The Garber Sandstone is a geologic formation from the Permian Period in Oklahoma. It serves as an important aquifer, the Garber-Wellington Aquifer, in Logan, Oklahoma, and Cleveland counties of central Oklahoma. [2] The upper portion of the Garber is associated with extensive baryte mineralization associated with desert rose occurrences in the ...

As a shale, the Wellington Formation has limited exposures, but tends towards forming moderate soil-covered slopes below Kiowa Sandstone caprocks. This is aggravated by the fact that when the Wellington is close to the surface, ground water dissolves the salt, causing the upper Wellington shales to sink and become covered by river and lake muds.
The first seven counties were later renamed. The Oklahoma Constitutional Convention named all of the counties that were formed when Oklahoma entered statehood in 1907. Only two counties have been formed since then. [2] Upon statehood, all Oklahoma counties allowed civil townships within their counties. A few years after statehood, a ...

An aquifer is a geologic formation, a group of formations, or a part of a formation that contains sufficient saturated permeable material to yield significant quantities of water to groundwater wells and springs.
The Texas and Oklahoma red beds are sedimentary rocks, mostly consisting of sandstone and red mudstone. [8] The red color of the rocks is due to the presence of ferric oxide. [9] The rocks were deposited during the early Permian in a warm, moist climate, [10] with seasonal periods of dry conditions. [11]

Geologic map A field of flowers in the Arbuckle foothills. Geologically the Arbuckles are an elongate anticline structure with an orientation or strike of west-northwest. The core of the structure consists of Proterozoic extrusive and intrusive rocks, the Colbert rhyolite porphyry and the Tishomingo granite (age dated at 1374 Ma), [3] which are overlain by the Arbuckle Group, the Simpson Group ...
