-
-Although the age of the Earth is measured in billions of years, the face
-of Illinois is young—a mere 15,000 years old.
-
-During the Ice Age, most of Illinois was repeatedly invaded by huge
-glaciers, sometimes towering a mile or more high, that carried embedded
-in them ground up rock materials they had gouged out of the bedrock to
-the north as they ponderously pushed south.
-
-When the last of the glaciers melted from Illinois, about 15,000 years
-ago, the country that emerged looked far different from the preglacial
-land. Old hills and valleys had vanished, new ones had formed, and a
-mantle of unconsolidated rock material, the burden carried by the ice
-and dropped as the ice melted, lay over most of the region.
-
-Most of this material, called glacial drift, was brought in by the ice
-during the last two of the four major periods of glaciation—the
-Illinoian period 100,000 to 150,000 years ago and the Wisconsinan 5,000
-to 50,000 years ago. The older drift introduced during the Kansan and
-Nebraskan glacial periods is almost entirely buried beneath the later
-drifts.
-
-The glaciers covered all of Illinois except the northwestern corner, the
-southwestern edge along the Mississippi River, and extreme southern
-Illinois, as shown in figure 1. In those areas the land is much as it
-was before the glaciers came. In the glaciated portion of the state,
-however, the bedrock generally is covered by the rock debris the ice
-carried from as far away as Canada. As the fringes of the ice melted,
-these loads of rock material were, in some places, dumped as ridges
-(moraines) which are the hills and mounds on the flat prairies of the
-present landscape. Such material also filled ancient river valleys, but
-new valleys were cut by torrents of water released by the melting ice.
-
- [Illustration: Figure 1—A mantle of glacial drift covers the bedrock
- in much of Illinois.]
-
- WISCONSINAN GLACIAL DRIFT
- KANSAN GLACIAL DRIFT
- ILLINOIAN GLACIAL DRIFT
-
-The glacial drift belongs to the youngest (topmost layer) of the major
-divisions of our rocks, which geologists have named the Pleistocene
-(scientific name for Ice Age deposits).
-
-Most of the drift is an unsorted mixture of clay, pebbles, and boulders
-called “till,” but some glacial deposits consist of water-sorted sand
-and gravel carried and deposited by meltwater from the glaciers. Other
-materials were deposited by the wind—sand was piled into shifting dunes
-and fine silts were spread like a blanket over the land. This mantle of
-silt is called loess.
-
-The glacial deposits contain a wide variety of rocks, some brought from
-regions to the north, others scoured from the layers of native rock in
-Illinois.
-
-The limits of the Illinoian, the Wisconsinan, and the Kansan glaciations
-are shown in figure 1. Some of the more prominent moraines are sketched
-with dark gray lines on plate 1. Within this area, glacial drift covers
-the bedrock except along valleys where streams have cut through and
-removed it.
-
-
- BEDROCK GEOLOGY
-
-Beneath the glacial drift of Illinois many layers of rocks overlie a
-base of ancient crystalline rocks that in Illinois occur at depths of
-2,000 to as much as 15,000 feet. The geologic map (plate 1, in pocket)
-is drawn as if the mantle of glacial drift had been removed to expose
-the layers of bedrock, which are largely limestone, shale, and
-sandstone.
-
-The key on the map shows the age sequence of the rocks, arranged with
-the youngest at the top, and gives the names that geologists have
-assigned to the various systems of rocks. Each system consists of rocks
-that were deposited during a long period of time. The complete sequence
-of rocks might be likened to a book of earth history, and each system
-likened to a chapter. Systems are divided into formations, which might
-be regarded as pages in the book.
-
-As shown on the generalized rock column in figure 2, the rocks next
-older than the glacial drift (Pleistocene) are the Tertiary and
-Cretaceous sands, gravels, and clays, mostly unconsolidated. They occur
-only at the extreme southern tip of Illinois and were deposited when
-that area was covered by a northward extension of the Gulf of Mexico.
-The Tertiary rocks are shown on the map in grayed pink (T) and the
-Cretaceous in red-violet (K).
-
-Next older than the Cretaceous are the Pennsylvanian rocks, named for
-the state of Pennsylvania where they are well exposed and were first
-studied.
-
-The Pennsylvanian System is divided into two areas on the map (P¹ and
-P²). The rocks shown in lightest gray (P²) lie above the No. 6 Coal in
-the sequence and those in medium gray (P¹) lie below it. The No. 6 Coal
-is one of the thickest, most valuable coals in the state. Pennsylvanian
-rocks occur under the glacial drift, and their thickness ranges from a
-few feet to as much as 3,000 feet.
-
- [Illustration: Figure 2—Diagram of layers of rocks in Illinois. The
- oldest rocks are at the bottom, the youngest at the top. Names are
- the standard ones applied by geologists to the subdivisions of the
- geologic eras.]

-
-The Pennsylvanian System contains many different kinds of rocks,
-including all of our minable coals. It also contains important deposits
-of limestone, shale, and clay, and at places oil and gas.
-
-Next below the Pennsylvanian are the rocks of the Mississippian System,
-shown in blue on the map (M¹ and M²). The lower and middle Mississippian
-rocks (M¹) are largely limestone in and near the areas mapped, but in
-the central and eastern part of the state where they are buried under
-Pennsylvanian rocks they contain much siltstone and cherty limestone.
-The upper Mississippian rocks (M²) consist of a succession of sandstone,
-shale, and limestone formations.
-
-This system of rocks takes its name from the Mississippi River because
-there are excellent exposures of these strata along the Mississippi
-Valley in western Illinois, southeastern Iowa, and eastern Missouri.
