Tectonic, foreland-basin origins of Upper Ordovician black gas shales in the Appalachian Basin of eastern United States
Black gas shales are major parts of many foreland-basin sequences and comprise important components of unconformity-bound tectophase cycles, which reflect sedimentary/stratigraphic, flexural responses to deformational loading and relaxation in an orogen. Using as examples Upper Ordovician black gas...
