Geologic map that depicts the surface geology of Mason, Llano, and Gillespie Counties and parts of Menard, Kimble, San Saba, McCulloch, Edwards, Real, Kerr, Kendall, Blanco, Hays, Travis, Williamson, and Burnet Counties, Texas.

Middle and Upper Cambrian rocks and locally up to 90 feet of Lower Ordovician rocks in Central Texas, are here named the Moore Hollow Group.

Trilobites collected during the past 20 years from the Morgan Creek, Point Peak, and San Saba Members of the Wilberns Formation comprise 89 species assigned to 45 genera belonging to zones of the upper Franconian and Trempealeauan Stages of the Upper Cambrian Croixan Series.

This work was begun in 1964 and substantially completed in 1965; at that time conodont zones had been established in North America only for the Upper Devonian, by Clark and Becker (1960) for the Great Basin and Collinson, Scott, and Rexroad (1962) for the mid-continent.

The San Saba Member of the Wilberns Formation of central Texas is mostly coarse-grained, trilobitic limestone that grades eastward to dolomite and contains sandstone intervals in its westernmost exposures.

The red upper unit of the Hickory Sandstone is a hematitic and goethitic sandstone containing a large reserve of potential low-grade iron ore.

Forty-three species belonging to 28 genera, 12 species of brachipods belonging to 8 genera, and 1 species of gastropods are described from the Morgan Creek, Point Peak, and San Saba Members of the Wilberns Formation in the Llano Uplift.

Fall Prong quadrangle is in the marginal portion of the Edwards Plateau near the southeastern corner of the Llano region. Almost three-quarters of the quadrangle is within the Edwards Plateau, and the rest consists of valleys of the Llano basin cutting back into the plateau.
