This book was released on 2016 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pennsylvanian Hartshorne Sandstone crops out in an east trending belt across central Arkansas immediately north of the Ouachita orogenic belt and south of the Boston Mountains. The unit, composed of massive to cross bedded sandstone ranging to 150m in thickness, was deposited by a west-flowing river system that extended from central Arkansas to southeastern Oklahoma. The source of the sediment has been extensively discussed but not completely established. The object of this thesis is to constrain the source area and terrain based on thin section mineralogy and texture. Thin sections were prepared from outcrops in the Arkoma Basin and were selected from a collection of 45 thin sections for analysis utilizing a petrographic microscope and petrographic analytical techniques. The Hartshorne Sandstone is composed of quartzose phyllarenite with small amounts amounts of plagioclase and orthoclase feldspar in addition to accessory minerals including zircon, tourmaline and muscovite. Metamorphic rock fragments composed of phyllite dominate the lithic components, schist fragments occur but are rare. The uplands north of the Arkoma basin are uniformly composed of sandstone composed of quartzarenite interbedded with shale and limestone. Metamorphic rock fragments are rare or absent. Sandstones that compose the Stanley Formation (Mississippian) and the Atoka Formation (Pennsylvanian) of the frontal Ouachita Mountains contain abundant lithic fragments (Atoka) and feldspar (Stanley). The lithic composition of the Stanley and the Atoka is consistent with the lithic composition of the Hartshorne. This suggests that the Hartshorne sediments were sourced from adjacent exposures of the Stanley and Atoka formations south of the Arkoma Basin and that early uplift of the Frontal Ouachitas were instrumental in confining the Hartshorne River system to a westward direction across the incipient Arkoma Basin early in Pennsylvanian time.

Book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences

Download or read book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences written by W. H. Shafer and published by Springer. This book was released on 1982-02-01 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and dis seminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) * at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the ac tivity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all concerned if the printing and distribution of the volume were handled by an international publishing. house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Corporation of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 25 (thesis year 1980) a total of 10,308 theses titles from 27 Canadian and 214 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for theses titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work. While Volume 25 reports theses submitted in 1980, on occasion, certain universities do report theses submitted in previous years but not reported at the time.

Book Stratigraphy and Depositional Characterization of the Moorefield Shale  Middle Late Mississippian  in Its Type Area  Northeastern Arkansas  Eastern Arkoma Basin

Download or read book Stratigraphy and Depositional Characterization of the Moorefield Shale Middle Late Mississippian in Its Type Area Northeastern Arkansas Eastern Arkoma Basin written by Griffin William Warner and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Moorefield Shale represents the Meramecian Series in the Eastern Arkoma Basin in northern Arkansas. Lying on the margin of the Mississippi Embayment and Reelfoot Rift, sequence stratigraphic interpretations have labelled the Moorefield Shale a lowstand wedge succeeding the Early Mississippian (Osagean) Boone Limestone conformably and overlain conformably by the Hindsville Limestone/Batesville Sandstone. The unit contains a basal brown-black limestone and succeeding brown-black phosphatic shale. The Moorefield Shale was deposited along the broad, stable cratonic platform on the southern flank of Laurasia, before it's collision with Gondwanaland to form the supercontinent Pangea at the end of the Paleozoic. During this time, the midcontinent region was covered by shallow seas and carbonates covered most of the region. A shallowly dipping carbonate ramp developed in the region providing a foundation for clastic sediment deposition. The Boone Limestone underlies the Moorefield Shale throughout the eastern Arkoma Region however, the Boone carbonate sediment was transported from its origin on the Burlington Shelf in the northwestern part of Arkansas, and thicknesses of the Boone Limestone significantly decrease to the south and east. Thinning of the Boone Limestone has allowed greater accommodation space for succeeding formations in the eastern Arkoma Basin, and has allowed the Moorefield Shale to be considerably thicker in the east. Thicknesses of the Moorefield Shale measure to approximately 100 feet in outcrop, and 350 feet or greater in the subsurface. Due to the lack of research, the Moorefield Shale offers a unique perspective into the stratigraphy and deposition of Mississippian units of the eastern Arkoma Basin.
