Kehle, Ralph O.
Correspondence discussing the length of time required to move the Heart Mountain block 30 miles: Kehle asks if "catastrophic" means a few hundred to 1,000 years; Pierce suggests a few hours for emplacement.
Kellogg, Karl
Correspondence which negates fault movement due to high pore pressure for Heart Mountain fault, and supports earthquake oscillations combined with gravity as the mechanism of movement on Heart Mountain fault.
Krill, Allan
Correspondence with a Yale geologist whose senior thesis at Univ of Calif was on the Heart Mountain calcibreccia. One of his advisors suggested that perhaps there was a thin zone of interbedded evaporite and dolomite at the break point which provided lubrication for movement on the fault. Pierce counters emphatically that the zone is well-exposed where it is not faulted and has no evidence for evaporites. Krill refers to Pierce's heart problems in 1976 and wishes him improved health.
