Description:

Abstract:

This cover contains wells identified by Dart as having useful information for defining the Paleozoic basement in the New Madrid region. Some wells had borehole breakout data that were useful for interpreting the regional stress field. These locations are included in the cover "stress" and identified with type 'b'. Data from other wells was more useful for controlling depth to the basement, or providing information useful for determining the rifting history of the Rough Creek Graben and Reelfoot rift, or coeval rifting elsewhere in the map area. These and other wells are included in cover "cwell".

Purpose:

The data was generated to help in understanding the seismotectonic hazards in the vicinity of the lower Wabash Valley. This data complements similar data collected in the vicinity of New Madrid, MO US Geological Survey Open-File Report 95-0574, available via ftp at http://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1995/0574/
