Geologic formations and individual coal beds were mapped at a scale of 1:24,000; surface stratigraphic sections were measured and described; and well logs were examined to determine coal correlations and thicknesses in the subsurface. Detailed measured sections are provided for the type sections of the Red Rim Member of the Upper Cretaceous Lance Formation and China Butte and Overland Members of the Paleocene Fort Union Formation; these members were named in U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Map 2835, version 1.1 (Honey and Hettinger, 2004). Purpose: The data set was collected as part of a larger effort to acquire data on Upper Cretaceous and Tertiary coal-bearing rocks in the eastern Washakie Basin and southeastern Great Divide Basin. Regions in the eastern Washakie Basin and southeastern Great Divide Basin have potential for coal development and were considered previously for coal leasing by the U.S. Bureau of Land Management.

This map was thoroughly reviewed for conformity with U.S. Geological Survey editorial standards and stratigraphic nomenclature. Logical_Consistency_Report: Map elements were visually checked by the authors, cartographers, and editor for overshoots, undershoots, duplicate features, polygon attributes, and other errors. The coverages were cleaned in ARC/INFO to ensure logical consistency that is topologically clean. The map was reviewed by other geologists for consistency with basic geologic principles and general conformity to USGS mapping standards. Completeness_Report: This dataset is complete and includes the spatial coverages pertaining to the geologic map. Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report: Users of this digital geologic map should respect the intentions of the original mappers and the map compilers, and the limitations of the map. The geology data set of the Doty Mountain 7.5-minute quadrangle is intended to be used at a scale of 1:24,000. It is not intended to be used at a more detailed scale. Quantitative_Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Assessment: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Value: 3 m Lineage: Process_Step: Process_Description: Mapping was based on field observations, analysis of black and white aerial photographs (scale 1:28,000 and 1:20,000, flown in 1975) and color aerial photographs (scale 1:36,000, flown in 1975), topography, and drill-hole data. The linework was transferred from aerial photographs to base maps using a PG-2 stereo-plotter, and digitized manually, and the data were then digitally registered to a digital version of the base map in ARC/INFO. Geologic cross sections show the subsurface thickness of coal beds in the units of interest. The correlation charts were constructed using stratigraphic sections measured in the field and from borehole electrical logs.
