KARIG Department of Geological Sciences 2124 Snee Hall Cornell University Ithaca, NY 14850 L.T. ELKINS Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences Massachusetts Institute of Technology Cambridge , MA 02139 INTRODUCTION No general summary of the geology in the region around Ithaca and Cornell University has appeared since that in the N.Y. Geol. Assoc . Guide ­ book of 1959 . Not only has much information been gathered since that time but also the geological emphasis has shifted. Earlier studies stress the geomorphic and paleontologic aspects of the area, whereas more recent attention has been toward the physical stratigraphy , environments of deposition and tectonic evolution of the region. In addition, geophysical studies and deep drill holes have greatly expanded our knowledge of the subsurface geology and deep crustal conditions . This chapter, therefore , is designed to synthesize the geologic information pertaining to the Cayuga region, emphasizing that material collected since 1959 , and is oriented toward physical stratigraphy , tec­ tonics and geophysics . The summary aspect of this paper precludes much detail , but extensive referencing in this and the following papers will enable the reader to pursue topics in greater depth. GEOLOGIC AND TECTONIC SETTING The Cayuga region (Fig. 1) is physiographically part of the Appalachian Plateau Province, which forms the cratonic flank of the foreland to the Alleghanian collision zone (Engelder, 1979b) . In north central Pennsyl­ vania the foreland fold and thrust belt trends nearly east west, as do the related structures on the foreland in central New York (Wedel, 1932 ; Engelder and Geiser, 1980) . This obliquity with the general northeasterly trend of the Alleghanian collision zone marks the northern flank of a large salient in the structural front , which is in part related to the distribution of the Silurian salt (Davis and Engelder , 1985) . There is , however , a similar salient in the internal part of the collision belt, wh ich suggests that initial passive margin configuration (e.g. , Rankin, 1976) and/or collision complexities were in large part responsible . The Cayuga region has lain well within a continental interior during all of Phanerozoic time, yet close enough to the continental margin to show subtle effects of more pronounced tectonic events that shaped that margin from the late Precambrian into the Mesozoic (Colton, 1970; Engelder and Geiser , 1980) . Thus the stratigraphy of this area bears witness to the formation of a passive continental margin dur ing the late Precamb rian 2 and Cambrian, the Taconic collision in the Ordovician, and the more enig­ matic Acadian event of the mid to late Devonian age (Ettensohn , 1985; Bradley , 1983) . Although younger sediments have since been eroded from the region, its structural framework is basically a result of the Alle­ gh anian collision . The sum of these processes has produced gently south­ ward tilted and thickening pile of strata (Rickard , 1973) , but within that pile are sharply varying trends reflecting earlier events . These trends , primarily in the subsurface, have been delineated by regional strati­ graphic and geophysical studies . GEOPHYSICAL STUDIES Regional gravity and magnetic data provide a primary source of informa­ tion concerning the depth and character of Precamb rian basement in south central New York . Sparse heat flow, seismologic , and electromagnetic studies give further insights into the deep crust and its behavior . A moderate number of seismic reflection profiles have been run in the Cayuga region, wh ich should clarify structural and stratigraphic relations within the sedimentary column, but none of these have been released for public use . Gravity The Bouguer gravity field in New York State (Revetta and Diment , 1971) west of the Taconic zone basically reflects the depth to and density variations of the Precambrian basement . In central New York a very gen­ eral southward decrease in the gravity field is associated with the 15 m/km southward dip of the basement surface (Hodge et al ., 1982 ; Rickard, 1973) . Superimposed on this gradient are sub-circular to more linear NNE trending anomalies . The character of the anomaly field changes markedly across a zone of steep , easterly decreasing gradients that trends NNEerly just west of Rochester (here referred to as the Clarendon-Linden grad­ ient) . To the east and including the Cayuga region, anomalies have lower amplitudes (10-15 mgal) and longer wavelengths than to the west. The eastward decrease in dens ity, smoother field, and more circular anomalies have been interpreted as reflecting less mafic Precamb rian rocks to the east, which have been intruded by both mafic and silicic plutons (Hodge et al ., 1982) . Magnetics i The total fiel� aeromagnetic map s of western New York (e.g. , Zietz and Gilbert , 1981) show a good correspondence to the gravity field (Hodge et l . al ., 1982) . Thus the magnetic field east of the Clarendon-Linden gradient is more subdued than that to the west. In both areas most magnetic highs correlate with gravity highs and are attributed to mafic intrusions or amphibolites (Hodge et al ., 1982) . Lows in both fields reflect granitic or anorthositic bodies. A larger [ � ENE- trending gravity and magnetic low south of Ithaca may imply a syenitic l to anorthositic mass in the Precambrian (Sneddon, 1983) . f l . l . 't 3 Heat Flow Heat flow measurements in New York show approximately normal values for stable continental crust (50-60 mwfm2) but the few measurements in the Cayuga region are significantly higher (65-94 mw/m2) (Hodge et al . , 1982) . In general higher heat flow is attributed to the higher radiogenic content of underlying granitic masses . Variations in temperature gradients differ from those of heat flow because thermal conductivities are a function of lithology. A compilation of temperature gradients in the upper 1 km (Hodge et al ., 1982) show east­ west trends reflecting surface lithology , but also define a N-S trending band of high gradients near 76' 40 'W longitude . Near Auburn , values rise to near 40'C/km, · which provided the basis for the drilling of 2 geothermal wells (Hickman et al ., 1985) . Seismicity Although several regions in New York show significant seismic activity (Sykes , 1978 ; Nottis, 1983) , central New York , and in particular that region east of the Clarendon- Linden gradient has been almost aseismic during historic time . This lack of seismicity correlates well with the other geophysical fields in outlining maj or subdivisions of the Precam­ brian basement in New York (Zoback and Zoback , 1980) . PHYSICAL STRATIGRAPHY AND DEPOSITIONAL SETTINGS Emphasis in previous guidebooks on the Cayuga region has been placed on the description of the exposed Middle and Upper Devonian section. Beneath these strata, however, are over 2 km of older, Cambrian to Devonian strata that overlie a much older Precambrian basement .

