1) What do you think the swirls are? 2) How were the swirls created (starting with loose sediments and ending with solid rock with swirls)? 3) Compare and contrast the rocks you observed at the gravel pit by June’s Place with the rocks at this site (the creek- station 2: swirls). (a) After observing some of the rocks at the gravel pit and the rock here at Station 2, do you think the sediment at the gravel pit is transported or residual? (See Definitions) (b) Support your answer: Where is the overburden at the creek - station 2 (swirls)? Explain your answer. 6) (a) Which site, the gravel pit at June’s Place or the swirls by the creek is older? (b) Explain how you infer this: 7) (a) What is the name for the long cracks in the bedrock at this site (swirls)? 3
(b) Suggest how these cracks were formed: 8) View this document and use page 7 on the Earth Science Reference Tables- (a) Suggest a possible rock group, subgroup, and name for the bedrock at the creek - station 2 (example: metamorphic, foliated, gneiss): (b) Why did you choose that type (hint: look at grain size or texture)? 4
