USGS GEOLOGIC HISTORY of the SLICK ROCK URANIUM DISTRICT, COLORADO Scarce 1976

Description

URANIUM!! HOT ITEM - BUT NOT LITERALLY!!
This is USGS Professional Paper 576-E,
Geologic History of the Slick Rock District and
Vicinity
, San Miguel and Dolores Counties, Colorado
. Published in 1976, this 19-page takes a deep look at the geologic history of this important uranium district. It is part of a series of reports on this area. The story goes back to Precambrian times and discusses the rocks and history in every major period from there to the present. The story is divided into sections to make it clearer. Some helpful maps make it more understandable.
It is cool to get the deep history behind a specific area and see how the geologic inheritance from earlier events goes on through time, affecting the eventual formation of ore dep
osits and their subsequent exposure. Good stuff, all in one package! A cool report.
See my other items. I may have other reports on this district.
This would be a great item for a mineral collector, prosp
ector, historian, or armchair geologist looking to understand this important area better.
I will continue to add new items to my store, so check back periodically.
Expert P
acking Assured.
