The Pintail coal bed and barrier bar G

OSTI ID:6778274
Barrier bar G and the Pintail coal bed are in the Almond Formation and were deposited near the head of a shallow marine embayment that was located along the western shores of the Late Cretaceous epeiric sea. A barrier-lagoon, coal-forming model has been developed from the depositional history of barrier bar G and the Pintail coal bed. The model demonstrates that the barrier and its lagoon evolved through saltwater to brackish-water to freshwater stages.
