The Craggy Mountain Wilderness Study Area covers about 550 hectares of the Pisgah National Forest in the Blue Ridge Mountains of western North Carolina (fig. 1). The area is 21 km northeast of Asheville, Buncombe County, N.C., and 11 km southwest of Mount Mitchell, the highest point in eastern North America. The study area is bounded on the southeast by the Blue Ridge Parkway, on the northeast by Bullhead Ridge, and on the southwest and west by Big Fork Ridge (Plate 1b). It includes all of the Craggy Mountain scenic area established by the Forest Service in 1961 and some additional land west of Bearwallow Branch and along the middle part of Carter Creek for a short distance beyond the mouth of Peach Orchard Creek.

The area lies within the Coronado National Forest and forms a belt around the north, east, and south sides of the Saguaro National Monument (fig. 1). A mineral resource survey was made of the area in 1977 by the U.S. Geological Survey and the U.S. Bureau of Mines. This study indicates that the potential for finding metallic or nonmetallic mineral deposits, petroleum or coal or geothermal energy in the study area is low. This appraisal is based on geologic and geochemical investigations and on examination of all mineralized prospects. A geologic map was made of the area and its immediate surrounding. Chemical and spectrographic analyses were made of 1.30 stream-sediment samples and of 143 rock samples. The locations of mining claims were compiled and samples from most of the claims were assayed. There has been no recorded mineral production from within the study area.
The geology of the Rincon Mountains is structurally complex. The core of the Rincon Mountains, lying mainly within the Saguaro National Monument, is underlain by igneous and metamorphic rocks chiefly of Precambrian and Tertiary ages. The study area lies on the flanks of the mountains in a terrain of sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous rocks mainly of Precambrian through mid-Tertiary age. The rocks of this area are cut by many faults, with low-angle or bedding-parallel faults abundant. the distribution of these faulted rocks around the flanks of the Rincon Mountains is the result of a doming in the core area, the sliding of rock masses from the high part of the dome down its flanks, and to the effects of erosion.
The potential for economic metallic mineral deposits is considered low because the known areas of anomalous concentrations of metals are small and the concentration of metals weak and erratic. The surface signs of mineralization are largely restricted to 4 locales in which some prospects exist (fig. 1): (1) east of Colossal Cave, southwest or the Rincon Mountains, (2) north of Happy Valley, east of the mountains, (3) between Roble and Youtcy Canyons, northeast of the mountains, and (4) near Italian Trap north of the mountains. Very little primary sulfide mineralization is present and signs of alteration are restricted to narrow zones along faults and fractures. The geochemical anomalies are weak. The sites at which anomalous values of copper, molybdenum, or silver were obtained are mainly controlled by faults.
Nonmetallic mineral resources occur in deposits that are too small and too remote to be economically attractive. Sand and gravel deposits in the main drainages are similar to larger deposits that occur closer to nearby highways and cities. Limestone and marble present in some of the metamorphic rocks are too impure and too broken for use as dimension stone. Use of this marble as decorative rock is limited by remote markets. Limestone suitable for making cement is not likely to be found in large quantities within the Rincon wilderness study area.

The demand for water in the valley is approaching the limits of the locally available resource, which is the water yield of 9,000 acre-feet per year from the adjacent mountain areas.
The steady-state pumping rate from the ground-water basin is defined as the rate that just balances ground-water recharge and discharge. The recharge of water after agricultural or municipal use is a contribution toward overall ground-water recharge and, therefore, to the steady-state pumping rate. However, because the recharge factors are different for municipal and agricultural use, the total quantity of ground-water recharge from the beneficial use of water depends on the type of water use. Consequently, the steady-state pumping rate depends on the type of water use.

