Could anyone suggest any good sources for examples of geological cross sections? I have to draw a cross section of igneous metamorphic and sedimentary rocks where the igneous cuts through the others and my head is not responding to this at all! Many thanks

hi if you have a look at p i was going to do one like that. What do you think I would love to compare ideas

sorry i forgot to include the page number it is page 127 book 10

Since this is not my area of expertise, I searched Google under the key words "geological cross sections" to get these possible sources:

http://www.athro.com/geo/seframe.html
http://www.public.asu.edu/~jpbirk/eis_cu/sld011.htm
http://www.unr.edu/mines/mine-eng/presentations/MCB/sld005.htm
http://csmres.jmu.edu/geollab/vageol/vahist/Fracstru.html
http://pubs.usgs.gov/gip/dynamic/Vigil.html

I hope this helps. If not continue the search for other sources. In the future, you can find the information you desire more quickly, if you use appropriate key words to do your own search. Thanks for asking.

To find good sources for examples of geological cross sections, you can use a search engine like Google and enter keywords such as "geological cross sections" or "examples of geological cross sections." This will provide you with various websites and resources that offer examples and explanations of geological cross sections.

Some specific websites that may be helpful include:

1. "The Athro Limited - Earth Science Resources" website (http://www.athro.com/geo/seframe.html) offers a variety of resources related to geology, including geological cross sections.

2. "Arizona State University" website (http://www.public.asu.edu/~jpbirk/eis_cu/sld011.htm) provides slides that illustrate geological cross sections.

3. "James Madison University - Department of Geology and Environmental Science" website (http://www.csmres.jmu.edu/geollab/vageol/vahist/Fracstru.html) offers a virtual geology field trip with examples of cross sections.

4. "U.S. Geological Survey" website (http://pubs.usgs.gov/gip/dynamic/Vigil.html) provides a dynamic and interactive guide to understanding geological cross sections.

Additionally, consider using academic journals, textbooks, and other educational resources on geology. Libraries and online databases like JSTOR and GeoScienceWorld can provide access to relevant articles and publications. Check with your school or university library to see if they have any geology textbooks or databases available.

Remember, using specific keywords and phrases in your search will help you find more relevant and specific results. Good luck with your research on drawing the cross section, and feel free to compare ideas and seek further guidance from your peers and instructors.
