Title: Comparative Columnar Sections of the Domengine-Arroyo Hondo Sandstone Intervals between Cantua Creek and Waltham Canyon, Coalinga District, California: ABSTRACT

Author(s): J. Q. Anderson

Article Type: Meeting abstract

Abstract:

Presentation of a series of slides showing 13 hand-leveled surface columnar sections of the Domengine-Arroyo Hondo sandstone intervals measured at varying distances between Cantua Creek and Waltham Canyon. Correlation of all sections is based on the "black pebble bed" or Domengine Reef. Discussion involves demonstration of lateral variation and facies changes in lithology of both intervals. Deals briefly with Domengine-Kreyenhagen contact, fossil occurrences, and contact relations of the Arroyo Hondo sand with Arroyo Hondo shale and the Moreno shale.
