OSTI ID:5924398
A depositional model is proposed for the freshwater limestones of the upper Allegheny Group of western Pennsylvania, specifically the Upper Freeport limestone. The model is based on a facies sequence analysis of core logs through the limestone-bearing interval, on isopachs of limestone and sandstone of the same coal-to-coal interval, and on microfacies analysis of the limestone itself.
