Biography
Mark W. Carter has been a professional geologist since 1996. Mark's expertise is geologic mapping throughout the southern Appalachian crystalline core. He has produced geologic maps and reports in three states (Tennessee, North Carolina, and Virginia) and from four geologic provinces (Valley and Ridge, Blue Ridge, Piedmont, Coastal Plain). As a USGS Research Geologist, he is currently co-project chief of the National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program Piedmont and Blue Ridge Project. Mark is mapping in southeastern Virginia for critical mineral framework studies, and in northwestern North Carolina for earthquake hazards.
Greetings, and welcome to the May 11, 2026 ETGS
virtual meeting.
This meeting will be attended via Zoom and as a courtesy please mute your cell phone or the microphone in your laptop/tablet to minimize background noise and feedback echos. We will also make an effort to mute all participants - at least until the presentation is finished. Please use the chat feature to type any comments or questions you may have. We recommend that you send questions for the speaker to "everyone" so all participants can see the question. In the interest of time, we may hold the Q&A at the end of the presentation.
We will create a virtual attendance list. It is not always possible
to tell who is participating on-line, especially for those joining by phone,
so please email
etgs@live.com
to be listed on the attendance sheet. Let us know exactly how your
name should appear on the list. We will add a note explaining the
lack of signatures due to remote participation and have an ETGS officer sign as usual.
Thank you for your patience and understanding as we continue with this online
format. As always, we welcome and appreciate your feedback and
suggestions for improvement.
