Bedrock Geology of Grant County, Wisconsin

Three-dimensional bedrock mapping of Grant County at a scale of 1:100,000 provides new baseline information on the distribution of geologic units. Grant County contains Paleozoic bedrock units ranging in age from Silurian to Cambrian. Gentle folds and small faults deform the Paleozoic sequence and were mapped based on structure contours of the base of the...
