  • The Formation of Thundereggs
    The Formation of Thundereggs (Lithophysae) The Mechanisms of Rhyolitic Lava Fractionation and Crystallization of Spherulites and the Formation of Star-Shaped Gas Cavities in Lithophysae. Preface Thundereggs were probably first extensively excavated by agate gem enthusiasts and collectors at the original Priday Ranch Deposits, 17 miles north of Madras, Oregon. Indeed, the name “thunderegg” came from the local Warm Springs Indian Tribe who, living on the eastern flanks of the explosive-prone volcanoes such as Mt. Hood, Mt. Jefferson, and Mt. St. Helens, believed that thundereggs were overcast missiles from the thunder-gods in their volcanic quarrels. I can sympathize well with this myth, for I was in Portland, Oregon that Sunday morning of May 18, 1980 when Mt. St. Helens blew with the force of a five-megaton H-Bomb. Fortunately, the ash and tephra drifted eastward on the common west-to-east trade winds, sparing Portland a giant mess of ash to contend with. Since they were first collected, then later excavated at the Priday Ranch (now Richardson’s Rock Ranch, Madras, Oregon), the cutting and lapidary treatment of them has sparked curiosity as to their genesis. While the structure of the whole “eggs” are remarkably similar, their interior agate, opal and quartz cores– along with inclusions of rhyolite shards, moss, and plumes– provide an endless variety, no two being exactly the same. At first, the Indians’ notion of “thunder-god missiles” captured the imagination of early Twentieth Century collectors and a few geologists. At the outcrop of this “original dig,” and at subsequently discovered deposits, the eggs are found in an ashy-like material as solid egg-shaped entities.

Ross Clapp Spring is a permanent source of water set in a small oasis of fan palms and mesquite located in some low hills on the northeast flank of the Palo Verde Mountains. It lies approximately nine miles from the community of Palo Verde, California, and perhaps 10 miles west of the Colorado River, the eastern edge of the Colorado Desert. Overlooked on the south by some caves once used by Indians and set at the center of a web of converging animal trails, it is a captivating place. Reflecting the amount of rainfall during the preceding several years, the main pool at the spring varies from a few inches to five feet in diameter and from three to nine inches deep. It is located in the heart of the oasis, at the base of a palm. Except during and a few years after a serious drought, there may be several additional seeps and smaller pools of water in shallow holes dug by wild burros.

    Field trip guide to the middle Eocene Wildcat Mountain Caldera, Ochoco National Forest, Crook County, Oregon by Jason D. McClaughry1, Caroline L. Gordon2, and Mark L.

Geologic factors that control landslide deposits and mineralization in the east part of the Lower Crooked Basin are discussed. This field trip is 152.7 km (94.9 mi). INTRODUCTION 124o 121o 118o KBML The Wildcat Mountain caldera, in the eastern part of the Lower Portland Crooked Basin, is a volcanic vent complex that collapsed and DCP filled with more than 90 km3 (21.5 mi3) of rhyolitic ash-flow BM 45o WV tuff during the middle Eocene.

  • 3. Subbasin Assessment
    3. Subbasin Assessment 3.1 Subbasin Overview 3.1.1 General Description Location The John Day Subbasin is located in northeastern Oregon in the southern section of the Columbia Plateau Ecological Province. Its over five million-acre (approximately 5,067,500 acres, or 8000 mi2) drainage area is bound by the Columbia River (Lake Umatilla) to the north, the Blue Mountains to the east, the Aldrich Mountains and Strawberry Range to the south, and the Ochoco Mountains to the west. The John Day Subbasin incorporates portions of Grant, Wheeler, Gilliam, Sherman, Wasco, Jefferson, Umatilla, Morrow, Crook, Harney, Baker and Union counties. The towns within the subbasin with the largest populations include John Day, Prairie City and Condon. Populations of these and the other incorporated towns in the subbasin are listed in Table 2. See Figure 1 for a general overview map of the subbasin. The John Day River flows generally northwest for 284 miles from its origin in the Blue Mountains and joins the Columbia River at river mile (RM) 217 upstream from the town of Rufus. The mainstem portion of the John Day River begins in the Strawberry Mountains in the Malheur National Forest and flows west through the town of John Day (RM 247) and then north from Dayville (RM 212). Major rivers flowing into the mainstem are the North Fork, Middle Fork, and South Fork John Day rivers. The largest tributary to the John Day River is the North Fork, which originates in the Wallowa- Whitman National Forest in the Blue Mountains at elevations near 8000 feet.
