Journal ArticleDOI
Nomenclature and Correlation of Some Upper Precambrian and Basal Cambrian Sequences in Western Utah and Southeastern Idaho
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the Mutual Formation, a group of allochthonous rocks that were thrust eastward during the Sevier orogeny, and show that these rocks are allochthyonous and appear to have been thrust in the Bannock and Malad Ranges.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rate of crustal extension across the Rio Grande Rift near Albuquerque, New Mexico
TL;DR: There has probably been about 8 km of crustal extension in a northwest-southeast direction across the Rio Grande rift near Albuquerque, New Mexico, since approximately 26 m.y. ago, giving an annual rate of about 0.3 mm/yr.
Journal ArticleDOI
Strata-Bound Copper Deposits in Triassic Sandstone of Sierra Nacimiento, New Mexico
TL;DR: Copper sulfides and copper-iron sulfides have been associated with carbonaceous fossil plant material, mainly logs, in the Agua Zarca Sandstone Member of the Chinle Formation of Triassic age.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tectonic Framework of Cordilleran Foldbelt in Southwestern New Mexico
L. L. Corbitt,Lee A. Woodward +1 more
TL;DR: The Cordilleran foldbelt is characterized mainly by flat thrust faults and subordinate, closely compressed, overturned folds of Laramide age as discussed by the authors, and the contact of the foldbelt with the platform on the north is marked by thrust faults exposed in the Florida, Victorio and central Peloncillo Mountains.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nacimiento Fault and Related Structures, Northern New Mexico
TL;DR: A model based on primary vertical uplift integrates the different stress fields that caused the complex sequence of monoclinal folding, normal faulting, and reverse faulting with concomitant tensional features in the hanging wall block.