The study area comprises (1) about 9 square miles of reservation land, plus adjacent areas, on and bordering the floor of Quinn River valley near McDermitt, Nev., and (2) the uninhabited 5.6-square-mile Hog John Ranch (also part of the reservation) and adjacent areas along the boundary between Kings River and Desert Valley, about 35 miles southwest of McDermitt. \r\n\r\nIn both areas, the valley-fill reservoir forms the principal source of ground water. The reservoir is at least 1,225 feet deep at one site near McDermitt. Volcanic rocks also form an important source of ground water for several wells near McDermitt. A 12-inch diameter, 720-foot test well drilled on the reservation near McDermitt produced 360 gallons per minute with a drawdown of 149 feet (specific capacity, 2.4 gallons per minute per foot of drawdown). A transmissivity of 640 feet squared per day for this well was obtained from a 44-hour pumping test. Transmissivities for 6 Other wells in the McDermitt area ranged from 710 to 11,000 feet squared per day. In this area, water levels ranging from 3 to 250 feet below land surface have remained almost the same as those of 1964. Depth to water generally increases away from the valley lowlands. \r\n\r\nThe valley-fill reservoir in the Hog John Ranch area is at least 350 feet deep. Depth to water in the vicinity of the Ranch ranges from 0.25 to 48 feet, with deeper water levels generally found at higher land elevations. Net change in these water levels has been negligible for a period of nearly 30 years. Two adjacent test wells at the Ranch were augered to depths of 33 and 90 feet during this study, and completed with well-bottom screens. Differing water levels in the two wells indicate a minimum upward hydraulic gradient of about 0.07 foot per foot in the zone penetrated by the holes. \r\n\r\nWater quality in the McDermitt area is generally suitable for most uses. In the Ranch area, water salinity appears to decrease with increasing well depth, and is generally suitable for irrigation at depths exceeding 50 feet. \r\n\r\nThe East Fork Quinn River, which flows directly through the inhabited part of the reservation, has an average runoff of about 20,000 acre-feet per year at the gage 7 miles east of McDermitt. Streamflow from Quinn River, Kings River, and Desert Valleys passes intermittently through the Ranch by way of the Quinn River, but the quantity of flow is not known.","language":"ENGLISH","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey,","doi":"10.3133/ofr78139","usgsCitation":"Arteaga, F.E., 1978, Appraisal of water resources in the Fort McDermitt Indian Reservation, Humboldt County, Nevada: U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 78-139, vi, 64 p., 4 sheets, :ill., maps (some fold. in envelope) ;28 cm. --, https://doi.org/10.3133/ofr78139.","productDescription":"vi, 64 p., 4 sheets, :ill., maps (some fold. in envelope) ;28 cm. --","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":142092,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1978/0139/report-thumb.jpg"},{"id":35221,"rank":400,"type":{"id":17,"text":"Plate"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1978/0139/plate-1.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":35222,"rank":401,"type":{"id":17,"text":"Plate"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1978/0139/plate-2.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":35223,"rank":402,"type":{"id":17,"text":"Plate"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1978/0139/plate-3.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":35224,"rank":403,"type":{"id":17,"text":"Plate"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1978/0139/plate-4.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":35225,"rank":300,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1978/0139/report.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4ac6e4b07f02db67a2f3","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Arteaga, Freddy E.","contributorId":73601,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Arteaga","given":"Freddy","email":"","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":156542,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1}]}} ,{"id":6512,"text":"pp993 - 1978 - Historic ground failures in Northern California triggered by earthquakes","interactions":[],"lastModifiedDate":"2021-02-26T16:11:31.116168","indexId":"pp993","displayToPublicDate":"1994-01-01T00:00:00","publicationYear":"1978","noYear":false,"publicationType":{"id":18,"text":"Report"},"publicationSubtype":{"id":5,"text":"USGS Numbered Series"},"seriesTitle":{"id":331,"text":"Professional Paper","code":"PP","onlineIssn":"2330-7102","printIssn":"1044-9612","active":true,"publicationSubtype":{"id":5}},"seriesNumber":"993","title":"Historic ground failures in Northern California triggered by earthquakes","docAbstract":"A major source of earthquake-related damage and casualties in northern California has been ground failures generated by the seismic shaking, including landslides, lateral spreads, ground settlement, and surface cracks. The historical record shows that, except for offshore shocks, the geographic area affected and the quantity and general severity of ground failures increase markedly with Richter magnitude. Hence, the largest historical event, the 1906 San Francisco earthquake, has been the most important generator of ground failures. Because of recent population growth and land development in northern California, the potential for damage in future events is enormous compared with that existing in 1906.\r\n\r\nReports of the 1906 San Francisco earthquake and other northern California earthquakes and descriptions of ground failures therein are used to (1) identify and clarify the types of ground failures associated with earthquakes, (2) provide a guide for engineers, planners, and others responsible for minimizing seismic hazards, and (3) form a data base for other geotechnical studies of earthquake-triggered pound failures.\r\n\r\nGeologic, hydrologic, and topographic setting have an important influence on ground failure development as well as distance from the causative fault. Areas especially vulnerable to ground failure in northern California have been oversteepened slopes, such as mountain cliffs, streambanks, and coastal bluffs, and lowland deposits, principally Holocene fluvial deposits, deltaic deposits, and poorly compacted fills. Liquefaction has been the direct cause of most lowland failures. The historical record suggests that ground failures during future large earthquakes are most likely to occur at the same or geologically similar locations as failures during previous earhquakes.","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","doi":"10.3133/pp993","usgsCitation":"Youd, T.L., and Hoose, S.N., 1978, Historic ground failures in Northern California triggered by earthquakes: U.S. Geological Survey Professional Paper 993, Report: iv, 177 p.; 5 Plates: 34.00 x 21.00 inches and smaller; 2 Photographs folders, https://doi.org/10.3133/pp993.","productDescription":"Report: iv, 177 p.; 5 Plates: 34.00 x 21.00 inches and smaller; 2 Photographs folders","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"Y","costCenters":[{"id":650,"text":"Western Earthquake Hazards Team","active":false,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":123718,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/pp_993.jpg"},{"id":9879,"rank":100,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/pp/1978/pp0993/","linkFileType":{"id":5,"text":"html"}},{"id":383646,"rank":10,"type":{"id":7,"text":"Companion Files"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/pp/1978/pp0993/photographs/web-resolution","text":"Web-resolution Photographs folder","linkFileType":{"id":5,"text":"html"}},{"id":383645,"rank":9,"type":{"id":7,"text":"Companion Files"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/pp/1978/pp0993/photographs/print-resolution","text":"Print-resolution Photographs folder","linkFileType":{"id":5,"text":"html"}},{"id":383644,"rank":8,"type":{"id":17,"text":"Plate"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/pp/1978/pp0993/pp993_plate5.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":383639,"rank":3,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/pp/1978/pp0993/pp993_text.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":383640,"rank":4,"type":{"id":17,"text":"Plate"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/pp/1978/pp0993/pp993_plate1.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":383641,"rank":5,"type":{"id":17,"text":"Plate"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/pp/1978/pp0993/pp993_plate3.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":383642,"rank":6,"type":{"id":17,"text":"Plate"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/pp/1978/pp0993/pp993_plate2.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":383643,"rank":7,"type":{"id":17,"text":"Plate"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/pp/1978/pp0993/pp993_plate4.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}}],"country":"United States","state":"California","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ -124,35 ], [ -124,41 ], [ -119,41 ], [ -119,35 ], [ -124,35 ] ] ] } } ] }","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4ae1e4b07f02db68864d","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Youd, T.

