Synopsis
Excerpt from Pennsylvania Glaciation First Phase: Materials for a Discussion of the Attenuated Border of the Moraine Described in Volume Z of the Second, Geological Survey of Pennsylvania
Native copper and crystalline rocks are found only in the extreme eastern and western parts of Pennsylvania in the drift of this Phase. In both localities floating ice seems to have played an important part. With no intention of claiming a Lake Superior origin for the Connecticut and Eastern Pennsylvania copper, the latter can not come from the Trias entirely, as it is found in Monroe County, north of Kittatinny Mountain. Western Pennsylvania copper certainly has a Keewatin origin, and the specimen was berg-carried.

Pennsylvania Glaciation First Phase (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book focuses on an attenuated border that forms the southern boundary of a glacial moraine in Pennsylvania, showcasing evidence to demonstrate that it represents the southern limit of the first ice sheet phase. The author presents a descriptive physical geography of the region and discusses the First Glacial Phase's characteristics. The book assesses glacial striae, which are associated with regional troughs over which the First Phase moved toward and upon Pennsylvania. It also provides a comprehensive list of possible rocks in the drift, and utilizes drainage lines to indicate where each lobe lost some of its basal burden. Ultimately, this book underscores the significance of the attenuated border as evidence of the First Glacial Phase, providing valuable insights into the geological history of Pennsylvania and furthering our understanding of the First Phase's movement and impact.
