The Nevada Group is an abandoned term for a geologic group in Nevada. The group, reflected a collection of rocks then thought to preserve fossils dating back to the Devonian period.[1]
The term was abandoned as a geologic unit because it is "a collection of distinctive rock units deposited in variety of depositional environments."[2]
