Banded metasiltstones in Trigo Canyon : the story they tell about the Proterozoic deformational history of the Manzano Mountains
Proterozoic banded metasiltstones in the Manzano Mountains of central New Mexico are a distinctive structural marker in the Capilla Peak Quadrangle. These rocks are important because they preserve a record of early history of the Manzano thrust belt. The rocks are newly interpreted as mylonitized …

New structural interpretation, microstructural analyses, and preliminary monazite geochronology of Proterozoic rocks in the central Manzano Mountains, New Mexico
The Manzano Mountains of central New Mexico, on the east flank of the Rio Grande Rift, provide excellent outcrops of Proterozoic basement. Rock types in the area include Sevilleta metarhyolite, amphibolitic metavolcanic rocks, schist, meta-lithic arenite, banded metarhyolite, the White Ridge and …

Polyphase tectonics and metamorphism and their relation to movement on the Monte Largo shear zone in the Manzano Mountains, central New Mexico
The Proterozoic rocks of the Manzano Mountains of central New Mexico preserve evidence of multiple deformation events. The dominant foliation is the northeast-trending S2 that overprints the older S1 foliation in most places. Later S3 fabrics are present in many areas as well as S4 crenulations in …

Geologic and tectonic evolution of the Manzano Peak Quadrangle, central New Mexico
The Sandia and Manzano Mountains in central New Mexico are a N-S-striking, Precambrian-cored, uplift that forms the east flank of the Albuquerque Basin of the Rio Grande Rift. During the Paleoproterozoic, the Precambrian rocks exposed in the range were accreted onto the "southward" growing …

Prehistoric Roads of New Mexico: A Synthesis of GIS and Remote Sensing Techniques
… three different study areas of New Mexico; the Manzano Mountains, Chaco Canyon, and the Salinas Pueblos. A comprehensive methodology for predictive modeling of ancient road locations was created using multiple GIS and remote-sensing analyses on two previously identified prehistoric road study …

Proterozoic thermal and deformational history and geochemical evolution of the 1.4 Ga Priest pluton and its aureole
… The 1.43 Ga Priest pluton in the southern Manzano Mountains provides a key area for understanding middle crustal processes of regional aureole metamorphism and foliation reactivation and for deciphering the tectonic history of Proterozoic rocks in New Mexico. Because of its limited size (9 …
