flows, and debris floods on alluvial fans and in mountain valleys; includes alluvium and colluvium in mountain valleys; locally grades into unit Qal and also unit Qai in lacustrine lagoons; may include small areas of lacustrine fine-grained deposits below the Bonneville shoreline; includes active and inactive fans younger than Lake Bonneville, but may include older alluvial deposits above the Bonneville shoreline; locally includes eolian silt and sand cover commonly less than 6 feet (2 m) thick; locally, unit Qafy spreads out on lake ter- races and, due to limitations of map scale, is shown to abut Lake Bonneville shorelines even though it is not cut by these shorelines; Qafy also locally drapes over, but does not completely conceal shorelines; thickness variable, up to 50 feet (15 m) or more.

Qafo Older fan alluvium, pre-Lake Bonneville (upper to middle? Pleistocene) – Small area near Silver Island Canyon on northwest map border of poorly sorted gravel, sand, silt, and clay; similar to unit Qafy, but locally consolidated with carbonate and forms higher-level incised deposits located above the high-stand of Lake Bonneville and locally etched by the lake; Qafo fans are incised by younger alluvial deposits; also mapped as stacked unit Qes/Qafo; thickness as much as 100 feet (30 m).

Qai Alluvial silt (Holocene to upper Pleistocene?) – Silt, clay, some sand, and minor gravel deposited by streams and sheet wash in former lagoons related to Lake Bonneville shorelines; locally, bottom of lagoonal basins may include exposed or unexposed, thin, fine-grained lacustrine deposits; thickness less than about 20 feet (6 m).

Qasd Alluvial sand of Old River Bed delta (lower Holocene to uppermost Pleistocene) – Sand and silt, locally with gravel and mud, present in numerous, commonly interweaving, distributary channels that extend northward on mudflats between the Old River Bed and the southern Great Salt Lake Desert (see Madsen and others, 2015; Clark and others, 2016); channels are locally exposed due to deflation of mudflat surfaces; selected channels were mapped to show their geographic distribution, and are depicted solely as green lines on plate 1; unit Qasd is probably related to continued Sevier-basin overflow and to groundwater discharge following the decline of Lake Bonneville; ages of 8800 to 11,400 14C yr B.P. (about 10,000 to 13,000 cal yr B.P.) (Oviatt and others, 2003; Madsen and others, 2015); thickness to about 3 feet (1 m).

Spring Deposits

Qsm Spring and marsh deposits (Holocene) – Clay, silt, and sand that is variably organic-rich, calcareous, or saline; pres- ent in ephemerally or perennially saturated (marshy) areas near springs and seeps; form extensive areas mapped near Blue Lake; thickness 0 to about 10 feet (0–3 m).

Eolian Deposits

Qes, Qes?

Eolian sand (Holocene) – Windblown sand, silt and mud pellets in dunes and sheets; bedding is variable from lami- nated to thin, with abundant cross-bedding; includes well-sorted, fine to very fine grained quartz sand, and also coarse to very fine grained sand of variable composition including gypsum, ooids, carbonate lumps, and shell fragments (gas- tropods and ostracodes); some gypsum compositions are reported to be as much as 60 percent (Jones, 1953; Boden, Interim geologic map of the Bonneville Salt Flats and east part of the Wendover 30' x 60' quadrangles, Tooele County, Utah—year 3 3

2016); we noted the dune sand composition in several locations was variable and did not map gypsum or quartz dunes separately for this project; Miller and others (in press) mapped sand dunes and sheets composed of mud pellets along the margin of the southern Newfoundland Mountains; a local source of sand for Qes accumulations is the Old River Bed delta channel (see unit Qasd); several prior reports noted eolian sand dunes of the Great Salt Lake Desert area (Nolan, 1927; Jones, 1953; Eardley, 1962; Doelling, 1964; Stifel, 1964; Dean, 1976, 1978; Doelling and others, 1994; Boden, 2016); grades into unit Qei; Qes locally forms thin cover on map units (see stacked units), only thicker deposits mapped as unit Qes; as much as 90 feet (25 m) thick.

Qei, Qei?

Playa Deposits

Qps Playa salt (Holocene) – The salt crust at Bonneville Salt Flats composed of interbedded halite (36%) and gypsum sand (64%); salt crust is white to light gray brown and is hard to brittle to plastic depending on water content; lateral extent and thickness of salt crust is continually changing due to flooding, evaporation and dessication (FED) cycles (Bowen and others, 2017); mapped extent of salt crust is from September 7, 2016 data (figure 4, Bowen and others, 2018), note the boundary of crystalline salt historically extended onto and adjacent to the potash production facility area south of Salduro (Gwynn, 1996); salt crust is underlain by pre-Lake Bonneville carbonate mud (Bowen and others, 2018; Oviatt and others, 2020; Bernau and Bowen, in prep.); unit Qps thickness from 0 to 5 feet (0–1.5 m) based on five salt crust thickness studies since 1960 (see recent studies by White and Terrazas, 2006 and Bowen and others, 2018).

