Creating virtual geologic mapping exercises in a changing world
Abstract The Blue Ridge province in north-central Virginia forms a large basement massif at the hinterland edge of the central Appalachian fold-and-thrust belt. Rocks and structures exposed in the Blue Ridge record a long tectonic history that encompasses the Mesoproterozoic Grenvillian orogen, Neoproterozoic Iapetan crustal extension, multiple Paleozoic collisional events, and Mesozoic tectonism. The purpose of this field trip is to provide an overview of Blue Ridge tectonics, highlight the findings of recent studies, and discuss the outstanding questions that remain unanswered in Blue Ridge geology. The trip will traverse the Blue Ridge from southeast to northwest and includes stops along the Skyline Drive in Shenandoah National Park and the Shenandoah Valley.

Granitic rocks of the Robertson River Pluton intrude Precambrian Y gneisses in the core of the Catoctin-Blue Ridge Anticlinorium in northern Virginia. Cobbles and boulders of lithologically similar granite are present in the overlying Mechum River and Fauquier (Lynchburg) formations. Dikes of metabasalt, texturally and lithologically similar to the flows of the Catoctin Formation cut the Robertson River Pluton. The Catoctin metavolcanic rocks themselves were extruded following deposition of the Fauquier and correlative clastic sedimentary rocks. Zircons from four samples of the Robertson River Pluton yield a discordant U-Pb age of 730 m.y., indicating that the Catoctin Formation is considerably younger than the 820 m.y. previously assigned.
