Associated Societies Associated Societies GSA has a long tradition of collaborating with a wide range of partners in pursuit of our mutual goals to advance the geosciences, enhance the professional growth of society members, and promote the geosciences in the service of humanity. GSA works with other organizations on many programs and services. As the Society looks to the future, it aims to build strong, meaningful partnerships with societies and organizations across the country and around the world in service to members and the larger geoscience community.

  • The Aim of the Project Is to Carry out Integrated Studies of the Anambra
    Preliminary Integrated Hydrocarbon Prospectivity Evaluation of the Bida Basin in North Central Nigeria By N. G. Obaje1, D. O. Balogu1, A. Idris-Nda2, I. A. Goro2, S. I. Ibrahim1, M. K. Musa1, S. H. Dantata2, I. Yusuf1, N. Mamud-Dadi1, I. A. Kolo1+ Abstract The Bida Basin is a NW-SE trending intracratonic structure extending from slightly south of Kontagora in Niger State in the north to the area slightly beyond Lokoja (Kogi State) in the south. All geological maps available on the Bida Basin had lumped the sediments in the basin as one undifferentiated Nupe Sandstone, making it impossible to infer the prospectivity of the basin for hydrocarbon exploration. The delineation of inferred boundaries between the formations in the basin is a significant initial criterion in evaluating the hydrocarbon prospectivity. The formations deposited in the Bida Basin comprise the Bida Sandstone at the base, followed successively upward by the Sakpe, Enagi and Batati Formations in the Northern/Central Bida Basin while the Lokoja, Patti and Agbaja Formations constitute lateral equivalents in the Southern Bida Basin. An institutional research project of the Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida University Lapai (IBBUL), supported by the Niger State Government, has carried out preliminary geological mapping and completed a prospectivity map for the Bida Basin. Geochemical analysis of samples from drilled shallow wells (at Agaie and Kudu) and outcrops was also undertaken along with interpretation of geophysical aeromagnetic data. From the preliminary geological map prepared, prospective areas, ranked as Less Prospective, Prospective and More Prospective are discernable. Geochemical data show that mainly gas and some oil would have been generated within the Prospective and More Prospective sections in the basin.

  • Subsurface Facies Analysis of the Devonian Berea Sandstone in Southeastern Ohio
    SUBSURFACE FACIES ANALYSIS OF THE DEVONIAN BEREA SANDSTONE IN SOUTHEASTERN OHIO William T. Garnes A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE December 2014 Committee: James Evans, Advisor Jeffrey Snyder Charles Onasch ii ABSTRACT James Evans, Advisor The Devonian Berea Sandstone is an internally complex, heterogeneous unit that appears prominently both in outcrop and subsurface in Ohio. While the unit is clearly deltaic in outcrops in northeastern Ohio, its depositional setting is more problematic in southeastern Ohio where it is only found in the subsurface. The goal of this project was to search for evidence of a barrier island/inlet channel depositional environment for the Berea Sandstone to assess whether the Berea Sandstone was deposited under conditions in southeastern Ohio unique from northeastern Ohio. This project involved looking at cores from 5 wells: 3426 (Athens Co.), 3425 (Meigs Co.), 3253 (Athens Co.), 3252 (Athens Co.), and 3251 (Athens Co.) In cores, the Berea Sandstone ranges from 2 to 10 m (8-32 ft) thick, with an average thickness of 6.3 m (20.7 ft). Core descriptions involved hand specimens, thin section descriptions, and core photography. In addition to these 5 wells, the gamma ray logs from 13 wells were used to interpret the architecture and lithologies of the Berea Sandstone in Athens Co. and Meigs Co. as well as surrounding Vinton, Washington, and Morgan counties. Analysis from this study shows evidence of deltaic lobe progradation, abandonment, and re-working. Evidence of interdistributary bays with shallow sub-tidal environments, as well as large sand bodies, is also present.

  • Overview of the Strategic and Structural Evolution of the Talladega Slate Belt, Alabama Appalachians
    fl d029-08 1st pgs page 1 The Geological Society of America Field Guide 29 2012 Overview of the stratigraphic and structural evolution of the Talladega slate belt, Alabama Appalachians James F. Tull* Department of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Science, Florida State University Clinton I. Barineau* Department of Earth and Space Sciences, Columbus State University ABSTRACT The allochthonous Talladega belt of eastern-northeastern Alabama and north- western Georgia is a northeast striking, fault bounded block of lower greenschist facies metasedimentary and metaigneous rocks that formed along the margin of Lau- rentia at or outboard of the seaward edge of the Alabama promontory. Bounded by metamorphic rocks of the higher grade Neoproterozoic(?) to Carboniferous eastern Blue Ridge on the southeast and unmetamorphosed to anchimetamorphic Paleozoic rocks of the Appalachian foreland on the northwest, the Talladega belt includes shelf facies rocks of the latest Neoproterozoic/earliest Cambrian Kahatchee Mountain Group, Cambrian-Ordovician Sylacauga Marble Group, and the latest Silurian(?) to uppermost Devonian/earliest Mississippian Talladega Group. Along the southeast- ern fl ank of these metasedimentary sequences, a Middle Ordovician back-arc terrane (Hillabee Greenstone) was tectonically emplaced along a cryptic pre-metamorphic thrust fault (Hillabee thrust) and subsequently dismembered with units of the upper Talladega Group along the post-metamorphic Hollins Line fault system. Importantly, strata within the Talladega belt are critical for understanding the tectonic evolution of the southern Appalachian orogen when coupled with the geologic history of adjacent terranes. Rocks of the lower Talladega Group, the Lay Dam Formation, suggest latest Silurian-earliest Devonian tectonism that is only now being recognized in other areas of the southern Appalachians.
