Abstract:
In this paper surface and subsurface maps of an area comprising six townships and four producing fields are shown. From these and other data it is concluded that these producing folds are anticlinal buried hills and are contemporaneous with the Nemaha Mountains. Surface geology was largely responsible for the development of this area. The subsurface folds directly underlie the surface folds with remarkable consistency.
The conclusion is drawn that the surface folds are due to differential settling and depositional dip of the upper horizons over the Ordovician buried hills. The principal producing horizon is the unconformable contact between the Ordovician and later sediments. Furthermore, it is concluded that the oil has migrated laterally for some distance from its source in the lower Pennsylvanian and Chattanooga to its present position.
