  • Dolomite: Occurrence, Evolution and Economically Important Associations
    Earth-Science Reviews 52Ž. 2000 1±81 www.elsevier.comrlocaterearscirev Dolomite: occurrence, evolution and economically important associations John Warren Department Petroleum Geosciences, UniÕersity Brunei Darussalam, Tungku Link, Bandar Seri Begawan, Brunei Received 14 October 1999; accepted 7 July 2000 Abstract Dolomite is not a simple mineral; it can form as a primary precipitate, a diagenetic replacement, or as a hydrothermalrmetamorphic phase, all that it requires is permeability, a mechanism that facilitates fluid flow, and a sufficient supply of magnesium. Dolomite can form in lakes, on or beneath the shallow seafloor, in zones of brine reflux, and in early to late burial settings. It may form from seawater, from continental waters, from the mixing of basinal brines, the mixing of hypersaline brine with seawater, or the mixing of seawater with meteoric water, or via the cooling of basinal brines. Bacterial metabolism may aid the process of precipitation in settings where sulfate-reducing species flourish and microbial action may control primary precipitation in some hypersaline anoxic lake settings. Dolomite is a metastable mineral, early formed crystals can be replaced by later more stable phases with such replacements repeated a number of times during burial and metamorphism. Each new phase is formed by the partial or complete dissolution of an earlier dolomite. This continual re-equilibration during burial detracts from the ability of trace elements to indicate depositional conditions and resets the oxygen isotope signature of the dolomite at progressively higher temperatures. Because subsurface dolomite evolves via dissolution and reprecipitation, a bed of dolomite can retain or create porosity and permeability to much greater burial depths and into higher temperature realms than a limestone counterpart.

  • Reference Section of the Cambrian-Age Rome Formation to Ordovician-Age Mascot Dolomite Measured Near Gate City, Virginia
    COMMONWEALTH OF VI DEPARTMEN OF MWES, MINERALS hchmond, Virginia VOL. 47 MAY 200 1 NO. 2 Reference Section of the Cambrian-age Rome Formation to Ordovician-age Mascot Dolomite measured near Gate City, Virginia William W. Whitlock A reference section, extending fiom the Middle Cambrian Rome Formation into the Lower Ordovician Mascot Dolomite; was measured in Scott County, Virginia. This is one of the most complete measured sections in Scott County and the surrounding area. The continuity and nearly complete exposure allows for examination of stratigraphic relationships between adjacent geologic formations and individual rock units. Sedimentary features such as cyclic bedded limestones, "algal-head" structures, thrombolitic dolomites, and possible paleokarst collapse features are present. Construction of State Highway 72 (formerly State Road 660) in Scott County, Virginia northeast of Gate City exposed a nearly continuous section of Cambrian to Ordovician age rocks. During the Fall of 1993, the author measured the stratigraphic section while mapping the geology of the Gate City and Kingsport 7.5-minute quadrangles. The section is comprised of 3991 feet of limestone, dolostone, shale, sandstone, and siltstone. The rocks are divisible into the following formations (in ascending order): Cambrian-age Rome Formation, Rutledge Formation, Rogersville Shale, Maryville Limestone, Nolichucky and Maynardville Formations, and Copper Ridge Dolomite, and the Ordovician-age Chepultepec, Kingsport, and Mascot Dolomites. The section begins south of Copper Creek along the north side of State Highway 72 and extends south along State Highway 72 to approximately 1800 feet north of State Highway 71 (Figure 1). Figure 1.

  • Regional Seismic Lines Across the Rome Trough and Allegheny Plateau of Northern West Virginia, Western Maryland, and Southwestern Pennsylvania
    U.S. DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR TO ACCOMPANY MAP I–2791 U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY REGIONAL SEISMIC LINES ACROSS THE ROME TROUGH AND ALLEGHENY PLATEAU OF NORTHERN WEST VIRGINIA, WESTERN MARYLAND, AND SOUTHWESTERN PENNSYLVANIA By Christopher S. Kulander 1 and Robert T. Ryder 2 INTRODUCTION having thin-skinned structures with greater tectonic shortening. These provinces meet at a physiographic and structural boundary The study area for this investigation is the central Appalachian called the Allegheny structural front. The Rome trough, a north­ basin (see index map below). The northern West Virginia, west­ east-trending graben that involves basement, underlies the ern Maryland, and southwestern Pennsylvania parts of the cen­ Allegheny Plateau (fig. 2). Commonly, basement rocks in the tral Appalachian basin consist of complex structural geometries Rome trough are buried beneath at least 20,000 feet (ft) of and a thick Paleozoic sequence. Here, the basin coincides with Paleozoic strata (Shumaker, 1996). Little has been published that is related to the deep structure of 80˚ the Rome trough in northern West Virginia, western Maryland, and southwestern Pennsylvania. Wells drilled to basement are absent here and most of the multi-fold seismic data are propri­ etary. Although Ryder (1991) and Ryder and others (1992) con­ NY structed several detailed stratigraphic cross sections of Cambrian and Ordovician strata across parts of the Rome trough and Shumaker (1996) mapped basement structure along the entire PA NJ 40˚ Rome trough from central Kentucky to northeastern Pennsylvania, few interpreted, regional seismic-based geologic OH MD DE cross sections have been published in this area. The objective of this investigation is to interpret the structure and stratigraphy of 40˚ WV the Rome trough and Allegheny Plateau of northern West VA Virginia, western Maryland, and southwestern Pennsylvania KY based on three multi-fold seismic lines acquired by Amoco in the early 1980s.
