  • Geology Project Book 1: Beginner
    4H•ENV•101 Geology Project Book 1: Beginner Oklahoma Cooperative Extension Service Division of Agriculture Sciences and Natural Resources Oklahoma State University Oklahoma Energy Resources Board Geology Project Book 1—Beginner Oklahoma is a state that is geologically diverse and interesting. From the lava-covered mesas at the western tip of the panhandle to the Ouachita Mountains in southeastern corner of the state, the various landscapes make our state a unique place to live. The flatness or hilliness of our own backyard, neighborhood park or family farm are all related to geology. Geology plays a major role in many important aspects of our lives. From the fuels we use for transportation, farming, industry or heat, to the water we need for drinking and irrigation or the soils that sustain our agricultural industry, geologic resources are critical to our existence. The geology of Oklahoma is important to our economy. Oklahoma is a leading producer of natural gas and oil. Thousands of Oklahomans rely on the petroleum business for their livelihood. All citizens of our state benefit indirectly by the contributions that oil and natural gas companies and their employees make to education and the arts. The soils that provide the foundation of Oklahoma’s rich agriculture industry are related to the underlying bedrock. Our scenic resources are the result of the interaction of climate and geology over time. The rich rock resources of Oklahoma are mined or quarried to make building stone, cement, monuments and construction material. The purpose of the 4-H geology project is to increase our understanding of the natural world in which we live.

    Tenkiller Red Rock Canyon Roman Nose Alabaster Caverns Black Mesa Newspapers for this educational program provided by: Beavers Bend Lake Murray Introduction and Geologic Setting: Oklahoma is blessed with a wonderful geological heritage that benefits us in many ways. In addition to our petroleum, coal, and mineral resources, the state has a variety of exposed rocks that can be quarried for many uses, all of which are a huge boon to our economy. Oklahoma’s geology is internationally known because of these economic resources, and also because of the size and diversity of the many geologic features that are exposed and available for viewing around the state and in our 35 state parks. In the southern part of the state, many of these parks feature mountains that were formed and shaped by a variety of dynamic geologic processes. Other Oklahoma parks contain different kinds of geological wonders that include: the world’s largest natural gypsum cave that is open to the public at Alabaster Caverns State Park; an extinct volcano at Black Mesa State Park; and the rugged canyons of Roman Nose State Park.
