    Reconnaissance Geologic Map of the Halifax, Scottsburg, Nathalie, and Conner Lake 7.5-Minute Quadrangles, Halifax and Charlotte Counties, Virginia

    U.S. DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR U. S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY Reconnaissance geologic map of the Halifax, Scottsburg, Nathalie, and Conner Lake 7.5-minute quadrangles, Halifax and Charlotte Counties, Virginia By Arthur E. Nelson and Frances J. Nelson Open File Report 97-707 This report is preliminary and has not been reviewed for conformity with U.S. Geological Survey editorial standards nor with the North American Stratigraphic Code. Any use of trade, product, or firm names is for descriptive purposes only and does not imply endorsement by the U.S. Government. INTRODUCTION A l:48,000-scale geologic map was made of the Halifax, Scottsburg, Nathalie, and Conner Lake 7.5-minute quadrangles, which are located in the Piedmont physiographic province, south- central Virginia. The map area lies mainly in Halifax County, and it includes a small area of Charlotte County on the north side of the Roanoke River. Topographic relief ranges from about 315 feet above sea level in the Roanoke River valley to 657 feet near Acorn, which is about 3 miles northwest of Nathalie. Principal drainages are the easterly flowing Roanoke River, the southeasterly flowing Banister River, and their tributaries. The geologic mapping was a part of a larger project to map the geology of the South Boston 30 X 60-minute quadrangle at 1:100,000 scale. Generally the report area is underlain by highly weathered rocks with deep weathering profiles and sparse fresh rock exposure. Previously workers have reported on various aspects of the geology within and near the study area (Laney, 1917; King, 1955; Espenshade and Potter, 1960; Tobisch and Glover, 1969, 1971; Glover and Sinha, 1973; Butler, 1980; Henika, 1977, 1980; Marr, 1980; Kreisa, 1980; Gates and others, 1986; Baird, 1991; Horton and Zullo, 1991; Horton and others, 1993; Virginia Division of Mineral Resources, 1993; Hibbard, 1993; Nelson, 1993; Wortman and others, 1995; Peper and others, 1996; Bradley, 1996; Ozdogan and others, 1997; Baird and Glover, 1997).
