Paleomagnetic results from 17 sites in one quarry of the Cambrian (Dresbachian Stage) Taum Sauk Limestone (member Bonneterre Formation) reveal two components of magnetization. On the basis of thermal demagnetization, coercivity spectrum analysis, and petrographic evidence, both components reside in hematite.

May 01, 2013 ABSTRACT Electromagnetic signals from distant radio transmitters in the frequency range 15–250 kHz were measured to model an electrical resistivity structure beneath 7 profiles in the vicinity of the Karinu limestone quarry in Estonia with the aim to map the extent of the economically exploitable limestone. The resistivity models from a 2D inversion of determinant resistivity and phase ...

Sedimentary limestone deposits can be extensive, covering hundreds . of square miles, and can be relatively uniform in thickness and quality. There-fore, limestone quarries can be large and long lived, mining limestone layers that can be hundreds of feet thick over areas of several square miles. Many quarries produce multiple products, and

This study examines stream loss in a small tributary of the Youghiogheny River known as Hoyes Run in Garrett County, Maryland. The stream bounds the pit of the Deep Creek limestone quarry, operated by Keystone Lime Company. During low flow, the stream abruptly terminates in a swallet, leaving approximately 100 m of dry streambed. In addition to geophysically investigating this swallet, our ...

Full knowledge of the physical and mechanical behavior of limestone rocks is required for the safe design of structures. Little work has been done to characterize the physical and mechanical properties of Jordanian limestone especially under watery environment. Therefore, in this study the physical and mechanical properties of some Jordanian limestone were investigated.

Indiana Limestone, which is a Mississippian-age grainstone of very uniform texture and grade, has gained world-wide acceptance as a premier dimension stone. The Salem Limestone, which is the geologic formational name for this carbonate unit, crops out in a belt that trends southward from Stinesville in Monroe County to Bedford in Lawrence County.

Many geophysical methods have been employed in characterizing carbonate bedrock to assess potential engineering and hydrologic problems. Traditionally, microgravity and resistivity have been utilized with some success. While viable, these methods are prone to inaccuracies due to variability in operator and data acquisition techniques. Additionally, these methods are often expensive and labor ...

The limestone is of Visean age, towards the old end of the Carboniferous period; essentially the same rock that we spend a week on every three years on the geophysics field course, and that I visited in Yorkshire a few weeks ago. There is an extensive area of the limestone along the top of the Clwydian hills, but it comes to an abrupt end at Prestatyn, at a fault, the other side of which is ...
