Stutzman will present the project at the joint meeting in Albuquerque, April 30 through May 2. Dr. Heins served as project advisor. The project involved compiling a geo-referenced database of hand samples, petrographic and geochemical data collected from Hells Canyon by Vallier over the last 40 years. The database currently contains information about 600 samples, including information about location and composition.
Users can query the database using any combination of attributes.
This project makes Lewis-Clark State College the principal repository in the world for primary geologic data about Hells Canyon.
