Pennsylvania In making topogrqpic
and geologic maps of the bituminous
cosl fields of western Pennsylvania.
The country is mapped by quadran-
girlsr sections containing “mm. 225
square miles each. One of the sections
thus mapped Is in Armstrong and
lndlana counties. 13 trv 17 miles In
extent. at the center of which is South
Band. A detailed topographic map.
llaotvn as the Eldersridge atlas street
was first constructed by u' topographic
party under Mr. Frank Sutton. of the
Geological Survey; this shows all
creeks. highWays. railroads and hurts
ourand indicates .the shapes and altl~
tildes of the hills by contour lines. The
region was ‘therr visitedwhy as geologic
party composed of Messrs. _ R. W.
Stone and I.. H. Woolsey. of the Cool-
ogical Survey. who. carefully traced
the outcropplnss of the Allegheny.
Conemaugh and Monongahela forma-
liens -. . ' ing‘
The Allegheny formation contains
the ser-
lifelous limestone bower and Upper
Kittanning coal seams, and Lower and
Upper Freeport coal seams. the latter
of which averages 'fottr fleet In thick-
ness and is of good quality and very
persistent.
The Conemaugh formation. 600 feet
thick is not coal hearing. The Pitts-
burg (Cal ut the base of the Monon
'ahcla formation. ls mined extensively
in a seam 6 to 8 feet, thick at Avon-
mor‘e River. and is opened by primer
one country banks as far as the most
northern occurrence of the seam. near
West. lebanon. The Redstone and
Mapleton coal seams are not of work-
able thickness. 4
Besides tracing the outcrops of
unions beds the geologic structure
was determined by obtaining the alti-
tude of tire outcrop at a great many
points. The rocks are thrown into
anticliues and syuclines. or gentle
rolls. The principal anticllnes (arches)
are Roaring Run anticllne. which fol-
lows the stream of that name and
bonds to the trust between Plum Creek
and Dutch Run. and the Saltsbura
anticliue. which pursues a double
curve past' Ebenezer and Jacksonville.
Between these twa arches 'iles a no
elinal basin itrouzh). the axis of
which ci‘osses tire Klskzminltos River-
at Edrl. passes through Eldersrldge
and just west of West Lebanon to
Sheiocta. where it turns nearly east.
These rolls in the structure are of the
utmost lrnportance'to oil anti gas men
since they are the controlling factors
or determine the location of the pools.
They also have a bearing upon the
outmomlcal opeartion of coal mines.
and hence these maps should be of ctr-
lue to operators. The geologic struc-
ture will be represented on the map by
contour lines on the floor of the Upper
lr‘reeport coal. anti the outcroppings of
important formations will be

the erection of over a third of a mile
of sheds for freight and the laying of
four or live miles of branch tracks.
These mammoth structures will rrlrut
