Abstract:
Western Interior United States lies athwart parts of the North American Paleozoic-Mesozoic craton and the miogeosynclinal and eugeosynclinal belts of the Cordilleran orthogeosyncline. Tectonic activity during deposition in the eugeosynclinal belt plus strong orogeny afterward contrasts markedly with contemporaneous cratonic quiet. The miogeosynclinal belt shares sedimentational and diastrophic aspects of the other two provinces. The conclusion is stated that future petroleum reserves in the Paleozoic and Mesozoic rocks of Western Interior United States do not exist in the Cordilleran eugeosynclinal belt, probably do not exist in the miogeosynclinal belt, but do lie in abundance on the craton.
