Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the geology of California's Macdoel Quadrangle, a region encompassing volcanic landscapes and diverse rock formations. It begins with a detailed account of the region's geological history, tracing its origins to the Paleozoic and Mesozoic eras, with metamorphic and sedimentary rocks forming the bedrock. The arrival of the Eocene epoch brought about the deposition of freshwater sediments, followed by intense volcanic activity during the Western Cascade and High Cascade periods. The book extensively describes the various lava flows, pyroclastic rocks, sediments, volcanic necks, domes, and dikes found throughout the Quadrangle, providing insights into their composition, structure, and origins. The author also discusses the region's economic geology, including coal deposits, copper and molybdenum occurrences, and the utilization of volcanic materials for building and ornamental purposes. The book concludes with an exploration of the area's intriguing geological features, such as circular soil structures, shedding light on the region's complex geological processes. Overall, this book offers a multifaceted examination of the Macdoel Quadrangle, making it an essential resource for geologists, students, and anyone interested in the fascinating geological history of California.
