... channels trends can be made. In the Morgantown and Hancock County districts, coal beds are lenticular and commonly associated with sandstone paleochannels. Delineation of the sandstone channels is a considerable aid in exploration for these discontinuous beds. Past coal-mining activity in western Kentucky...

These sandstones were tested for percent absorption, density, slake durability, total pore volume, uniaxial compressive strength, tensile strength...

...Arthur W. Rose; D. C. Herrick; Peter Deines Abstract Contact metasomatic magnetite ores of the Cornwall type in Pennsylvania occur as replacements of carbonate rocks adjacent to sheets and dikes of Triassic diabase. In addition to large (10 8 tons) magnetite deposits at Cornwall and Morgantown...

... of the overlying 100 ft (30 m) thick, thick bedded to massive, Morgantown sandstone. Based on regional Pleistocene time correlations, the original rockslides probably occurred in Early Pleistocene (Illinoian or pre-Illinoian) time, on the order of 0.6 1.6 million years ago. Lateral stress release accompanying...

... in geometry and structural styles, we divided the Warfield structures into shallow (above the Devonian Onondaga Limestone), intermediate (between the Devonian Onondaga Limestone and the Silurian Tuscarora Sandstone), and deep (below the Ordovician Trenton horizon) structural levels. Shallow structures...

Observations made in our previous studies in Illinois are consistent with the confined-unconfined model and include rapid head drops, changes to unconfined conditions, and increases in sulfate and TDS during re-saturation of a sandstone aquifer. Studies reported from the Appalachian coalfield show aspects...
