Geologic Terrane Map of Nevada (2 plates) by A. Elizabeth Crafford (2010)

Plate 1 is a 1:500,000-scale map illustrating the Paleozoic and Mesozoic geologic history of Nevada as defined by Crafford (2007). Plate 2 is a series of 1:3,000,000-scale time slices illustrating tectonic events between the evolving continental margin in Nevada and accreted terranes outboard of the margin. The maps are derived primarily from the Geologic Map of Nevada 1:500,000-scale compilation by Stewart and Carlson (USGS, 1978) and the 1:250,000-scale county geologic maps (NBMG, various dates), plus other sources.
