USGS GARFIELD UTAH GEOLOGIC MAP Salt Lake & Tooele Counties LARGE COLORFUL 1971

Description

ONLY ONE!!!
This is USGS map GQ-922,
Geologic Map of the Garfield Quadrangle, Utah
. Published in 1971, this is a great map depicting the complex geology of this interesting area. The map is 29 inches wide, and even taller than that.
This map shows part of the Great Salt Lake in the upper left corner. The massive smelter facility that processes Bingham Canyon ore is on the map near the town of Garfield. Part of the huge tailings facility of the smelter is shown.
The mountains to the south are part of the Oquirrh range and consist of Mississippian through Permian sedimentary rocks, as well as younger sedimentary rocks and andesites. Younger formations include various alluvial packages. A
few nice cross sections show how the rocks are folded. Complicating thrust faults are part of the story as well. The street grid of Garfield is recognizable - If you live there you will be able to make out the roads as they were in 1971.
This is a cool, colorful geologic map that should be of interest to local residents and geologists. It's a great find.
I have other Arizona, Utah, and Colorado uranium maps and reports listed, so check my other items.
I will continue to add new items to my store, so check back periodically.
