... as the “Bone Wars,” during which Sioux Tribes’ paleontology resources were plundered (Bradley 2014 ). Cope traversed many parts of Sioux Country during his career and collected important dinosaurian fossils from the Standing Rock Reservation (Osborn 1931 ). Contemporaneously, Professor Marsh of the Yale...

However, later investigations of land ownership boundaries found that two of the three excavations performed by Concordia crews actually took place on land owned by the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation. Accordingly, fossils collected in these first...

... of these rocks in or near the area under discussion. In the subsurface these beds occur in the basin north and east of the Black Hills and south and probably southwest of the Sioux uplift. In Manitoba these beds contain anhydrite, gypsum, and white to red, pure to shaly, finely crystalline to crystalline...

Van Wyck ( 1995 ) analyzed seven rounded detrital zircon grains from a stratigraphic level ∼1250 m above the base of the Baraboo Quartzite and obtained 207 Pb/ 206 Pb ages...

... discoveries are on the Central Kansas uplift and probably all will eventually prove to be extensions of old fields. So much of the development of Kansas reserves in 1939 was routine that few important highlights stand out. Due to approaching expiration of many leases, wells were drilled that otherwise...

... was within the Sioux Indian reservation. Bands of prospectors had entered these lands, antagonizing the Sioux, led there by the reported finding of gold by Custer’s and earlier expeditions. 13 The U. S. Government, under the auspices of the Indian Bureau, proposed to send experts to examine the region...

On the eastern and southern fringes of the basin pre-Winnipeg erosion cut out the entire formation, but it reappears under the same unconformity on the southern flank of the Sioux arch (cf...

He knew little about geology, and was in fact generally impatient with geologists who were prone to be too deliberate in the field to suit...

...Esther K. Stewart; Latisha A. Brengman; Eric D. Stewart Abstract Up to 2 km of siliciclastic and chemical sedimentary rocks, metamorphosed to greenschist facies, are preserved in the Baraboo Hills of southern Wisconsin. The strata compose two sedimentary successions separated by an angular...

... and the uneager. The same distinction seems to apply generally. F. V. Hayden, a mediocre but eager geologist whom the Sioux Indians called “The-man-who-picks-up-rocks-running,” made the Geographical and Geological Survey of the Territories remarkably productive. I believe this eagerness can come only from...

... of the molasse basins, which include (1) basal unconformities with older sedimentary, volcanic, or plutonic rocks; (2) bounding fault systems; (3) basin margin porphyry stocks; (4) coarse clastic facies; and (5) locally interstratified tholeiitic, calc-alkaline, and ultrapotassic volcanic rocks, can be compared...

... beryl-type pegmatites are hosted by metasedimentary rocks (metawacke or metapelite) of the Sioux Lookout Domain. Pegmatites within the Quetico subprovince are hosted by metasedimentary rocks or their fertile granitic parents. For example, the spodumene-subtype Wisa Lake pegmatite is hosted...

On the basis of these observations the Chahilgazi area, as mapped on the Landsat geologic map, is interpreted as a near-contact zone just above the roof of the magma...

..., in the fall of 1885, General Armstrong arranged for Elaine Goodale to tour the “Great Sioux Reservation” in what was then Dakota Territory. Florence, who had returned to Madison in June, proposed to accompany the party as far as the Missouri River. Following a brief visit with the Bascoms in Madison...
