... from Hidalgo, Texas. At Reynosa the rocks unconformably overlie what was then called the Fayette sands, now known to include strata of upper Eocene, Oligocene, and Miocene age. Penrose found Recent shells embedded in the surface of the exposure and, thinking the formation was Recent, included it in his...

...Albert W. Weeks ABSTRACT Thin deposits of sandy clay, sand, gravel, and caliche lie on the Cretaceous and Tertiary formations in extensive areas of the Coastal Plain of Texas. One portion of these deposits has been named the Reynosa formation by Trowbridge 3 and Deussen, 4 and another, the Lissie...

..., including the glazes. The Reynosa formation consists of 85 feet of upper caliches, alluvial sands, silts, and gravels formed on a post-Oakville or post-Lagarto plain, with several soil (caliche) beds. The Lower Reynosa is slightly thicker (not 600 or 1,500 feet, as some report), including gray sandstones...

...I. R. Sheldon ABSTRACT The Driscoll pool is in central Duval County in southwest Texas. The surface is mantled by caliche and gravels of Recent age which makes surface geology unreliable. Sands and clays of the Reynosa or Lower Lissie formation of Pliocene age make up the surface exposures. Tests...

... and Origin of Caliche.” I have not had time to sit down and read the paper slowly and follow by a comprehensive study of the whole thing. I note, however, that you are concerned first, with the relationships of the Reynosa formation to the caliche underlying the so-called Reynosa Plateau, and in the second...