Lacustrine and Deltaic Deposits (Lake Bonneville)

See figure 2 for a simplified hydrograph and chronology of Lake Bonneville. Currey (1982) and Chen and Maloof (2017) pro- vided shoreline elevation data, and Oviatt estimated Stansbury shoreline elevations using Google Earth® (see plate 2). Lake Bonneville was succeeded by a lake during the Gilbert episode (figure 2), but these deposits are localized, generally thin, and difficult to recognize. Other post-Bonneville lakes that were high enough to flood into the Great Salt Lake Desert basin from Great Salt Lake (threshold elevation ~4217 feet [1286 m]) are not dated, did not last long, and did not leave an obvious sedi- mentary record.

Qhw Waste management facilities (historical) – Deposits, disturbed areas, and borrow areas of waste management fa- cilities within the West Desert Hazardous Industry Area (see Black and others, 1999); includes (1) Grassy Mountain landfill, located north of Knolls (hazardous waste, operated by Clean Harbors Environmental), and (2) Clive landfill (low-level radioactive and mixed hazardous and radioactive waste, operated by Energy Solutions) and adjacent U.S. Department of Energy Vitro Tailings disposal site; waste management area thicknesses are variable, but locally to as much as 65 feet (20 m) above ground at the Grassy Mountain facility, and 46 to 85 feet (14–26 m) (both below and above ground) at the Clive facility (Ed Costomiris and Charles Bishop, Utah Department of Environmental Quality, communications to Clark, 2018).

Qhe Evaporation ponds (historical) – Includes three evaporation system areas. First is an inactive pond system formerly operated by Amax (predecessor to Magcorp and US Magnesium) located north of Knolls; in the 1980s excess Great Salt Lake water was pumped via the West Desert pumping station (west of Lakeside) to the Newfoundland evaporation basin and subsequently transferred to the evaporation ponds—a series of diked areas used to concentrate magnesium minerals (salts) through solar evaporation (Jones and others, 2009; Tripp, 2009); second is a former potash production facility (Chloride Products Inc., 1921–1925) located south of the Arinosa rail siding (Gwynn, 1996); third is the active Intrepid Potash facility and historical operations of the Salduro salt marsh located southeast of Wendover; the Intrepid facility (2004 to present) extracts brine from wells and trenches, transports the brine to their solar evaporation pond system, and processes potassium chloride salts largely for agricultural fertilizer (Eric Rogers, Intrepid Potash Wendo- ver, verbal communication, October 11, 2019); prior potash production near Intrepid and farther east near Salduro was by several entities with attempts from about 1907 to the 1930s, but with consistent commercial production from 1939 to 2004 (Gwynn, 1996; Kipnis and Bowen, 2018); thickness is typically less than 6 feet (<2 m).

Oquirrh Group, sandstone and limestone unit (lower Permian, Leonardian?-Wolfcampian to Upper Pennsylvanian, uppermost Virgilian) – Light- to dark-brown sandstone, gray calcareous sandstone that weathers to light and dark brown, and light- to dark-gray limestone and fossiliferous limestone that is locally siliceous; local intraformational conglomer- ate beds; medium to thick bedded, forms slopes and ledges; fossil fusulinids and conodonts (table 6) were reported to indicate an early Leonardian through early Wolfcampian age (Doelling, 1964; Jordan, 1979a, 1979b; this study); G.P. Wahlman (independent biostratigrapher, written communication to Clark, May 13, 2019) reevaluated the fusulinid data in Doelling (1964) and reported some issues including Triticites ranging too high in the section suggesting probable juvenaria of Wolfcampian Pseudoschwagerina, and the fusulinids listed as indicating lower Leonardian strata are ques- tionable; Wahlman also reported that the former early Wolfcampian interval (lower part of Doelling’s unit 3 and upper part of unit 2) is now transferred to the latest Virgilian “Bursumian/Newwellian” (see, for example, Wahlman, 2013; table 6); Clark (this study) reevaluated exposures just south of the map area on the Aragonite thrust sheet and found that fossil sample D-74 with Parafusulina (Leonardian) (Clark and others, 2016; Utah Geological Survey and Wells, 2017) appears to be from upper Oquirrh Group beds rather than from the overlying map unit; Doelling (1964) reported other fossils include crinoids, brachiopods, pelecypods, , , and bryozoans; unit is queried in area northwest of Calcite thrust fault and probable backthrust where brecciated; unit P*os corresponds to Oquirrh Formation units 6, 5, 4, 3 and upper part of unit 2 of Doelling (1964); complete thickness is 7620 to 9004 feet (2323–2745 m) in Grassy Mountains (Doelling, 1964), but only 1500 feet (460 m) in Lone Mountain (this study) on a different thrust sheet.

