The gabbros and associated hornblende rocks occurring in the neighborhood of Baltimore, Maryland
George Huntington Williams
1886, Bulletin 28
Considerable attention has been devoted during late years to the metamorphism of igneous rocks, and it can now be regarded as placed beyond reasonable doubt that such rocks may be changed to more or less schistose masses, which often closely resemble crystallized sediments. This possibility has heretofore been largely ignored,...

Geology and mining industry of Leadville, Colorado, with atlas

Tables of geographic positions, azimuths, and distances, together with lists of barometric altituudes, magnetic declinations, and itineraries of important routes, from data gathered by parties of the United States Geographical Surveys west of the 100th meridian, operating in the States and Territories of California, Colorado, Nebraska, Nevada, Oregon, Arizona, Idaho, Montana, New Mexico, and Wyoming, 1883
Montgomery Meigs Macomb, George Montague Wheeler
1885, Report
Through the following tables there are presented, in accessible form, such portions of the more important numerical results of this Survey, from the year 1873 to 1879, inclusive, as it has been found neeessar, to compute pari passu with the plottings made from the field notes, together with such additional...
Sketch of paleobotany
Lester Frank Ward
1885, Report, Fifth Annual Report of the Director, 1883-'84
To understand the true force of the facts of paleobotany as arguments for geology it is essential that their full biologic significance be grasped. It has therefore been deemed proper, in this introduction to the several tabular and systematic statements which will make up the bulk of the volume and...
Notes on the stratigraphy of California
George Ferdinand Becker
1885, Bulletin 19
A complete examination of the Coast Ranges of California can hardly be undertaken by the Geological Survey for some years to come, consistently with the plans at present formed. The detailed study of certain small areas in these ranges, however, raised a number of questions as to the age and...

On the higher Devonian faunas of Ontario county, New York
John Mason Clarke
1885, Bulletin 16
The materials and the conclusions presented in this paper are the partial results of studies of the Devonian of Western New York, which have been of several years duration. Since the summer of 1877 much attention has been given to the finer subdivision of the Devonian on strictly paleontological evidence,...

Roland Duer Irving, Thomas C. Chamberlin
1885, Bulletin 23
Although the copper-bearing rocks of Lake Superior and the adjoining formations have attracted the attention of geologists for fifty years past, there are yet remaining unsolved very many problems with regard to them. We have ourselves, indeed, written at some length with regard to these rocks, and one of us...
