Excerpt: ... PAET III. THE GEOLOGY DESCRIBED BY TOWNSIQTS. Chapter X. Dim hard Township, Greene County. In this township' the exposed rocks extend from 370 feet below the Pittsburg coal to about 70 feet above the Washington coal, the higher strata being found on the northern and western borders and on a few high knobs in the center. The lower barren series is exposed only in the vicinity of the river and the surface rocks for the most part belong to the upper coal series. The dip throughout the township is toward the north west, but the rate is quite variable. On Crooked run, in the south-eastern corner, where the Pittsburg coal attains almost its highest elevation above the river, the following section was obtained: 1. Sandstone 30' 2. Pittsburg coa 7' 3. Concealed 130' 4. Limestone 5' 5. Shale 15' fi. Coal blossom. 7. Sandstone 95' 8. Coal 2'4" 9. Shaie 4' 10. Clay shale 8' 11. Concealed to river 80 No. 7 is the first sandstone of the oil-wells on Dunkard creek and, as here exposed, is irregularly massive to shaly. It is persistent in the river hills, being traceable quite to Morgantown in West Virginia, though it shows marked variations in structure. At many localities it is extensively quarried for building purposes. During its deposition it cut out the underlying coal, which varies from 0 to 2 feet 4 inches in thickness. Fragments of coal are numerous in the lower portion of the sandstone, many of which are saucer-shaped, as though the material were soft when torn from its place. The Pittsburg is not opened in the vicinity of the section and its overlying sandstone is extremely coarse, almot conglomerate. Opposite the mouth of Cheat river, the Pittsburg Coal is mined by Mr. A. Dillner, at 372 feet above the Monongahela river. It there shows the following structur...
