Major stratigraphic trends in Castlemar
Conemagh:
Presence of marine zone between
Brush Creek and Lower Bakers town.
Occurs locally above Buffalo
sands tone.
Development.
Max. = Coal (thin) overlain by marine
shale (fossils) and underlain
by calcareous underclay.
A considerable thickening of the
L.B. - B.C. interval accompanies the
occurrence - also peripheral
zone marked by
1. Increased L.B.-BC interval
2. Limey clays of underclay type
at about 68% 65' above B.C.
Further from holes with marine zone
LB-BC interval decreases and
red bed - often with calc.
nodules, comes in at the horizon.
