Abstract
Between July 1954 and May 1955 two test holes were drilled near Kramer Calif., on the Mojave Desert. Four Corners test hole 1 was drilled in sec. 20 T. 10 N., R. 6 W., San Bernardino base line and meridian, to a depth of 1,561 feet in a basin filled with Quaternary and Tertiary sediments. The core is predominantly sand and conglomerate composed of mostly unweathered quartz monzonite debris.
Four Corners test hole 2 was drilled in sec. 5, T. 10 N., R. 8 W., in a separate sediment-filled basin. The core from this hole is less consolidated and more weathered. It is predominantly clay, silt, sand, and gravel composed of quartz monzonitic and volcanic material.
Detailed logs of the cores are given in this report.
