38 BIBLIOGRAPHY OF TENNESSEE GEOLOGY. 



K. 



Kain (John H.). 



Remarks on the mineralogy and geology of the northwestern part of the 

 State of Virginia and eastern part of the State of Tennessee. 

 Amer. Jour. Sci., vol. 1, pp. 60-67, 1819. 



Keith (Arthur). 



1. Some stages of Appalachian erosion. 



Geol. Soc. Am., Bull., vol. VII, pp. 519-525, pi. 24, 1896. 



Describes the drainage features, surface forms, and variations of level 



in the southern Appalachians, and the peneplains of the Tennessee 



Basin. 



2. Geology of Chilhowee Mountain in Tennessee. 



Washington Phil. Soc., Bull., vol. XII, pp. 71-88, 1892. 



States that the structure is synclinal and the mountain is formed of the 

 oldest sedimentary rocks. Discusses the lithologic evidences bearing on 

 the age of the limestone series and the contact relations of the beds. 

 Concludes that the Chilhowee-Knox interval indicates that the Appa- 

 lachian folding and faulting began after the depositon of the first Pale- 

 ozoic beds instead of the last. 



3. Greeneville folio, Tennessee-North Carolina. 



U. S. Geol. Surv., Geol. Atlas of the U. S., folio No. 118, 1895. 



Describes the general relations of the Greeneville quadrangle, its detailed 

 geography, the general geological structure of the area, the character, 

 occurrence, and relations of Archean, Cambrian, Ordovidian, Silurian, 

 and Carboniferous rocks, and the mineral resources. 



4. Wartburg folio, Tennessee. 



U. S. Geol. Surv., Geol. Atlas of the U. S., folio No. 40, 1897. 



Describes the topographic features and the geologic history of the quad- 

 rangle, the character and occurrence of the Carboniferous rocks, the 

 geologic structure, and the occurrence of coal and petroleum. Includes 

 topographic and geologic maps. 



5. Knoxville folio, Tennessee and North Carolina. 



U. S. Geol. Surv., Geol. Atlas of the U. S., folio No. 16, 1895. 



Describes the physiography of the region, the character and distribution 

 of the Ocoee group, the Cambrian, Silurian Devonian, and Carboniferous 

 rocks, the structure of the region, and the occurrence of marble, build- 

 ing stone, lime and clay. Includes topographic, colored areal geo- 

 logic, economic geologic, and structure section maps. 



6. London folio, Tennessee. 



U. S. Geol. Surv., Geol. Atlas of the U. S., folio No. 25, 1896. 



Describes the physiographic and stratigraphic features of the region, the 

 character and distribution of certain rocks of unknown age and of the 

 Cambrian, Silurian, Devonian, and Carboniferous strata, the geologic 

 structure of the region, and the occurrence of coal and building stones. 

 Includes topographic, geologic, and structure section maps and a sheeet 

 of columnar sections. 



7. Briceville folio, Tennessee. 



U. S. Geol. Surv., Geol. Atlas of the U. S., folio No. 33, 1896. 



Describes the physical features of the Appalachian province, the topo- 

 graphic and stratigraphic features of the quadrangle, the character and 

 distribution of the Cambrian, Silurian, Devonian, and Carboniferous 

 strata, the geologic structure, and the occurrence of coal, marble, iron, 

 clay, and building stones. Includes topographic, geologic, and structure 

 section maps.
