Central Montana Alkalic Province

The central Montana Alkalic Province is located in the United States in central Montana. Montana is bordered by Idaho, Wyoming, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Canada to the north. Central Montana is unique when compared to the rest of the Rocky Mountains due to its' east-west trend of tectonic features including thrust fault zones, anticlines, and domes. The area of tectonic activity experienced conditions of plastic deformation affecting the whole region. The Montana Alkalic Province consist of Cretaceous intrusions of monzonite and syenite as well as Cambrian limestone, sandstone, and siltstone. Most of the sedimentary rocks are a result of deposition from a terrestrial fluvial environment. Deposition included more than 13,000 feet of clastics that was later uplifted. The peak of this
