Geology of the Big Horn Basin Explored in Detail
J Booth presents a full digest of the Big Horn Basin geology citing Fisher and Darton. The talk surveys nine geological systems from Pre-Cambrian granite to Quaternary volcanic rock, detailing formations like Deadwood, Madison limestone, Tensleep sandstone, Chugwater red beds, Sundance shales, Morrison and Pierre, Wasatch, and Laramie. It traces basin uplift, ancient seas, erosion, and the basin’s paleo history with notes on regional extent and outcrops near Basin, Shell Creek, and the Montana line.
