    GEOLOGIC MAP OF THE CENOZOIC DEPOSITS OF THE UPPER JEFFERSON VALLEY MBMG Open File Report 505 2004 Compiled and mapped by Susan M. Vuke, Walter W. Coppinger, and Bruce E. Cox 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 STATEMAP component of the National Cooperative Geology Mapping Program of the U.S. Geological Survey under contract Number 03HQAG0090. CENOZOIC DEPOSITS OF THE UPPER JEFFERSON VALLEY Cenozoic deposits are the focus of the Geologic Map of the upper Jefferson Valley. The map is largely a compilation of previous mapping with additional interpretations based on aerial photos and limited additional field work. Older rocks are included to show their relations to the Cenozoic deposits, but they are generalized on the map. Lithologic descriptions of the Cenozoic deposits are given in the map explanation (p. 17). References used for the map compilation are shown on p. 15. The northern and southern parts of the map are discussed separately. NORTHERN PART OF MAP AREA Quaternary deposits A variety of Quaternary deposits blanket much of the slope area of the Whitetail and Pipestone Creek valleys between the flanks of the Highland Mountains and Bull Mountain (Fig. 1). East and southeast of these Quaternary slope deposits are more isolated areas of partly cemented Pleistocene gravels on pediments. One of these gravel deposits near Red Hill (Fig. 1) yielded a late Pleistocene vertebrate assemblage including cheetah, horse, camel, and large mountain sheep. Radiocarbon dates from the lowest part of the sequence range between 10,000 and 9,000 14C yr.

  • Stratigraphy and Structure of the Rock Creek Area, Beaverhead County, Montana by James Franklin Peters
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF JAMES FRANKLIN PETERS for the Master of Science (Name) (Degree) in Geology presented on (Major) (Date) Title: STRATIGRAPHY AND STRUCTURE OF THE ROCK CREEK AREA, BEAVERHEAD COUNTY, MONTANA Abstract approved:Redacted for Privacy Dr. David A. Bostwick The Rock Creek area consists of 53 square miles located in the eastern foothills of the Pioneer Mountains, Beaverhead County, Montana. Approximately 8, 500 feet of late Paleozoic and early Mesozoic contact-metamorphosed sedimentary rocks and late Meso- zoic sedimentary rocks are exposed in the area of study. Most of the late Paleozoic and Mesozoic rocks were deposited along the eastern edge of the Cordilleran miogeosyncline.The old- est exposed rocks in the map area belong to the Amsden Formation of Late Mississippian to Early Pennsylvanian age.Other late Paleo- zoic rock units include the Quadrant Formation of Pennsylvanian age and the Phosphoria Formation of Permian age.Mesozoic forma- tions include the Dinwoody Formation of Triassic age and the Kootenai Formation and Colorado Group of Cretaceous age. The Tertiary is represented bybasin depositsand basaltic andesite extrusives.Unconsolidated Quaternary glacialand fluvial deposits complete the stratigraphicsuccession. Granodiorite intrusive rocksoccupy the southwestern corner of the area mapped andcompose part of the eastern margin of the Mount Torrey Batholith, whichis probably genetically relatedto the Boulder Batholith.Along the margin of the intrusive,contact meta- morphism has destroyed the originalsedimentary characteristics of the late Paleozoic and earlyMesozoic Formations. During the Late Cretaceous Laramideorogeny the sedimentary rocks were tilted and faulted. Thestructures in the area are related to the main episode of Laramidedeformation, emplacement of the Mount Torrey Batholith, and laterphases of structural adjustment.

  • Geologic Map of the Divide Area Southwestern Montana
    GEOLOGIC MAP OF THE DIVIDE AREA SOUTHWESTERN MONTANA Mapped and compiled by Susan M. Vuke Montana Bureau of Mines and Geology Open File Report MBMG 502 2004 Paleontology Text Revised— 10/04 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 STATEMAP component of the National Cooperative Geology Mapping Program of the U.S. Geological Survey under contract number 03HQAG0090. CENOZOIC GEOLOGY OF THE DIVIDE AREA Introduction The narrow Cenozoic valley shown on the geologic map and in Figures 1, 2, and 3 is referred to as Divide Valley in this report. The Cenozoic deposits of the Divide Valley are the focus of this map. Older units are included to show the relations of Cenozoic structures to pre-existing structures, and were mapped only in some areas adjacent to Cenozoic deposits. In all other areas, they were compiled and generalized from previous mapping with some reinterpretation in places. Geologic maps by O’Neill and others (1996), Smedes (1967), and Zen (1988) provide detail not shown on this map for pre-Cenozoic rocks. A central horst divides the valley into three parts: the northern, central (horst), and southern segments of this report. Segmentation of the valley is reflected in offset of Cenozoic deposits, and in the present-day position of the Big Hole River. Late Neogene During the late Neogene, an ancestral river flowed through the entire Divide Valley. Its course and flow direction changed several times. The central segment horst exposes deposits of this ancestral river (QTal) that likely underlie the entire Divide Valley.
