Work has been completed in adjacent quadrangles on the east, west, and south. Study of the petrology, stratigraphy, structure, and geomorphology reveals the geologic history of the area. The topography, a result of modification by Pleistocene glaciation imposed on a landscape of late maturity, has been developed on the following formations (from oldest to youngest): Lost Brook, Perry Mountain, Parmachenee, and Madrid. More than 12,000 feet of Orodovician to Mid-Silurian strata constitute a variety of rock types which have undergone the effects of regional and contact metamorphism [TRUNCATED] 2018-06-26T16:24:33Z 2018-06-26T16:24:33Z 1961 1961 Thesis/Dissertation b1469105x https://hdl.handle.net/2144/29708 99195256040001161 en_US Based on investigation of the BU Libraries' staff, this work is free of known copyright restrictions.
