..., cemented thin bed at the base of the Sunbury Shale (driller’s Coffee shale). The sequence is similar to the outcrop found on the eastern side of Cleveland, but not like western outcrops of Berea Sandstone. In Portage County, the sand is currently interpreted as fluvial or deltaic. Within the field...

... of the Black shale series is a white shale (“fire clay” of the drillers) that is widespread in eastern Kentucky. This is underlain in some areas by 10–20 feet of brown shale (“Coffee shale” of the drillers). This white shale is similar to that known on the outcrop in Ohio as the Olentangy and was provisionally...

Photomicrographs of representative siliciclastic-grain-bearing lithofacies of the Chaffee Group, arranged in descending stratigraphic order. A, Gilman sandstone with bimodal sorting of very well-rounded medium- to coarse-grained quartz in a coarse silt to very fine sand matrix. Crossed polarized light (63 m, Bison Lake). B, Karst-like infill of fine-grained quartz sandstone into a fractured part of the uppermost Coffee Pot Member of the Dyer Formation (64.2 m; Bison Lake); C, Normally graded quartz lamina in a laminated detrital dolomite siltstone (cf. Figure 2C) in the Coffee Pot Member (34.0 m, Bison Lake); D, Quartz sand in skeletal grainstone in the lower Coffee Pot Member (30.05 m, Crane Park quarry; cf. Figure 2D and E). E, Delicate algospongian “twigs” identified as Serrisinella melekessensis in a peloidal wackstone-packstone of the basal Coffee Pot Member, with scattered fragments of brachiopods and echinoderms, but minimal or no suspended quartz silt (29.0 m, Crane Park quarry). F, Peloidal grainstone from the upper Broken Rib Member with calcispheres and horizontal tuning-fork shaped wispy shale laminae (black) studded with sparse angular quartz silt grains (white, arrowhead at lower lamina; 27.5 m, Crane Park quarry). G, Poorly sorted quartz arenite from the uppermost Parting Formation viewed in cross-polarized light (-2.5 m, Bison Lake). Images are in plane polarized light unless otherwise indicated.

...J. F. Truswell Abstract At Coffee Bay fine-grained greywackes, silts and shales are attributed to the Southern facies of the Lower Ecca of the Karroo System. Within this sequence a structureless shale is riddled with intrusive sandstones; sheets, often branching, dominate the complex, but flat...

(a) Map of South Africa with the major tectonic provinces indicated. The Archean Kaapvaal Craton (KVC) is surrounded by the Proterozoic Namaqua-Natal belt (NNB), and the younger Cape Fold Belt in the south. All of these provinces are overlain by the Late Carboniferous to Early Jurassic main Karoo Basin (thick black line) (Johnson et al., 2006). (b) Simplified structural map of the southern Karoo. The main dyke trends determined from the 1:1,000,000 map are east-west and north-northwest. These trends are associated with an inferred transform fault in the central Karoo linking inferred rifts off the west and east coast (Chevallier et al., 2001). Chevallier et al. (2001) divided the dykes into three domains (D1, D2 and D3). The dolerite line defines the southern limit of the outcropping dolerites (thick red line). Deep wells in the Karoo are indicated (black triangles). The northeastern limit of the Whitehill Formation ( the source of possible shale gas) is indicated by the towns Hertzogville (HV) and Coffee Bay (CB) (Cole et al., 2011).

When this area had received 150–200 feet of sediment, a broad warping movement took place. According...

(a) Plot of the dolerite thickness distribution within the Karoo Basin from unpublished well logs (modified from Scheiber et al. (2014)). Dolerite thicknesses are indicated: greater than 500 m (red triangles), between 500 and 150 m (orange triangles), less than 150 m (green triangles), and zero dolerites (blue triangles). Soekor seismic lines in the southern part of the basin are marked (black lines). The towns of Fraserburg (FB), Somerset-East (SE), Queenstown (QT), Aliwal North (AN), East London (EL), Beaufort West (BW), Coffee Bay (CB) and Hertzogville (HV) are marked. The dotted line indicates the profile shown in (b). (b) Approximately southwest- northeast profile through the main Karoo Basin, showing the dolerite distribution (horizontal lines) in deep wells QU1/66, AB1/65, KA1/66, VREDE1/66, CR1/68, WE1/66 and SW1/67. Stratigraphic boundaries are marked (dotted lines) and stratigraphic units labelled: BF=Beaufort Group, EC=upper Ecca Group, ES=Ecca shales (Prince Albert and Whitehill Formations), DW=Dwyka Group, BV=Bokkeveld Group (red square), TM=Table Mountain Group (orange triangle), GG=Granite-gneiss basement (blue square). The total well depths are indicated with solid black lines. Over 400 m of dolerite occurs in each well in the east/southeast and northwestern parts of the basin at all stratigraphic levels, while <150 m of dolerite is found in the south-central basin within wells KA1/66, VREDE1/66 and CR1/68. Dolerite in the south-central part of the basin intrudes the Beaufort Group.
