Neoproterozoic
mafic dike exposed at Mount Moran, Teton Range, Wyoming. Based on paleomagnetism and 40Ar/39Ar
geochronology, the dike is considered to be part of the 780 Ma Gunbarrel mafic magmatic event.
At the top of Mount Moran, the dike is nonconformably
overlain by the Cambrian Flathead Sandstone. (Photograph by Stephen S. Harlan)
