Explore the minerals and rocks of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula through a detailed, field‑ready study.
This nonfiction volume compiles long‑form observations from the Geological Survey’s 1869–1873 work on the Huronian rocks and associated ores. It presents lithologic descriptions, provisional nomenclature, and practical notes designed for explorers, miners, and geologists alike. The content blends field descriptions with offshoots on microscopic analysis, rock classification, and ore characteristics.
- Detailed lithologic descriptions of hundreds of specimens from the Huronian formation (plus related Laurentian rocks), using practical field observations.
- Guidance on mineral identification, textures, weathering, and fracture patterns relevant to exploration and mining.
- Discussions of naming conventions and provisional classifications to aid interpretation in the field.
- Appendices and notes that document methods, comparative tables, and related mineralogical discussions.
Ideal for readers who work with rocks and ores of the Lake Superior region, as well as students and hobbyists seeking a hands‑on reference to Upper Peninsula geology.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents a detailed analysis of the Huronian rock formations in the Marquette region of northern Michigan. Written in the late 19th century, this book is considered a foundational work in the field of geology, and is notably the first comprehensive petrographic analysis of the region. The author, Alexis A. Julien, meticulously describes over 360 rock specimens, collected over several years of field study, and catalogs them using a system he developed for this purpose. He provides detailed descriptions of both common and rare rock types, including granite, gneiss, schist, and iron-ore deposits. The author also discusses the geological processes that formed these rocks, and the broader implications of his findings for understanding the region's geological history. Julien's work is a valuable resource for geologists and historians alike, providing a comprehensive overview of the geology of the Marquette region and contributing significantly to our understanding of the Earth's geological development. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
