Figure 1b. Close-up of area near pack in figure 1a. Note clastic dikes injected into baseof megabreccia.Figure 2a. Base of Markagunt megabreccia (exposed just south of Haycock Mountain onthe southeast side of an unnamed hill at the head of Little Coal Wash, NE1/4 section 6, T.36 S., R. 6 W.). The basal part of the megabreccia consists of about 30 feet (10 m) ofbrecciated, pulverized, and resilicified Isom Formation (Tm[Ti]), which grades abruptlyupward into fractured but otherwise undisturbed Isom Formation. Basal conglomerate is31
hidden by shadow; we tentatively assign underlying volcaniclastc sandstone to theLimerock Canyon Formation (Tl).Figure 2b. Close-up of brecciated and pulverized Isom Formation shown in figure 2a;Brunton compass for scale.Figure 2c. Close-up of slickenlinesexposed at the west side of figure2a. Slickenlines trend 20° NW. andplunge 30° on the base of themegabreccia, which forms a planarsurface that strikes N. 50° W. anddips 15° NE. Note basalconglomerate at base ofmegabreccia.32
