A geologic study, both field and laboratory, was made of the 12,000 foot thickness of steeply dipping Freda for­ mation exposed along this river. The field study Includes mapping of sedimentary structures In an effort to determine the dominant current directions during deposition of the formation. Pebble and quartz grain orientation as well as heavy mineral and rock composition analyses were made In the laboratory to supplement the field work.

  • Paleozoic Stratigraphic Nomenclature for Wisconsin (Wisconsin

It is now known Geological and Natural History Survey to re-examine the that the Oronto is unconformable with older rocks in some Paleozoic rocks of Wisconsin and is a response to the needs areas as for example at Fond du Lac, Minnesota, where of geologists, hydrologists and the mineral industry.

  • The End of Midcontinent Rift Magmatism and the Paleogeography of Laurentia
    THEMED ISSUE: Tectonics at the Micro- to Macroscale: Contributions in Honor of the University of Michigan Structure-Tectonics Research Group of Ben van der Pluijm and Rob Van der Voo The end of Midcontinent Rift magmatism and the paleogeography of Laurentia Luke M. Fairchild1, Nicholas L. Swanson-Hysell1, Jahandar Ramezani2, Courtney J. Sprain1, and Samuel A. Bowring2 1DEPARTMENT OF EARTH AND PLANETARY SCIENCE, UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, BERKELEY, CALIFORNIA 94720, USA 2DEPARTMENT OF EARTH, ATMOSPHERIC AND PLANETARY SCIENCES, MASSACHUSETTS INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY, CAMBRIDGE, MASSACHUSETTS 02139, USA ABSTRACT Paleomagnetism of the North American Midcontinent Rift provides a robust paleogeographic record of Laurentia (cratonic North America) from ca. 1110 to 1070 Ma, revealing rapid equatorward motion of the continent throughout rift magmatism. Existing age and paleomagnetic constraints on the youngest rift volcanic and sedimentary rocks have been interpreted to record a slowdown of this motion as rifting waned. We present new paleomagnetic and geochronologic data from the ca. 1090–1083 Ma “late-stage” rift volcanic rocks exposed as the Lake Shore Traps (Michigan), the Schroeder-Lutsen basalts (Minnesota), and the Michipicoten Island Formation (Ontario). The paleomagnetic data allow for the development of paleomagnetic poles for the Schroeder-Lutsen basalts (187.8°E, 27.1°N; A95 = 3.0°, N = 50) and the Michipicoten Island Formation (174.7°E, 17.0°N; A95 = 4.4°, N = 23). Temporal constraints on late-stage paleomagnetic poles are provided by high-precision, 206Pb-238U zircon dates from a Lake Shore Traps andesite (1085.57 ± 0.25 Ma; 2σ internal errors), a Michipicoten Island Formation tuff (1084.35 ± 0.20 Ma) and rhyolite (1083.52 ± 0.23 Ma), and a Silver Bay aplitic dike from the Beaver Bay Complex (1091.61 ± 0.14 Ma), which is overlain by the Schroeder-Lutsen basalt flows.

  • Geology of Michigan and the Great Lakes
    35133_Geo_Michigan_Cover.qxd 11/13/07 10:26 AM Page 1 “The Geology of Michigan and the Great Lakes” is written to augment any introductory earth science, environmental geology, geologic, or geographic course offering, and is designed to introduce students in Michigan and the Great Lakes to important regional geologic concepts and events. Although Michigan’s geologic past spans the Precambrian through the Holocene, much of the rock record, Pennsylvanian through Pliocene, is miss- ing. Glacial events during the Pleistocene removed these rocks. However, these same glacial events left behind a rich legacy of surficial deposits, various landscape features, lakes, and rivers. Michigan is one of the most scenic states in the nation, providing numerous recre- ational opportunities to inhabitants and visitors alike. Geology of the region has also played an important, and often controlling, role in the pattern of settlement and ongoing economic development of the state. Vital resources such as iron ore, copper, gypsum, salt, oil, and gas have greatly contributed to Michigan’s growth and industrial might. Ample supplies of high-quality water support a vibrant population and strong industrial base throughout the Great Lakes region. These water supplies are now becoming increasingly important in light of modern economic growth and population demands. This text introduces the student to the geology of Michigan and the Great Lakes region. It begins with the Precambrian basement terrains as they relate to plate tectonic events. It describes Paleozoic clastic and carbonate rocks, restricted basin salts, and Niagaran pinnacle reefs. Quaternary glacial events and the development of today’s modern landscapes are also discussed.
