... pre-Des Moines intraformational disconformity that preceded the basination of the Paradox geosyncline. Localized subsidence of a major part of the former widespread San Luis platform occurred to form the Paradox evaporite basin, which was a southeast-projecting arm of the Cordilleran geosyncline...

... sandstone, feldspathic sandstone, arkose, and arkosic conglomerate. These stratal variations were most strongly influenced not only by the major source area in the Uncompahgre-San Luis highland but also by the rate and periodicity of subsidence of the Paradox geosyncline. The structural history...

...Sherman A. Wengerd ABSTRACT The San Juan basin is a post-Pennsylvanian tectonic subsidence area closely related in its early sedimentational history to the Paradox geosyncline. During early Pennsylvanian time, this region was subjected to widespread erosion, but received high-shelf Pinkerton Trail...

... of the Paradox formation. This datum, over a great part of the region, is a disconformity which marks the end of Paradox penesaline deposition, and is a mappable surface critical in the evaluation of the sedimentational and structural history of the Paradox geosyncline. As new drilling proceeds in the wildcat...

... Mexico and a part of southwestern Colorado. The area of the basin was a southeastern shelf and positive area genetically related to the early Paleozoic Cordilleran geosyncline; an unstable marine shelf to sedimentational accessway southeast of the Pennsylvanian Paradox geosyncline bounded by the San Luis...

...Sherman A. Wengerd ABSTRACT The Lucero basin of central New Mexico was an area of Pennsylvanian sedimentation representing a significant widening of the central New Mexico seaway or accessway from the Paradox geosyncline on the north to the Sonoran geosyncline on the south. Several such basins...

... Abstract The Paradox basin, about 360 miles long in northwesterly trend, and 180 miles wide, subsided obliquely across the high southeast shelf of the Cordilleran geosyncline during mid-Pennsylvanian time after an earlier Pennsylvanian history of shelf deposition of red clastics to form...

... subsidence occurred in the north where the Paradox Salt basin formed as an asymmetrical half graben. On the south, depositional centers formed in the Pennsylvanian San Juan and Lucero basins. The seaway opened northwest onto the rapidly subsiding Oquirrh shelf, northeast into the northern Colorado trough...
