Sweetkind DS, Fridrich CJ, Taylor E. 2001. Facies Analysis of Tertiary Basin-Filling Rocks of the Death Valley Regional Ground-Water System and Surrounding Areas, Nevada and California. U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Open-File Report. 01-400. U.S. Department of the Interior, U.S. Geological Survey
Initial synthesis of existing and new surface and subsurface data on the lithologic variations between and within the Cenozoic basin fills of the Death Valley region. Contains a categorization of the Cenozoic basins of Death Valley region according to the predominant lithologies in the different basin fills and presents qualitative constraints on the hydrologic properties of these major lithologic categories.
