  • Central Nevada
    University of Nevada Reno LATE CENOZOIC GEOLOGY AND TECTONICS OF STEWART AND MONTE CRISTO VALLEYS, WEST - CENTRAL NEVADA A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science .I by Mark Philip Molinari fit ; December, 1984 ii ABSTRACT Discontinuous right-normal-slip faults comprise the N30 0W trending, 45 kilometer long Stewart - Monte Cristo fault zone (SMCFZ). Initiation of the SMCFZ postdates the 15.5 to 11.0 m.y. Esmeralda Formation. Right-normal-slip >1 meter occurred on the southern segment of the SMCFZ during the 1932 Cedar Mountain earthquake (Ms= 7.2-7.3). Geomor- phic evidence supports at least three and possibly five or six surface faulting events on the southern segment during the latest Pleistocene and Holocene. Gentle folds in the Esmeralda Formation east of and sub-parallel to the SMCFZ are coeval with and genetically related to faulting. Structural development of the SMCFZ is similar to other right-lateral wrench faults and is consistent with labora- tory wrench fault models. The SMCFZ is the youngest and southeasternmost fault of a system of major late Cenozoic, left-stepping, en echelon right-slip faults in the central Walker Lane. - .~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ iii TABLE OF CONTENTS page ABSTRACT ..................

  • Hydrographic Basins Information
    A p p e n d i x A - B a s i n 54 Crescent Valley Page 1 of 6 Basin 54 - Crescent Valley Crescent Valley is a semi-closed basin that is bounded on the west by the Shoshone Range, on the east by the Cortez Mountains, on the south by the Toiyabe Range, and on the north by the Dry Hills. The drainage basin is about 45 miles long, 20 miles wide, and includes an area of approximately 750 square miles. Water enters the basin primarily as precipitation and is discharged primarily through evaporation and transpiration. Relatively small quantities of water enter the basin as surface flow and ground water underflow from the adjacent Carico Lake Valley at Rocky Pass, where Cooks Creek enters the southwestern end of Crescent Valley. Ground water generally flows northeasterly along the axis of the basin. The natural flow of ground water from Crescent Valley discharges into the Humboldt River between Rose Ranch and Beowawe. It is estimated that the average annual net discharge rate is approximately 700 to 750 acre-feet annually. Many of the streams which drain snowmelt of rainfall from the mountains surrounding Crescent Valley do not reach the dry lake beds on the Valley floor: instead, they branch into smaller channels that eventually run dry. Runoff from Crescent Valley does not reach Humboldt River with the exception of Coyote Creek, an intermittent stream that flows north from the Malpais to the Humboldt River and several small ephemeral streams that flow north from the Dry Hills. Surface flow in the Carico Lake Valley coalesces into Cooks Creek, which enters Crescent Valley through Rocky Pass.

  • F I N a L Mineral Assessment Report
    BLM F I N A L MINERAL ASSESSMENT REPORT Battle Mountain District Office - Nevada J A N U A R Y 2 0 1 2 This page intentionally left blank Bureau of Land Management Mineral Assessment Report SUMMARY The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Battle Mountain District Office (BMDO) is in the process of revising the district’s Resource Management Plan (RMP). As part of the RMP revision process, the BLM is required to prepare a Mineral Assessment Report providing information regarding mineral occurrences and potential within the BMDO Planning Area (planning area). This report provides an intermediate level of detail for mineral assessment as prescribed in BLM Manual 3060 (BLM 1994). Information presented in this report will be summarized and incorporated into an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the proposed RMP and into the final RMP. The geologic history of central and southern Nevada and the planning area is very complex and includes two major cycles of sedimentation (western and eastern facies sources), episodic thrust faulting, mountain building, and associated intrusive and igneous activity. More recent geologic history includes a period of crustal extension that was accompanied by bimodal (rhyolite-basalt) volcanism, large volume caldera volcanism, and basin and range block-faulting resulting in high-levels of shallow crustal heat flow. The regional and local geologic setting has been instrumental in the location of and potential for numerous economic metallic mineral deposits in the planning area, as well as development of economic geothermal resources. MINING AND MINERAL ACTIVITY IN NEVADA Mineral exploration, particularly for gold, is an ongoing enterprise in Nevada by both operators of existing mines and by other exploration companies.

Forest Supervisor’s Message MESSAGE he Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest had another successful year in T 2019. As I reflect on the past year’s accomplishments, I cannot help but think of the USDA Forest Service’s mission statement: “To sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of the Nation’s forests and grass- lands to meet the needs of present and future generations.” Every initiative we undertake tiers to this mission and it is the backbone of our Forest’s strategic plan and our daily work. You will see that in the last year we accomplished a number of key initia- tives and projects with the States of Nevada and California, Tribes, local communities, and collaborative groups. Especially significant in 2019, a Shared Stewardship Agreement was signed by the Nevada Governor, Intermountain and Pacific Southwest Regional Foresters, Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Nevada State Director, and Pacific Southwest Region- al U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) Director. Nevada becomes the ninth state in the nation to sign such an agreement, 2019 LEADERSHIP HIGHLIGHTS but it is the only state so far to also include the BLM and USFWS in the agreement.
