Geologists observed details about the variations in texture, lithology, and orientation of the map units, collected rock samples, noted outcrop descriptions, and conducted structural measurements. Field observations were integrated with existing literature and geophysical survey data. Process_Date: 1996 Process_Step: Process_Description: Laboratory data compilation - Selected samples were submitted for geochronologic and geochemical analysis. The results were used to further interpret the stratigraphic and structural history of the map area. Source_Used_Citation_Abbreviation: Joy, B.R. and others, 1996 Source_Used_Citation_Abbreviation: Newberry, R.J., 1996 Process_Date: 1996 Process_Step: Process_Description: Geologic map compilation - The geologic data were digitized from a mylar compilation of geologic field maps produced on USGS topo bases of the area. Locations were determined visually using topographic maps at scales of 1:63,360 and 1:25,000. Geologic contacts, samples, and station locations were visually hand-plotted onto stable mylar bases from the field maps. Data were digitally compiled and plotted using ArcInfo software. The coordinates of sample and station locations were determined using a digitizing tablet output. The map and report received technical review and editing by several scientists familiar with the subject matter. The authors incorporated the reviewers' suggestions into the final draft when deemed appropriate.
