This book was released on 2011 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The detailed sequence stratigraphy of lower and middle Mississippian rocks in southwestern Missouri is poorly known; previous stratigraphic studies primarily have focused on biostratigraphy, lithostratigraphy, and depositional environments. Field studies of new road cuts along highways 13, 65, 71, and private roads provide additional exposures that allow for an interpretive sequence-stratigraphy model that can be correlated from mid-ramp to platform and inner-shelf settings in a southwest-northeast transect. A sequence boundary at the base of the Bachelor Formation rests with angular unconformity on upper Devonian Shale in southwesternmost Missouri and, elsewhere, cuts out lower Ordovician carbonates. An upper sequence boundary is recognized, where the upper Mississippian Hindsville Formation uncomformably overlies the middle Mississippian Keokuk Limestone. Between these sequence boundaries are other sequence boundaries. The Compton Limestone records relative sea-level deepening. It is truncated locally with low-angle discordance below the Northview Formation, a mixed shale and siltstone succession. The Northview accumulated in a near-shore setting and prograded across the platform and middle ramp. The overlying Pierson Formation records relative deepening, and the top of the unit is truncated at the base of the Reeds Spring Formation, where interbedded lime mudstone and chert record marked deepening. In contrast, the overlying Elsey and Burlington-Keokuk formations record shoaling. The mechanism for sea-level change remains uncertain, but tectonism provides a possible explanation for truncation of stratigraphic units at the base and top of this interval.

This book was released on 1970 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The St. Louis Limestone of the Upper Meramecian Series, Mississippian System, is typically lithographic, light-to light-olive gray in color, dense, and fractures conchoidally. It is brecciated, especially in the lower part, and contains some chert nodules. Oolites are present close to the top of the formation. The Salem-St. Louis contact is placed at the base of the lowest breccia zone and the top of Salem is characterized by crystalline quartz and abundance of chert nodules. The appearance of typical Ste. Genevieve oolites with sand-size quartz grains indicates the St. Louis-Ste. Genevieve contact. The St. Louis Limestone is characterized by dominance of fine-grained texture (micritic) with fossil fragments and minor spar. Foraminifers and bryozoans are the main fossil constituents followed by algae, crinoid fragments and corals. Of the corals, Lithostrotionella and Lithostrotion are significant but of less obvious correlative value. Brachiopods and gastropods are present but to a lesser extent. The formation has about 3 to 5 percent insoluble residues (except close to the boundaries), consisting mostly of quartz. The degree of dolomitization is widely variable from one section to another. The St. Louis Limestone is high in CaD content except in the dolomitized zones. The explanation of the origin of brecciation in the St. Louis Limestone presents some difficulty. The St. Louis Limestone is tentatively subdivided into three units. The deposition of limestone was continuous from Salem through St. Louis time under quiet and shallow water environments. In the study area, the St. Louis Limestone is used for cement manufacture and road construction"--Abstract, leaf ii.
