Item Fringe depositional units : a way of tracing the modern transgression through geologic mapping(South Carolina State Library, 2011) Doar, William R., IIIMapping of Coastal South Carolina at 1:24,000-scale and subsequent review of aerial photography produced conflicting interpretations of the marsh’s landward edge. Biologically the areas were identified as salt marsh in the photographs but geologically were composed of little to no modern estuarine sediments. The “fringe” unit was created for the purpose of mapping to address the potential conflict for what to assign the areas.Item Deformational and metamorphic history of Campobello 7.5-minute quadrangle, Tugaloo terrane, inner Piedmont, South Carolina(South Carolina State Library, 2011-03-30) South Carolina Geological Survey; Chan Soo, Rhonda; Wickard, Alyssa K.; Garihan, John M.; Ranson, William A.; Furman University, Earth and Environmental SciencesCampobello 7.5-minute quadrangle (CQ) is located on the Six Mile thrust sheet within the Tugaloo terrane of the Inner Piedmont Geologic mapping of fifteen 7.5-(1995-minute quadrangles in the Western Inner Piedmont of South Carolina by Furman University and the South Carolina Geological Survey personnel (1995-2010) has investigated the polyphase fold deformation, faulting, and metamorphic history of the region. Our mappin gtraces the sestructures into CQ.Item Plate tectonics(South Carolina State Library, 2005-10) South Carolina Geological SurveyThis document is designed to meet South Carolina Department of Education 2005 Science Academic Standards.Item Geologic time and earth’s biological history(South Carolina State Library, 2005) South Carolina Geological SurveyThis document is designed to meet South Carolina Department of Education 2005 Science Academic Standards.Item Lake Murray Spillway : delving into the core of the Dreher Shoals terrane, Columbia, South Carolina(South Carolina State Library, 2012-08-20) South Carolina Geological Survey; Howard, C. ScottThe Lake Murray Spillway is an excellent laboratory, which can be used to begin an exploration of the adjacent area. The exposed geology shows structural, petrologic, stratigraphic, mineralogic, and tectonic relations.
