Ohio Range

The Ohio Range is located about 55 km northeast of the Long Hills and forms the most easterly part of the Horlick Mountains. The topographic map in Fig. 7.21

Work continued in 1960-1963 in the Ohio Range (formerly called the Central Range of the Horlick Mountains) to procure coal for accurate analysis. Samples of outcrop coal and one excellent sample of coal from an adit opened in one bed were collected. Coal samples were taken in 1959 by John J. Mulligan (31) at Mount Gran in the vicinity of Frank Debenham and McKenzie Taylor s old Mount Suess locality. The following season Mulligan (32) sampled coal farther inland in the Willett Range. Brown and Taylor (6) published an analytic report on coal from the Theron Mountains in 1961.

The Antarctic coal samples are reportedly of Permian age and were collected in 1957 as part of the Antarctic exploration program of the Ohio State University Institute of Polar Studies. The bulk of the samples are from two localities shown in Figure 1 (1) the Terrace Ridge in the Ohio Range of the Horlick Mountains, and (2) Mount Gran in the Granite Harbour area of South Victoria Land. In each instance the coals were sampled from each of the accessible coal seams in the stratigraphic sequence exposed. Thus, these sam-... 

The 36 Antarctic coal samples were analyzed chemically (proximate and ultimate analyses) at the U. S. Bureau of Mines in Pittsburgh. The results of these analyses accompanied the samples when received from J. M. Schopf. The samples were collected by W. E. Long in the Ohio Range on NSF grant...

The porphyritic facies is composed of quartz monzo-nite which contains euhedral phenocrysts of pink micro-cline. The phenocrysts are 2-3 cm in length. This facies occurs on Mt. Brecher and ML LeSchack as well as along the eastern part of the north-facing escarpment of the Wisconsin Plateau and is similar to the granitic basanent rocks in the Ohio Range described by Treves (1965).
