OAHE FORMATION
Sand, silt, and clay depos ited by modern streams and rivers. Gravellywhere derived from coarse, older alluvial deposits . Includes river channeland floodplain sediments. Contains numerous truncated meanders andminor terraces. Local similarity to the Sentinel Butte Formation makesthickness determinations difficult; generally less than 20 feet thick.
Modern Alluvial DepositsQa1
RECENT/PLEISTOCENE
Poorly sorted sand, silt, clay, and gravel. Forms planar terrace deposits,elevated relative to modern streams, that are dissected by modern alluvialdeposits. Fluvial (channel and floodplain) sediment generally less than 30feet thick.
Alluvial DepositsQa2
PALEOCENEFORT UNION GROUP
Gray to brown, variably lithified siltstone, mudstone, claystone, sandstone,and lignite. Calcite-cemented sandstone and mudstone concretions arecommon, as are siderite nodules. In this area, the contact with the GoldenValley Formation appears conformable and gradational. Fluvial, lacustrine,and swamp sediment that form gentle, vegetated slopes. Only the upper200 feet of the formation is exposed.
SENTINEL BUTTE FORMATIONTsb
TERTIARY SYSTEMEOCENE/PALEOCENE
Yellowish brown, micaceous, illitic and montmorillonitic siltstone,claystone, and sandstone.
Camels Butte Member
Bear Den MemberLight gray to bright white kaolinitic strata often divisible into 3 strati-graphic units: basal gray zone, middle orange zone, and a thin uppercarbonaceous zone. Often capped by a silicious bed (Taylor Bed) in this area.
GOLDEN VALLEY FORMATIONTgv
Poorly sorted, iron stained, locally iron cemented sand and gravel. Containspebbles and cobbles of locally derived material (mudstone, sandstone,concretions, silicified wood, flint, silcrete, chalcedony), recycled glacialerratics, and lesser quartzite and porphyry (derived from the Black Hillsor Rocky Mountains). Occasional small to medium boulders or localsandstone and mudstone. Occurs as esker-like ridges, a veneer thatcaps hilltops, and deeply eroded deposits with no distinctive topographicexpression. Fluvial (channel) sediment up to 60 feet thick.

EXPLANATIONQUATERNARY SYSTEM
RECENTManmade Features or Deposits
Fill used to create level building sites, reclaim mined land and to builddams, retaining ponds, and other structures. Consists of engineered fill,construction and demolition debris, and general borrow material. Althoughonly selected deposits have been mapped, fill should be anticipated inall built-up areas.
Artificial DepositsQf
Engineered landfill deposits and common dumps.