  • Fractured Shale Gas Potential in New York
    FRACTURED SHALE GAS POTENTIAL IN NEW YORK David G. HILL and Tracy E. LOMBARDI TICORA Geosciences, Inc., Arvada, Colorado, USA John P. MARTIN New York State Energy Research and Development Authority, Albany, New York, USA ABSTRACT In 1821, a shallow well drilled in the Devonian age shale ushered in a new era for the United States when natural gas was produced, transported and sold to local establishments in the town of Fredonia, New York. Following this discovery, hundreds of shallow shale wells were drilled along the Lake Erie shoreline and eventually several shale gas fields were established southeastward from the lake in the late 1800’s. Since the mid 1900’s, approximately 100 wells have been drilled in New York to test the fractured shale potential of the Devonian and Silurian age shales. With so few wells drilled over the past century, the true potential of fractured shale reservoirs has not been thoroughly assessed, and there may be a substantial resource. While the resource for shale gas in New York is large, ranging from 163-313 trillion cubic feet (Tcf) and the history of production dates back over 180 years, it has not been a major contributor to natural gas production in New York. A review of the history and research conducted on the shales shows that the resource in New York is poorly understood and has not been adequately tested. Other shales such as the Silurian and Ordovician Utica Shale may also hold promise as new commercial shale gas reservoirs. Experience developing shale gas plays in the past 20 years has demonstrated that every shale play is unique.

Key words — Bivalvia, Rhenish Facies, Nocedo Formation, Frasnian, Cantabrian Mountains, Iberia, Wilhelm Kegel. During a field trip to the Peña-Corada Unit of the southernmost Esla region of the Cantabrian Moun- tains in 1927, the German stratigrapher Wilhelm Kegel sampled brachiopods and bivalves from a section in the Laoz valley near La Ercina. The stratigraphic position is believed to be part of the No- cedo Formation of Frasnian age. This fauna includes poorly preserved steinkerns of a near-shore bi- valve fauna that was prepared for publication including labels and proposed names, but never pub- lished. The fauna represents only a very small and random part of the former community. But as in- formation on Frasnian bivalves is scarce, the few specimens add important information on the distri- bution and palaeogeographic occurrence of near-shore, that is, Rhenish Facies bivalves within the south Laurussian – Rheic Ocean Realm.

