Analysis of Tripolitic Chert in the Boone Formation (Lower Mississippian, Osagean), Northwest Arkansas and Southwestern Missouri
<p>The Boone Formation in northwest Arkansas and southwestern Missouri exposes a nearly complete sequence of Lower Mississippian chert-bearing carbonates deposited by a single 3rd order transgression and regression. An abundant amount of chert that has replaced limestone highlights the Boone, but …

Porosity Development Within Lobes to Downslope Ramp Deposits on a Prograding Carbonate Shelf of the Kinderhookian to Osagean Series in Northwest Arkansas
… lobate geometries form a substantial part of the Osagean (early Mississippian) section in northwest Arkansas. The purpose of this study is to isolate and describe a single lobe from three-dimensional exposures in quarry walls to provide criteria by which lobe and lobe porosity can be recognized in …

Subsurface Sequence Stratigraphy and Reservoir Characterization of the Mississippian Limestone (Kinderhookian to Meramecian), South Central Kansas and North Central Oklahoma
… 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 Mississippian-Pennsylvanian unconformity. The unconventional reservoir target occurs in …

Depositional cycles and coral distribution, Mission Canyon and Charles Formations, Madison Group (Mississippian), Williston Basin, North Dakota
… interval is late Kinderhookian to early Osagean in age, the Tilston interval is middle Osagean, the Frobisher-Alida is late Osagean to early Meramecian, and the Ratcliffe is early Meramecian.</p>

Subsurface Analysis of Mississippian Tripolitic Chert in Northwest Arkansas
… expose Lower Mississippian (Kinderhookian-Osagean) strata that represent a full third order transgressive/regressive sequence that is unconformity bounded. These Mississippian outcrops are commonly treated as surface analogs to the Mississippi Lime Play in North Central Oklahoma. This …

Stratigraphy and Depositional Characterization of the Moorefield Shale (Middle-Late Mississippian) in its Type Area, Northeastern Arkansas (Eastern Arkoma Basin)
… 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 …

Paleontology and Paleoecology of the Nada Member of the Borden Formation (Lower Mississippian) in Eastern Kentucky
… study bears out that the Nada Member is middle Osagean in age, and again, confirms the westward progradation of the Borden delta. The Nada Member represents the very distal part of the subaqueous delta platform, and it was more controlled by marine processes than by terrestrial influences. The …
