Some states have higher minimum ages for selling spirits. Therefore, it’s important to know the law where you are. What is true in one state may not be true in the next. States vary widely in their alcohol laws. That is, in places where customers must take the alcohol elsewhere to consume it. Evidence is accumulating that the Holmes' time scale will have to be considerably lengthened.You’ll find here a summary of each state’s laws about the minimum age to sell alcohol in off-premises venues. The time of these orogenies is compared with those in the Central and Northern Appalachians. In the southeastern Piedmont of Georgia and South Carolina a younger metamorphic event or events can be detected producing rocks of apparent age ranging from 230 to 310 m.y. (Cranberry gneiss) over a distance of about 10 miles across the strike of the border- of the 350 m.y. In western North Carolina a transition of apparent ages from 355 to 890 m.y. There is strong evidence of an additional metamorphic epoch between 3 m.y., but its effects have been largely obliterated by the 350 m.y. with widespread recrystallization of existing rocks and intrusion of pegmatites in the Spruce Pine, Franklin-Sylva and Bryson City Districts, and granites in the Virginia more » and North Carolina Piedmont. Superimposed on this older metamorphic province was a major orogenic event culminating at about 350 m.y. Large portions of the area appear to have been metamorphosed initially approximately at the same time as the Grenville Province, i.e., about 900 to 1100 m.y. Potassium-argon and rubidium-strontium age measurements have been made on a variety of granites, pegmatites, gneiases and schists which comprise the plutonicmetamorphic complex of the Piedmont and Blue Ridge of the southeastern United States. Evidence for later stage F3 folding also exists. Pegmatite veins are folded by F2 indicating that they and similar igneous bodies likely predate F2 folding. These folds have an average trend of 112 and plunge of 53, with associated axial planar cleavage, S2, striking north and dipping moderately to the west.
Asymmetric, east vergent, F2 folds are abundant. This fold exposes inverted beds in the northwest limb and up-right beds in the southeast limb. The axial surface, S1, strikes north and dips moderately west. Field data and structural analysis indicate that an early macroscopic fold, F1, dominates the area and has an average trend of 325 and plunge of 25. The area has undergone three phases of deformation. This section has been sub-divided into ten members that collectively form the lower Devonian Littleton Formation. On top of the sequence lies a thick section of schists and quartzites of varying thicknesses and relative abundances.
Overlying this is the Silurian Madrid Formation, a well layered calc-silicate granofels. The Silurian Smalls Falls Formation, a rusty schist, highly susceptible to weathering, overlies the Rangeley Formation. In places it is highly migmitized due to the intrusion of the Glen Boulder more » granite in the southern section of the field area. The Silurian Rangeley Formation, the oldest unit, is a schist and quartzite which has been subdivided into two members based on the presence or absence of calc-silicate pods. Folding and associated metamorphism is thought to be related to the Acadian and Alleghanian( ) orogenics. These rocks are part of the cover sequence in the Central Maine Terrane of the northern Appalachians. « lessĭetailed mapping has been done of the polydeformed, lower sillimanite grade, Silurian and Devonian metasedimentary rocks in the southeast part of the Presidential Range, N.H. Paleozoic igneous activity in the southern Appalachians was less extensive compared with the voluminous Acadian plutonism of the northern Appalachians however, synkinematic to postkinematic Devonian plutons are present in the central and western parts of the orogen. The results of this study indicate that Acadian dynamothermal events extended into parts of the Laurentian margin in the southern Appalachians. Unlike the accreted nature of the Acadian terranes in the northern Appalachians, the Talladega belt appears to have been part of the early to middle Paleozoic cratonic margin of North America.
The timing of metamorphism in the Talladega belt is similar to the age of the Acadian orogeny in the Maritime and northern Appalachians. This age is interpreted to be the approximate time more » of regional greenschist facies metamorphism.
