Description:

Abstract:

Hildenbrand and Ravat (1997) inferred the locations of near-surface dikes from analyses of high-resolution aeromagnetic data. The lines represent locations of magnetic highs that they interpreted as dikes. Modeling indicates the dikes are vertical, extend to within 200 m of the surface, and have the magnetic properties of mafic or ultramafic rock. Some of the interpreted dikes coincide with the easternmost Early Permian, mica peridotite and perhaps lamprophyre dikes that Nelson mapped (these are in cover lampdike.) Hildenbrand and Ravat concluded that the interpreted dikes are also probably Early Permian ultramafic intrusions.

Purpose:

The data was generated to help in understanding the seismotectonic hazards in the vicinity of the lower Wabash Valley. This data complements similar data collected in the vicinity of New Madrid, MO US Geological Survey Open-File Report 95-0574, available at http://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1995/0574/
