Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book employs chemical fingerprinting to correlate widespread Ordovician K-bentonite beds in the Mississippi Valley. The author analyzed 26 elements in samples from 63 outcrops and 4 cores to identify unique chemical signatures for four distinct beds: Deicke, Millbrig, Elkport, and Dickeyville. These signatures reflect differences in the original composition of the volcanic ash from which the beds formed. The Deicke and Millbrig beds have been traced over 900 km, and the Elkport and Dickeyville are chemically identifiable in the northern outcrop area. The book provides a valuable tool for correlating these beds over long distances and sheds light on the complex facies relationships and lateral gradations within the Decorah Subgroup. This geochemical approach is a significant contribution to the understanding of Ordovician stratigraphy and the volcanic history of the Appalachian mobile belt.
