Excerpt: ...as distinct stratigraphic units in Kansas. The fauna of the Wabaunsee formation is distinguished by the introduction of fossils which are closely related to the succeeding Permian period. Indeed, the transition from the upper beds here included in the Wabaunsee into the lower part of the Permian is so gradual that there is lack of agreement as to the precise line of division. Edmondia aspenwallensis, Hustedia mormoni, Derbya crassa, Chonetes granulifer, Fusvlina and a number of other fossils are extremely common in parts of the formation. Some of the limestones and shales contain a very interesting and abundant molluscan fauna. Certain beds are almost wholly made up of Fusulina. One of them, the Americus limestone, weathers readily and the loose shells of this little form may be scooped up in almost any quantity. 80. Prosser, Chas.

Burlingame limestone member.'2 At the base of the Wabaunsee is the persistent Burlingame limestone, 7 to 12 feet in thickness, composed of two main limestone layers, yellow or brown in color, separated by shale. It is a massive ledge which forms a prominent escarpment readily traced across the state. Willard shale member.' The Willard shale is a rather thin member immediately above the Burlingame limestone, composed of blue and yellow shale, with a small amount of friable limestone. Its thickness in Lyon county, where it is typically developed, is about 45 or 55 feet. Emporia limestone member.84 Above the shale thus defined is about 9...

Download or read book Clays Muds and Shales written by C.E. Weaver and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1989-11-10 with total page 837 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive and critical summary of clay mineral literature that relates to geology and geologic processes, making it useful both as a reference book for geologists and as a text for the specialist. The book encompasses the full scope of clay-shale geology. An introductory chapter provides basic background terminology and classification. This is followed by a relatively long chapter on the structure and composition of the various clay minerals. Chapter 3 provides an introduction to soil formation, chemical weathering, microbial alteration and the pedogenic formation of clay minerals. Chapters 4 and 5 cover the continental and marine transport, and deposition of clays. Both mechanisms and examples are presented, ranging from biodepositional to the nepheloid layer. Chapter 6 reviews data on the low to high temperature formation of clay minerals from marine volcanics, and the growth of authigenic clays in shallow marine, brackish, and evaporite environments. Chapter 7, Diagenesis Metamorphism, covers both burial diagenesis and the processes occurring during the conversion of shale to clay. Chapter 8 discusses the formation of authigenic-diagenetic formation of clays in sandstones. Chapter 9 describes the temperal distribution of clay minerals in North and South America, Europe, Africa and the Atlantic Ocean. The clay suites are related to factors such as continental drift, tectonics, climate and environment. The final brief chapter covers compaction, lithification and some general features of shales. The book is liberally sprinkled with x-ray patterns, chemical analyses, and SEM and TEM pictures, in addition to hundreds of examples.
