Geochemical Evolution of Eocene Lakes in the Nevada Hinterland of the North American Cordillera

Abstract Eocene strata of the Elko Formation record lacustrine deposition within the Nevada hinterland of the North American Cordillera. We present a detailed geochemical stratigraphy enabled by high‐sampling‐resolution geochronology from lacus trine limestone and interbedded volcanic rocks of the E...