Pequop Formation is medium- to dark-gray, silty bioclastic limestone, lesser yellow and gray siltstone and sandstone, light-gray dolomite, and lime- stone with chert pebbles; bedding is thin to thick, typically forming slopes with some ledges and cliffs; fusulinid and crinoid columnal fossils and white calcite blebs are diagnostic; incomplete thickness about 2330 feet (710 m) (see Steele, 1959, 1960; Schaeffer and Anderson, 1960; Bissell, 1964; Schneyer, 1990); underlying Ferguson Mountain Formation (after Hodgkinson, 1961; Bissell, 1962; Schneyer, 1990) consists of gray bioclastic and argillaceous limestone and dolomite with chert nodules near base and top; bedding is thin to thick forming slopes and ledges; less than 100 to 180 feet (<30–55 m) thick in the Leppy Hills and Silver Island Mountains (also see Schaeffer and Ander- son, 1960; Steele, 1960); however, Schaeffer and Anderson (1960) and Miller and others (in progress) indicate this interval changes dramatically from north to south and is difficult to separate from the Pequop Formation; different nomenclature was previously used for the Ferguson Mountain (Schaeffer and Anderson, 1960; Steele, 1960); basal Strathearn Formation locally includes an upper part of gray limestone and dolomitic limestone, red and yellowish- brown sandstone and siltstone, and lower part of distinctive brownish-gray pebble conglomerate with chert and limestone clasts in a pink silty limestone matrix; in several areas of the Silver Island Mountains formation is a single Interim geologic map of the Bonneville Salt Flats and east part of the Wendover 30' x 60' quadrangles, Tooele County, Utah—year 3 13

bed of conglomerate; bedding is thin to medium forming ledges and slopes; Strathearn thickness is variable from 0.3 to 150 feet (0.1–45 m) (Schaeffer and Anderson, 1960; Miller and others, in progress; this study); fusulinid fossils from the Pequop and Ferguson Mountain Formations at the Leppy Hills and Silver Island Mountains were originally reported to range from early Guadalupian to Leonardian to Wolfcampian in age (Steele, 1959, 1960; Steele and oth- ers in Schaeffer and Anderson, 1960), but the two formations are considered Leonardian, Wolfcampian and Upper Virgilian at Ferguson Mountain, Nevada (Berge, 1960; Slade, 1961; Bissell, 1962, 1964), and conodont fossils from the nearby Pequop Mountains are Leonardian to late Wolfcampian age (Behnken, 1975); the Ferguson Mountain Formation is considered Wolfcampian from fusulinids at the Leppy Hills (Hodgkinson, 1961; Bissell, 1962); the Strathearn is not well dated with fusulinid fossils in the Silver Island Mountains and Leppy Hills, but is considered lower Wolfcampian to Upper Pennsylvanian (Steele, 1959; Schaeffer and Anderson, 1960; Hodgkinson, 1961; Bis- sell, 1964; Schneyer, 1990); Schaeffer and Anderson (1960) also reported , gastropod and bryozoan fos- sils from the combined unit; Bissell (1964) used Arcturas Group nomenclature for the Loray, Pequop and Ferguson Mountain Formations; the Strathearn unconformably overlies the Ely Limestone with a local angular unconformity (Schaeffer and Anderson, 1960; Schneyer, 1990; Miller and others, in progress); north of map area in the Newfound- land Mountains the Pequop and Strathearn unconformably overlie the Pilot Shale (Allmendinger and Jordan, 1984; Miller and others, in press); unit P*ps thickness is as much as 2550 feet (>780 m) but incomplete in the Silver Island Mountains and Leppy Hills (Schaeffer and Anderson, 1960; Schneyer, 1990), a similar incomplete thickness exists at Floating Island (this study).

Notes: Map ID corresponds to plate 1. Sites in gray highlight are not in current map area. See Oviatt and others, 2020 for details on sediment pit, core and other data. Landfill pit walls (for sections C29-5 and C5-5) were at the Energy Solutions landfill at Clive, Utah; CH2 was a pit-wall exposure in an excavation at Clean Harbors Grassy Mountain landfill. Shallow pits were dug using a shovel. Cores BC1, BC2, BC3 were collected by Push Drilling, LLC. Remaining sediment cores were collected by hand-driving a PVC pipe into the mud. Ground elevation determined from 7.5' topographic maps. The Wendover and Knolls cores were taken by A.J. Eardley (Univ. of Utah), core locations are approximate; detailed logs of the cores have never been published. These cores are archived at the Utah Core Research Center (Salt Lake City, Utah). No reevaluation of the Wendover and Knolls cores was conducted for this study. "Green, unpublished": Sue Green was a graduate student of D.R. Currey (University of Utah) in the 1980s; this "lozenge" section was part of her Master's thesis, which was not completed. It is anticipated that the 2017-2019 cores will be archived at the Utah Core Research Center.

Correlation age is based on geochemical correlation of glass composition to the database of analyses/stratigraphic data/age dates for late Cenozoic vitric tephra layers in the Western U.S. assembled at the University of Utah, Dept. of Geology and Geophysics. Geochemical analysis was by electron microprobe and x-ray fluroescence. Refer toWilliams (1994) for methods and sources of radiometric ages on various ash beds. Updated ages are used for the Lava Creek B and Glass Mtn D tephras. * Estimated ages in Wendover core (Williams, 1994, figure 6). nd is no data.