The average annual inflow for the period 1931-76 was about 2.9 million acre-feet; 1.9 million acre-feet from surface sources, about 900,000 acre-feet from direct precipitation, and about 75,000 acre-feet from ground water. The average annual outflow for the same period, all be evaportion, also was about 2.9 million acre-feet. Storage changes are computed on the basis of changes in the surface level of the lake. During the period of historic record, 1847-1978, the lake surface has fluctuated within a range of about 20 feet but has shown little overall change. The lake surface would have been about 5 feet higher in 1978 than it was in 1947 had there been no consumptive use of water caused by man 's activities in the lake basin. Since 1959 the lake has been divided into two parts by a railroad causeway, which has restricted the natural circulation. This has resulted in a difference of salinity and of surface level across the causeway. The difference in surface level between the two parts of the lake varies seasonally and annually and has been as much as 2.35 feet.

Sedimentary rocks of the sequence are commonly eroded and well exposed near the present basin margins where Tertiary tectonic activity has uplifted, folded, and faulted the sequence into its present geologic configuration of basins, platforms, monoclines, and other related structural features. Sedimentary rocks of Jurassic age in the southern part of the San Juan Basin contain the largest uranium deposits in the United States, and offer the promise of additional uranium deposits.

Small but statistically significant differences are observed in peak values of horizontal acceleration, velocity, and displacement recorded on soil at the base of small structures compared with values recorded at the base of large structures. Values of peak horizontal acceleration recorded at soil sites in the San Fernando earthquake are not significantly different from the values recorded at rock sites, but values of peak horizontal velocity and displacement are significantly greater at soil sites than at rock sites. Three recently published relationships for predicting peak horizontal acceleration are compared and discussed.

These formations strike east to west and crop out over the north coast of the island. Structurally, the rocks form a simple wedge abutting southward against a mountain chain of volcanic origin and thickening northward to about 1,400 meters by the seashore. All stages of karstification are present: from the incipient, found at the western end of the belt to the residual, found at the eastern end. Maximum development of sinkholes occurs on the Aguada Limestone and upper part of the Aymanom Limestone. These formations have a CaCO3 content range from about 85 to 95 percent. The denudation rate of the Limestone belt through solution is computed as 0.70 mm per year with some evidence that abrasion may increase the denudation rate locally by as much as 40 percent.

