Abstract:
Approximately 3,300 feet of metasedimentary rocks believed to correlate lithologically with Units C, D, E, F, and G of the late Precambrian McCoy Creek Group (Misch and Hazzard, 1962) is exposed in the Pilot Range. Unit G is disconformably overlain by Lower Cambrian Prospect Mountain Quartzite (restricted).
These Precambrian rocks were regionally metamorphosed to slate, argillite, phyllite, metasiltstone, and quartzite. The rocks of Unit G show the effects of subsequent static thermal metamorphism of biotite grade.
The Precambrian rock units have characteristic heavy-mineral assemblages that are useful in correlation.
