The geology of the Schmidt and Williams hills differs from the geology of the main body of the Neptune Range in three significant ways (Schmidt and Ford 1969) ... 

The Patuxent Formation (redefined) in the Schmidt and Williams hills contains interbedded lava flows of pillow basalt and felsite (e.g., the Gorecki Felsite Member), whereas the Hannah Ridge Formation in... 

The Hannah Ridge Formation in the eastern Neptune Range is unconformably overlain by the fossilifer-ous Middle Cambrian Nelson Limestone followed by a succession of Paleozoic formations identified in Table 8.3. The Nelson Limestone and the overlying Paleozoic formations are not present in the Schmidt and Williams hills. 

Another way to determine the age of the Patuxent Formation is to date the felsic lava flows that are interbedded with the sedimentary rocks of the Patuxent Formation in the Schmidt and Williams hills. However, the Rb-Sr data for eight samples of felsic igneous rocks... 

Fig. 8.10 Felsic flows and intrusive plugs in the Patuxent Formation of the Schmidt and Williams hills scatter widely on the Rb-Sr geochronometry diagram. Nevertheless, Eastin (1970) fitted three lines to the date points labeled A, B, and C. The dates and the initial ( Sr/ Sr) ratios indicated by these lines are A 489 8 Ma, 0.7074 0.0002, B 465 2 Ma, 0.7171 0.0001, C 1184 76, 0.7052 0.0008...

The Patuxent Formation in the Schmidt and Williams hills (but not in the main body of the Neptune Range) contains voluminous basalt flows and diabase sills. These rocks provide yet another opportunity to date the time of deposition of the Patuxent Formation. Eastin (1970) analyzed six samples of diabase (Schmidt Hills) and four of basalt (Williams Hills) and attempted to use the results in Appendices 8.5.10 and 8.5.11 to date these rocks even though their low Rb/Sr ratios make them unfavorable for dating by the whole-rock Rb-Sr method. Four of the diabase samples originated from different levels within a 55-m thick sill on Mount Gorecki. 

Line A is constrained by the four samples of diabase derived from the sill on Gorecki Peak, whereas line B is based on only two samples. A third possible interpretation of the Rb-Sr data of these mafic rocks is based on what may be a fortuitous alignment of two diabase samples (419, 421) from the sill on Mount Gorecki in the Schmidt Hills and one basalt (415) from Nunatak 8 in the Williams Hills. These three samples closely constrain a straight line in Fig. 8.11 which yields a date of 542 3 Ma (Early Cambrian), and an initial ratio of 0.70688 0.000007 (la). We... 

Twenty two years after Eastin (1970) completed his work, Storey et al. (1992) were also unable to derive meaningful whole-rock Rb-Sr dates for felsites, mafic sills, and pillow basalts associated with the Patuxent Formation in the Schmidt and Williams hills. They expressed their conclusion succinctly by stating ... 

The U-Pb date of the Gorecki Felsite measured by Millar and Storey (1995) implies that the age of the pillow-basalt flows in the Schmidt and William hills is also Late Cambrian to Early Ordovician. Storey et al. (1992) previously proposed that these pillow basalts were erupted during an episode of the rifting of the continental crust during which the Thiel Mountains Porphyry and the basaltic rocks in the Ellsworth Mountains were also erupted (Section 8.1.6). According to Millar and Story (1995), the episode of extensional tectonics in the far-eastern sector of the Transantarctic Mountains may have been caused by the development of a back-arc basin in response to the active subduction... 

In the Schmidt Hills the turbidites of the Patuxant Formation contain diabase sills, pillow basalt, and fel-sic porphyry. In the Williams Hills the Patuxant Formation contains basalt flows and felsic porphyry, but diabase sills are absent. In spite of its close proximity to the Schmidt and Wilhams hills, the turbidite basement complex of the main body of the Neptune Range does not contain basaltic or felsic volcanic rocks. The difference has been attributed to the presence of a fault in the Roderick Valley that lies between the Neptune Range and the Schmidt and William hills and that may have moved these parts of the Pensacola Mountains closer together. 

In addition, the turbidite basement complex of the Neptune Range is unconformably overlain by the Middle Cambrian Nelson Limestone which is absent from the Schmidt and Williams hiUs. Therefore, the age of the turbidites that underlie the Nelson Limestone in the Neptune Range must be pre-Middle Cambrian , whereas the turbidites in the Schmidt and Williams Hills where the Nelson Limestone are absent are post-Middle Cambrian in age as confirmed by isotopic age determinations. This confusing situation was resolved...