  • Upper Devonian Depositional and Biotic Events in Western New York
    MIDDLE- UPPER DEVONIAN DEPOSITIONAL AND BIOTIC EVENTS IN WESTERN NEW YORK Gordon C. Baird, Dept. of Geosciences, SUNY-Fredonia, Fredonia, NY 14063; D. Jeffrey Over, Dept. of Geological Sciences, SUNY-Geneseo, Geneseo, NY 14454; William T. Kirch gasser, Dept. of Geology, SUNY-Potsdam, Potsdam, NY 13676; Carlton E. Brett, Dept. of Geology, Univ. of Cincinnati, 500 Geology/Physics Bldg., Cincinnati, OH 45221 INTRODUCTION The Middle and Late Devonian succession in the Buffalo area includes numerous dark gray and black shale units recording dysoxic to near anoxic marine substrate conditions near the northern margin of the subsiding Appalachian foreland basin. Contrary to common perception, this basin was often not stagnant; evidence of current activity and episodic oxygenation events are characteristic of many units. In fact, lag deposits of detrital pyrite roofed by black shale, erosional runnels, and cross stratified deposits of tractional styliolinid grainstone present a counter intuitive image of episodic, moderate to high energy events within the basin. We will discuss current-generated features observed at field stops in the context of proposed models for their genesis, and we will also examine several key Late Devonian bioevents recorded in the Upper Devonian stratigraphic succession. In particular, two stops will showcase strata associated with key Late Devonian extinction events including the Frasnian-Famennian global crisis.

Box 821, Cody, WY 82414 ____________________ ABSTRACT - Paleontological resources occur throughout the Paleozoic and Mesozoic formations exposed in Bighorn Canyon National Recreation Area. Isolated research on specific geologic units within Bighorn Canyon has yielded data on a wide diversity of fossil forms. A comprehensive paleonotological survey has not been previously undertaken at Bighorn Canyon. Preliminary paleontologic resource data is presented in this report as an effort to establish baseline data. ____________________ INTRODUCTION ighorn Canyon National Recreation Area (BICA) consists of approximately 120,000 acres within the Bighorn Mountains of north-central Wyoming and south-central Montana B (Figure 1). The northwestern trending Bighorn Mountains consist of over 9,000 feet of sedimentary rock. The predominantly marine and near shore sedimentary units range from the Cambrian through the Lower Cretaceous. Many of these formations are extremely fossiliferous. The Bighorn Mountains were uplifted during the Laramide Orogeny beginning approximately 70 million years ago. Large volumes of sediments, rich in early Tertiary paleontological resources, were deposited in the adjoining basins. This report provides a preliminary assessment of paleontological resources identified at Bighorn Canyon National Recreation Area. STRATIGRAPHY The stratigraphic record at Bighorn Canyon National Recreation Area extends from the Cambrian through the Cretaceous (Figure 2). The only time period during this interval that is not represented is the Silurian.

  • Assessing the Petroleum Geology and Future Development of the Clendenin Gas Field in Kanawha County, West Virginia
    Assessing the Petroleum Geology and Future Development of the Clendenin Gas Field in Kanawha County, West Virginia By: Jonathan Prevatte August 2020 Director of Thesis: Donald W. Neal Major Department: Geological Sciences Petroleum is one of the main sources for energy production in the US and is therefore important for the continuation of economic growth. Future development of petroleum resources in the US to meet supply demands is equally important. Understanding the controls on petroleum production will help in determining where and how to development these resources for maximum production. West Virginia is home to many gas fields and is underlain by one of the more prominent gas producing shales, the Marcellus Shale. The Clendenin Gas Field in Kanawha County is one of the historical gas producing areas found in West Virginia. This assessment is focused on the Devonian strata throughout the field including the Marcellus Shale. Using available geophysical logs, production data, and historic well records obtained from the West Virginia Geologic and Economic Survey (WVGES), cross-sections, isopach maps, and structure contour maps were created to give a visual representation of the subsurface geology across the field. Construction of the cross-sections and maps in conjunction with production and well record data aided in the identification of controls influencing production throughout the field. Applying the findings of this assessment to future production may reduce costs and improve yields of future petroleum wells. Results of this study indicate several options should be considered when planning for future production wells within the field. Target areas include the areas to the east of the field where formations tend to thicken.
