Subsurface Sequence Stratigraphy and Reservoir Characterization of the Mississippian Limestone (Kinderhookian to Meramecian), South Central Kansas and North Central Oklahoma
<p>Both conventional and unconventional Mississippian reservoirs in the mid-continent are largely comprised of chert-rich carbonates of Osagean and Meramecan age. The conventional reservoir target is the Mississippian "chat," a high porosity, chert residuum interval found immediately beneath the …

Cementation and dolomitization of Mississippian limestones, Kentucky and Virginia
The Mississippian Newman Limestone (0-30 m thick) in eastern Kentucky contains pink-staining, aquifer-related cements (up to 750 ppm Mn+2); up to 1000 ppm Fe+2; δ¹⁸ -7.5 to -6.8 per mil; δ¹³C 1.7 to -6.8) that is non-luminescent (low Fe and Mn) in the recharge area, but becomes uniformly dully …

DEVELOPMENT OF THE ROCKY MOUNTAIN FORELAND BASIN: COMBINED STRUCTURAL, MINERALOGICAL, AND GEOCHEMICAL ANALYSIS OF BASIN EVOLUTION, ROCKY MOUNTAIN THRUST FRONT, NORTHWEST MONTANA
… at this locale. The unconformity separates Late Mississippian Madison Group carbonate (~340 Ma) from the transgressive basal sandstone of the Middle Jurassic (Bajocian-Bathonian) Sawtooth Formation (~170 Ma). Fieldwork established that northwest-trending, karst-widened fractures (grikes) are …

Subsurface Analysis of Mississippian Tripolitic Chert in Northwest Arkansas
<p>Over the past 70 years the Mississippian strata of Northwest Arkansas have been studied in great detail. The study area is located on the escarpment between the Boston Mountains Plateau and the Springfield Plateau where a surface occurrence of Mississippian age rock allows for access to outcrops …

An Investigation of 3D Seismic Deep Basement Events in Osage County, Oklahoma
… surveys. Hydrothermal minerals were observed in Mississippian age cores. The basement events where tracked using OpendTect with strike and dip measurements taken. Precambrian basement rock outcrops in Mays County near the town of Spavinaw, Oklahoma. Granite paleotopograhic highs (referred to as …
