B. WILLMAN AND J. NORMAN PAYNE Illinois State Geological Survey ABSTRACT A nearly complete sequence of Ordovician strata along Fox River, southwest of Aurora, indicates the presence of the Kankakee arch—a major structure trending northwest-southeast across northeastern Illinois —and the probable location of the Sandwich fault, which parallels the arch for many miles and had been found previously by studies of well records. Outcrops of sandstone and dolomite which have long been corre- lated with the St. Peter and Galena-Platteville formations have been found to belong to the New Richmond sandstone and the Shakopee dolomite. Study of the outcrops and well records shows that the anticlinal struc- ture underwent major movements both before and after deposition of the St. Peter sandstone. INTRODUCTION subsurface data showed that this struc- ture, termed the "Kankakee arch," In the earliest geological studies of this (1) 2 had its greatest deformation before, rather area the sandstone and the dolomite out- than since, St.

M. Bristol and Ronald Prescott ABSTRACT The Tuscola Anticline, in east-central Illinois, lies astride the complex LaSalle Anticlinal Belt and dips steeply westward into the Fairfield Basin and gradually eastward into the Murdock Syncline. The anticline is broken into two structural highs, the Hayes Dome and the Shaw Dome. Pleistocene sediments, 50 to 250 feet thick, cover the area. Pennsylvanian sediments cover much of the area, thinning to expose an inlier of Mississippian, Devonian, and Silurian rock north of Tuscola. The basal Cambrian for- mation, the Mt. Simon Sandstone, is penetrated by only two wells. Oil production from the Kimmswick (Trenton) com- menced in 1962 from the R. D. Ernest No. 1 Schweighart well, near Hayes, and as of January 1, 1968, approximately 30 wells were producing oil. Cumulative oil production as of January 1, 1968, is approximately 94,000 barrels. The potential pay zone is confined to the upper 5 to 100 feet of structure and to the upper 125 feet of the Kimmswick, whose permeability ranges from 0.1 to 2. millidarcys, av- eraging 0.6, and whose porosity ranges from 2 to 12 per- cent.

Jacobs, compiler ABSTRACT St. Clair County lies in southwestern Illinois across the Mississippi River from St. Louis, Missouri . One-fifth of the total land surface of 673 square miles is on flood­ plains of the Mississippi and Kaskaskia Rivers and Silver Creek. The floodplains are underlain by as much as 120 feet of gravel, sand, silt, and clay. The remaining fo ur­ fifths of the land surface is on uplands that contain flat or dissected plains, low ridges and mound-shaped hills, about 20 square miles of strip mines , and an area of karst topog­ raphy. The uplands are underlain by as much as 75 feet of till and sand and gravel, and generally 12 to 3 0 feet of loess and related silt; however, near the Mississippi River bluffs there are more than 100 feet of loes s and related silt. These deposits have been redistributed into spoil piles in the strip mines. Ben<ilath these deposits or cropping out in places are gently sloping beds of limestone, shale, sand­ stone, siltstone, clay stone, and coal. Thinly layered, frac­ tured limestone underlies the area of karst topography. Mineral and water resources are abundant in the county . Limestone of the St.
