  • Geologic Map of Ruby Dam Area Southwestern Montana
    Geologic Map of Ruby Dam Area Southwestern Montana Compiled and Mapped by Zachary C. St. Jean and Deirdre R. Teeter Montana Bureau of Mines and Geology Open File Report MBMG 488 2004 This report has had preliminary reviews for conformity with Montana Bureau of Mines and Geology’s technical editorial standards. Partial support has been provided by the EDMAP component of the National Cooperative Geological Mapping Program of the U.S. Geological Survey under Contract Number 01HQAG0157. Introduction This project was funded by the EDMAP program of the U. S. Geological Survey. Field studies, including geologic mapping and a gravity and magnetic survey, were conducted during the 2001 field season. These studies were undertaken to gain a better understanding of the geologic structure of the Ruby basin in the area of Ruby Dam in southwest Montana (Figures 1 and 2). Ruby Dam, which impounds Ruby Reservoir, lies within a seismically active region known as the Intermountain Seismic Belt. Delineation and detailed mapping of the Tertiary and Quaternary sediments has helped to understand better the occurrence of Quaternary faulting in the basin. No new faults of Quaternary age were recognized within the field area. However, a fault that offsets Quaternary deposits was newly mapped by the authors in a gravel pit two miles north of the north map boundary. This fault may change previously calculated ground acceleration values at the dam site, and may indicate a greater susceptibility of the dam to seismic activity than previously thought. The geologic map in this report combines previous work that focused on the bedrock of the area with new mapping of the Tertiary and Quaternary deposits by the present authors.

    Montana Children’s Center TBD MT HWY 41 S. Twin Bridges, Montana www.bhhsmt.com | 406.842.5650 or 406.684.5686 - 1 - INTRODUCTION The Montana Children's Center served the needs of support and care of dependent or neglected children who required the separation from their families or foster families or for whom foster care could not be obtained. The Children’s Center is rich with history dating back to the late 1880's until its closure in 1975. The 27.5 acre offering includes 22 contiguous parcels and lots which are situated along the banks of the Beaverhead River across from the town of Twin Bridges. The Montana Children’s Center is the essential property for the expansion of the town and the growth of the local economy. The offering is central to endless recreational opportunities within the Ruby Valley. www.bhhsmt.com | 406.842.5650 or 406.684.5686 - 2 - www.bhhsmt.com | 406.842.5650 or 406.684.5686 - 3 - HISTORY The Montana Children's Center was very important facility for Madison County, and the children that benefited from its operation. On September 29, 1894 the construction of the first structure was completed; the historic Victorian (still standing today). 5 children were admitted that same month, and were referred to as inmates. The property continued to be improved and expanded as the population of inmates grew reaching up to as many as nearly 700 children by 1907. The orphanage continued to house a large populace of child inmates until the foster care programs became the popular alternative to the orphanage system and the facility closed forever in 1975.

  • Advances in the Geology of the Tobacco Root Mountains, Montana, and Their Implications for the History of the Northern Wyoming Province
    Geological Society of America Special Paper 377 2004 Advances in the geology of the Tobacco Root Mountains, Montana, and their implications for the history of the northern Wyoming province Tekla A. Harms Department of Geology, Amherst College, Amherst, Massachusetts 01002, USA John B. Brady H. Robert Burger Department of Geology, Smith College, Northampton, Massachusetts 01063, USA John T. Cheney Department of Geology, Amherst College, Amherst, Massachusetts 01002, USA ABSTRACT Integrated studies by Keck Geology Consortium participants have generated many new insights into the Precambrian geology of the Tobacco Root Mountains. We have clarifi ed the tectonic setting and origin of two suites of metamorphic rocks: (1) a quartzofeldspathic gneiss complex with associated metasupracrustal rocks (the combined Indian Creek and Pony–Middle Mountain Metamorphic Suites) that origi- nated in a continental arc setting between 3.35 and 3.2 Ga with subsequent sedimen- tation and (2) mafi c metavolcanic rocks with intercalated metasedimentary rocks (the Spuhler Peak Metamorphic Suite) from a suprasubduction zone ophiolite or backarc basin possibly of Proterozoic age. A poorly preserved metamorphic event at 2.45 Ga affected the former but not the latter, as did the intrusion of rift-related mafi c dikes and sills at 2.06 Ga. Both suites were amalgamated, metamorphosed to at least upper amphibolite facies, subjected to simple shear strain and folded into map- and out- crop-scale sheath folds, and tectonically unroofed during the period 1.78 to 1.71 Ga. We name this event the Big Sky orogeny. The Proterozoic geology of the Tobacco Root Mountains can be integrated with coeval features of the geology of the northern Wyoming province to outline a north- east-trending, southeast-vergent belt as the Big Sky orogen.

Western Michigan University, 1984 The Snowcrest Range was uplifted in Late Cretaceous and Early •Tertiary time as a consequence of thrusting in Precambrian basement and Phanerozoic cover rocks. The Snowcrest-Greenhorn thrust system is associated with large- scale overturned, eastward verging folds. Mean orientation of the thrust system is N.40°E., 35°N.W.. The trend of the thrust system and associated transverse faults appear to be controlled by earlier structures.
