Abstract
The Illinois Basin, Mississippi Embayment, and Ouachita Orogenic Belt
C. John Mann
ABSTRACT
Evidence that the Illinois Basin was open to the south during the Mississippian, the geographical coincidence of a unique Ouachita lithic area with the Mississippi Embayment, the distribution of Late Paleozoic sediments, interpreted paleoslopes, and interpreted structural relationships suggested that the Embayment existed during Late Paleozoic. Further insight into the Ouachita orogenic belt and its relation to the Appalachian belt may be gained if the age of subsidence of the Mississippi Embayment and its modification from or to the Ouachita belt can be determined.
