Geologic Survey Reports Findings in Story and Hardin Counties
Dr S W Beyer of the Agricultural College led a survey with students in Story and Hardin counties. Mapping reveals moraines marking ice retreat, loess beds near Ames for dry pressed brick, coal measures and St Louis limestone areas, and river history in Hardin County. The Steamboat Rock bend links to glacial action. Alden marble beds are brittle and unlikely to be valuable. Folds and mountain structures are rare in Iowa.
