Interim Geologic Map of the Midvale Quadrangle, Salt Lake County, Utah
View through CrossRef
The Midvale 7.5' quadrangle is in the south-central part of Salt Lake Valley. The quadrangle contains parts of Midvale City, South Jordan City, West Jordan City, Riverton City, Sandy City, Draper City, Herriman City, and Bluffdale City and the southern part of South Valley Regional Airport. The Jordan River and Bingham, Midas, Barneys, Rose, Corner Canyon, Willow, and Dry Creeks flow through the quadrangle. A single outcrop of Pennsylvanian Oquirrh Group bedrock, likely Bingham Mine Formation, was previously exposed in the southeast corner of the quadrangle; however, recent development has destroyed and covered this outcrop. The surficial geology is composed of alluvial, deltaic, eolian, lacustrine, and massmovement deposits. The Midvale quadrangle was mapped to provide geologic data for a variety of derivative uses. The Utah Geological Survey (UGS) Geologic Hazards Mapping Initiative will use this map to identify and delimit potential geologic hazards for UGS geologic hazard maps of urban, high recreational use, and rapidly developing areas
