The ultimate objective of the Montana Bureau of Mines and Geology is the dissemination of information concerning the geology, mineral resources, and ground-water occurrences of the state. This objective is partly accomplished by the distribution of the publications listed in this brochure. Additional information can be obtained by mail or by calling in person at the Bureau offices. Questions on all phases of the mineral industry are welcomed and answered promptly by qualified personnel. Rock and mineral specimens will be identified as to the mineral content, and assaying will be recommended when justified. A quarter of a pound of material is sufficient for a rock or mineral identification, If specimens are to be returned, sufficient postage should be included. All specimens examined are tested by fluo­ rescence and for radioactivity. This service is free of charge to the citizens of Montana. Quantitative analyses or assays are not made. The Bureau acts as an agent for the U.S. Geological Survey in the sale of topo­ graphic and geologic maps of Montana localities. A list of maps available at the Bureau may be obtained free of charge upon request. GENERAL INFORMATION As of January 1, 1959, all publications of the Bureau are issued in only three series, and the information contained therein will be classified as follows: Memoirs.- Highly technical information on basic science. Bulletins.-Less technical information on applied science, Special Publications.-Miscellaneous information on subjects related to the mineral industries and not necessarily of a technical nature. Those series that have been discontinued or included under another series are indicated under the series title in the body of this brochure. The discontinuation of these series does not mean that information generally compiled for pUblication under such will be eliminated, but only that this same information will be pub­ lished under the series "Bulletins" or "Special Publications," ORDERS FOR PUBLICATIONS Memoirs, Bulletins, Special Publications, and those publications under the discontinued series that are still available can be obtained by writing or calling personally at the office of the Montana Bureau of Mines and Geology, Room 203-B, Main Hall, Montana College of Mineral Science and Technology, Butte, Montana, 59701.

  • The Structural Geology and Tectonic History of the Northern Flint Creek
    The structural geology and tectonic history of the northern Flint Creek Range, western Montana by Jeffrey Frank Baken A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Earth Science Montana State University © Copyright by Jeffrey Frank Baken (1984) Abstract: The Flint Creek Range of west-central Montana represents an important and rather atypical segment of the Cordilleran fold and thrust belt. The formation of opposing structural asymmetry in the range has not been satisfactorily explained. Field mapping and structural lab work have been incorporated with modern concepts of fold-and-thrust belt geometry to resolve this question. The range has been subdivided into three structural provinces based upon distinct structural geometries. The western province, which represents the eastern edge of the Sapphire allochthon, is characterized by "typical" eastward assymmetry; however, the eastern province displays "atypical" westward asymmetry. The northern province is represented by a change in structural trend (convex to the northeast) and opposing fold-plunges where the Flint Creek and Garnet Ranges meet across the Montana lineament. The kinematic sequence of deformation in the Flint Creek Range incorporates regional tectonic events and features. The Deer Lodge block, which occupies the Belt embayment, moved eastward along a major decollament as the result of combined east-west compression and intrusive wedging by the Idaho batholith (100 m.y. ago). Following development of this allochthon, the Boulder batholith initiated emplacement along the decollement with the Racetrack Creek pluton and the Elkhorn Mountains Volcanics (78-72 m.y. ago) as satellite effects. The "atypical" geometry of the eastern province was produced by the formation of a ramp interface beneath the Flint Creek Range.

  • Extension of the Anaconda Metamorphic Core Complex: 40Ar
    Extension of the Anaconda metamorphic core complex: 40Ar/39Ar thermochronology and implications for Eocene tectonics of the northern Rocky Mountains and the Boulder batholith David A. Foster1, Warren C. Grice Jr.1,*, and Thomas J. Kalakay2 1DEPARTMENT OF GEOLOGICAL SCIENCES, P.O. BOX 112120, UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA, GAINESVILLE, FLORIDA 32611, USA 2DEPARTMENT OF GEOLOGY, ROCKY MOUNTAIN COLLEGE, 1511 POLY DRIVE, BILLINGS, MONTANA 59102, USA ABSTRACT Thermochronologic data defi ne the extension and exhumation history of the Anaconda metamorphic core complex and have implications for the Eocene tectonic setting of the northern Rocky Mountains. The 40Ar/ 39Ar data indicate that relatively rapid extension on the Anaconda detachment started at ca. 53 Ma and continued through ca. 39 Ma. Apatite fi ssion-track data reveal that faulting and exhumation of the foot- wall continued until ca. 27 Ma. The average displacement rate on the Anaconda detachment was on the order of 1 mm/yr between ca. 50 and 39 Ma based on the lateral gradient in mica 40Ar/39Ar ages in the direction of fault slip. The total displacement along the Anaconda detachment in Eocene and Oligocene times is estimated to be ≥25–28 km based on reconstruction of the Cretaceous Storm Lake Stock with its detached roof, which is now exposed in the Deer Lodge Valley. Extension exhumed crust from ~12 km depth and exposed middle-greenschist-facies mylonites in the easternmost part of the Anaconda complex footwall. On a regional scale, the Anaconda detachment dips east beneath the Cretaceous Boulder batholith, indicating that the batholith and the Butte mineralization were transported east in the hanging wall.

  • Preliminary Geologic Map of the Eastern Flint Creek Basin West-Central Montana
    Preliminary Geologic Map of the Eastern Flint Creek Basin West-central Montana By Ryan Portner and Marc Hendrix University of Montana, Missoula Montana 2005 Montana Bureau of Mines and Geology Open File Report MBMG 521 This report has been reviewed for conformity with Montana Bureau of Mines and Geology’s technical and editorial standards. Partial support has been provided by the EDMAP component of the Nation Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program of the U.S. Geological Survey under Contract Number 03HQA90061. Geologic Summary Introduction The Cenozoic Flint Creek basin is a northeast-southwest-oriented basin centered along the Flint Creek Valley south of Drummond, Montana (figure 1). The eastern half was first mapped in detail by Gwinn (1961) and the western half by Maxwell (1965). Both maps emphasized the adjacent bedrock geology of the basin. Rasmussen (1969) remapped the eastern portion of the basin north of the Clark Fork River and primarily focused on Cenozoic stratigraphy. Rasmussen (1973) identified the mid-Miocene unconformity south of the Clark Fork River and established a discrepancy with the earlier mapping of Gwinn (1961). The purpose of the present report was to compile the bedrock geology of Gwinn (1961) with geologic mapping done by Rasmussen (1969) and to remap the Cenozoic units south of the Clark Fork River using a detailed lithostratigraphic approach supported by paleontologic data of Rasmussen (1973) and Christensen (oral comm., 2004). The map area chosen for this study is the eastern half of the basin where units are best exposed (figure 2). Structural Geology Folded and faulted rocks of Paleozoic through Cretaceous age constitute the bedrock geology of the eastern Flint Creek basin.
