The hydromechanical properties of the uppermost basement and of the basement–sediment interface influence multiple geologic processes of societal relevance, including the flow of groundwater; the accumulation of hydrocarbons, economic minerals, and geothermal resources; and the response of seismo

This map presents a graphic means for engineers, planners, and property owners to recognize and cope with the changes in substrate properties across this fault zone. Fault displacement has created a profound and abrupt change in land-use capabilities in this area.

Deepwater slope deposits in the Virgilian- Wolfcampian Cisco Group in Lake Trammel South field in Nolan County, Texas, have produced oil and gas since the early 1950’s. Nevertheless, the field and adjacent areas have the potential for additional development.

Geology illustrated on this map and accompanying geologic map database was revised using field, aerial-photograph, and LiDAR interpretations following a review of previous work on the area’s geology.