The two modes occur at 54 ? 4 and 37 ? 3 weight per cent chromic oxide corresponding to chromite designated as high-chromium and high-aluminum chromite respectively. The high-chromium chromite occurs exclusively with highly magnesian olivine (Fo92-97) and some interstitial diopside. The high-aluminum chromite is associated with more ferrous olivine (Fo88-92), diopside, enstatite, and feldspar.\r\n\r\nThe plot of the mole ratios Cr/(Cr+Al+Fe3+) vs. Mg/(Mg+Fe2+) usually presented for alpine chromite is shown to have a high-chromium, high-iron to low-chromium, low-iron trend contrary to that shown by stratiform chromite. This trend is characteristic of alpine type chromite and is termed the alpine trend. However, a trend similar to that for startiform chromite is discernable on the graph for the high-chromium chromite data. This latter trend is well-developed at Red Mountain, Seldovia, Alaska.\r\n\r\nAnalysis of the iron-magnesium distribution coefficient, Kd=(Fe/Mg)ol/(Fe/Mg)ch, between olivine and chromite shows that Kd for the high-chromium chromite from all ultramafic complexes has essentially the same constant value of .05 while the distribution coefficient for the high-aluminum chromite varies with composition of the chromite. These distribution coefficients are also characteristic of alpine-type chromites. The constant value for Kd for the high-chromium chromite and associated high-magnesium olivine in all alpine complexes suggests that they all crystallized under similar physico-chemical conditions.\r\n\r\nThe two types of massive chromite and their associations of silicate minerals suggest the possibility of two populations with different origins. Recrystallization textures associated with the high-aluminum chromite together with field relationships between the gabbro and the chromite pods, suggest that the high-aluminum chromite was formed by metamorphic recrystallization of the ultramafic rocks and adjacent gabbro.","language":"ENGLISH","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey,","doi":"10.3133/ofr78119","usgsCitation":"Bird, M.L., 1978, Electron-microprobe study of chromitites associated with alpine ultramafic complexes and some genetic implications: U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 78-119, vi, 39 leaves, 15 leaves of ill. :ill. ;27 cm.; (61 p. - PGS), https://doi.org/10.3133/ofr78119.","productDescription":"vi, 39 leaves, 15 leaves of ill. :ill. ;27 cm.; (61 p. - PGS)","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":140064,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1978/0119/report-thumb.jpg"},{"id":35451,"rank":300,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1978/0119/report.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4a18e4b07f02db6052c1","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Bird, M.

The major section of the catalog is the table of determinations which includes the cost, required sample volume, sample treatment, and precision. This table is divided into three sections: Inorganic determinations, organic determinations, and biological determinations.
The \"Inorganic determinations\" are subdivided into major ions, major nutrients, trace constituents, physical parameters, and radiochemical measurements. The \"Organic determinations\" are subdivided into gross measures, pesticides, and munition products. The \"Biological determinations\" are subdivided into gross measures, periphyton, phytoplankton and benthic invertebrates.
Regardless of the outline form attempted, exceptions and gray areas were encountered. Generally, exceptions were placed into the groups based on a sample designation. As a result, frequent use of the index may be required until users become familiar with the catalog.

This report includes titles published during the period 1975 through June 1977, but is not necessarily complete, as an exhaustive search was not made; however, it is being released in open file in order to make the data available to the public on an interim basis. Seven geographic regions and 57 countries are represented. A few titles published prior to 1975 are listed because they were not included in Bulletins 1263 or 1426. Only reports authored solely or in part by USGS members, or jointly by USGS and counterpart staff members, are listed.

Subsidence in the lagoon of 30 cm occurred east of the San Andreas fault in 1906. \r\n\r\nNear the east shore, seismic-reflection profiling indicates the existence of a graben fault that may connect to a graben fault on the Golden Gate Platform. Comparison of radiocarbon dates on shells and plant debris from boreholes drilled on Stinson Beach spit with a relative sea-level curve constructed for southern San Francisco Bay indicates 5.8 to more than 17.9 m of tectonic subsidence of sediments now located 33 m below mean sea level. \r\n\r\nCored sediments indicate a marine transgression dated at 7770?65 yrs B.P. overlying freshwater organic-rich lake deposits. Fossil pollen including 2 to 8 percent Picea (spruce) indicate a late Pleistocene (?)-Early Holocene climate, cooler, wetter, and foggier than at present. Above the transgression are discontinuous and interfingering sequences of transgressive-regressive marine, estuarine, and barrier sediments that reflect rapid lateral and vertical shifts of successive depositional environments. Fossil megafauna indicate (1) accumulation in a protected, shallow-water estuary or bay, and (2) that the lagoon was probably continuously shallow and never a deep-water embayment. \r\n\r\nAnalysis of grain-size parameters, pollen frequencies, and organic remains from a core near the north end of the lagoon indicates (1) that mid-nineteenth-century redwood logging correlates with rates of sediment accumulation of l.3 to 1.9 cm/yr that are three to 6 times higher than post-1906 rates of 0.3 to 0.4 cm/yr, (2) accumulation of up to 115 cm of sediment since 1849, and (3) an anomalously coarse-grained sediment that may correlate with the 1906 earthquake.","language":"ENGLISH","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey,","doi":"10.3133/ofr78802","usgsCitation":"Berquist, J.R., 1978, Depositional history and fault-related studies, Bolinas Lagoon, California: U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 78-802, viii, 164 leaves :ill., maps (some fold.) ;27 cm.;
