Question

For each geologic map shown below, complete the tasks listed. 1. a. Draw a strike and dip symbol on the map indicating the approximate bedding orientation in the sedimentary rocks (assume their contacts are parallel and planar). b. Sketch a vertical profile (cross section) along the line indicated in the space provided below. Locate contacts on the topographic profile based on where they cross the cross section line on the map; then sketch the approximate dips and intersecting relations. c. What type of contact might it be between the granite and the sedimentary rocks? List the possibilities permitted by the rock types and the geometrical relationships. d. Identify two pieces of additional geologic information that could resolve uncertainty in the type of contact that bounds the granite, AND briefly explain HOW that information applies to this example.
