Show GEOLOGISTS TO VISIT MILFORD On October 14th and 15th the students and staffs of the Department De-partment of Geological and Geophysical Sciences, University Univer-sity of Utah and Utah Geological Geolog-ical Survey will have a field cor.ference and visit mines and points of geological interest around Milford. The trip is the third annual so-called chairman's field trip, an event initiated by Dr. Stan Ward, chairman of the Utah Geology Deptartment. The idea is to have the entire staff, including in-cluding non-geologists and the student body, have a significant signifi-cant trip in an unhurried, relaxed re-laxed atmosphere. Wives may accompany the geologists. Prior trips have been to the San Rafael Swell and the Western Grand Canyon. About 50 persons per-sons are expected to attend. Milford was selected for this trip not only on the basis of interesting geology, but also because of the historic aspects of mining and as an area with enough mineral potential that mining companies continuously have exploration program in the area. |