-
-The Mississippian rocks are a source of limestone, fluorspar, zinc, and
-ganister, and are of greatest economic significance in southeastern
-Illinois where they are the most important of our oil-producing rocks.
-
-The Devonian (D, dark gray on the map), Silurian, (S, violet),
-Ordovician (O, light pink), and Cambrian (C, deep pink) rocks, in the
-order named, are older than the Mississippian strata. In general, they
-include dolomite, limestone, shale, and sandstone. Except for small
-areas along the Mississippi and Illinois River Valleys, these older
-rocks are found at the surface only in the northern quarter of the state
-and locally in Alexander, Hardin, Jackson, Monroe, Pike, and Union
-Counties. They are nevertheless economically important because they
-yield limestone, dolomite, silica sand, oil, zinc and lead, tripoli,
-novaculite, and novaculite gravel.
-
-The rocks of the Cambrian through Pennsylvanian Systems belong to the
-Paleozoic Era. The Paleozoic rocks overlie crystalline rocks, such as
-granites, that extend to unknown depths in the crust of the earth. The
-crystalline rocks are not exposed in Illinois but are encountered in the
-drilling of some deep wells and may be seen in the nearby Missouri
-Ozarks and in central Wisconsin.
-
-
- STRUCTURAL GEOLOGY
-
-The rock formations appear to lie flat in most of Illinois, but they are
-slightly inclined in most places. In some areas they are down-warped
-into basins and troughs (synclines), upfolded into domes and arches
-(anticlines), or broken by faults.
-
-The largest structural feature in Illinois is a great spoon-shaped
-basin—the Illinois Basin—that extends southeastward into Indiana and
-Kentucky. The deepest part of the basin is in southeastern Illinois.
-
- [Illustration: Figure 3—When rocks are down-warped and the surface
- is leveled by erosion, the youngest rocks are preserved in the
- center and the older rocks are exposed at the margins.]
-
-Because the entire region, including the basin, has been eroded by rain,
-ice, wind, and many rivers and streams, the youngest Paleozoic rocks
-(top-most layers) are preserved only in the middle of the basin, as
-shown in figures 3, 6, and 7. This is why the map shows the coal-bearing
-rocks of Pennsylvanian age in the center of the state and the older
-rocks cropping out in successive bands around the margins of the basin
-in southern, western, and northern Illinois.
-
-Distribution of bedrock in northern Illinois is influenced by a broad
-upfold or arch (see figures 4, 6, and 7). The map (plate 1) shows the
-older rocks (Cambrian and Ordovician) exposed at the center of the arch
-and surrounded by younger Silurian and Devonian rocks. Another elongated
-upfold (anticlinal belt) extends from the vicinity of Dixon
-southeastward into Indiana. The crest of the upfold is indicated on the
-map by patches of Silurian and Devonian rocks in Champaign and Douglas
-Counties.
-
- [Illustration: Figure 4—When rocks are upfolded and the surface is
- eroded, the older rocks are exposed at the crest of the dome or
- anticline.]
-
-In extreme southern Illinois and in north-central Illinois, the rock
-layers are broken by great faults (see figures 5 and 6) which displace
-the layers of rocks by as little as a few inches to as much as 3,000
-feet.
-
-The structural map of Illinois (figure 6) shows the position of the
-major geologic structures. The big basin is indicated by shading, with
-the darkest pattern showing where the basin is deepest. The same strata
-that lie at sea level at the basin’s outer edge are downwarped to 6,000
-feet below sea level in its deepest part. Axes of some small anticlines
-and locations of major fault zones also are shown.
-
- [Illustration: Figure 5—When rocks are faulted by earth stresses,
- the layers of rock are displaced or offset.]

-
- HISTORICAL GEOLOGY
-
-Reading the history of the earth’s crust is like reading a mystery
-story. The geologist must examine, or read, each rock layer, from the
-youngest at the top to the oldest at the bottom, searching for clues to
-its origin, age, and development from which he can reconstruct the past.
-
-One of the clues to the past is the fossil remains of plants and animals
-found in the rocks. For instance, if a certain coral is known to have
-lived only during one span of time, all rocks containing that coral
-fossil must have been formed within that span.
-
-Records of wells (well logs) and rock cores or samples collected when
-test holes are drilled into the bedrock also reveal much about the
-sequence of rock strata beneath the surface. The kinds of rocks
-encountered tell, in addition, something about ancient geography, for
-some were formed on land and others were deposited in long-departed
-seas.
-
-Such knowledge is extremely important in finding and developing mineral
-resources such as coal and oil.
-
-
- ECONOMIC GEOLOGY
-
-Minerals produced commercially in Illinois include crude oil, coal,
-limestone, dolomite, clay, sand, gravel, fluorspar, tripoli, ganister,
-novaculite gravel, silica sand, and the metals zinc and lead. The
-distribution of mineral industries, shown in the several maps of figures
-8 through 12, is, of course, related to the distribution of the rocks
-(plate 1). For example, the coal mines are scattered along the margin of
-the area of Pennsylvanian rocks where the coals are at relatively
-shallow depths.
-
-The mineral fuels, coal and petroleum, are the leading mineral products
-of Illinois, making up about 70 percent of the annual value of all
-minerals produced in the state. For many years coal was at the top of
-the list, but petroleum now holds first place.
-
-
- Petroleum
-
-In recent years production of petroleum has averaged about 78 million
-barrels each year, making Illinois the eighth largest petroleum
-producing state. The major oil area is the deep part of the Illinois
-Basin in the southcentral and southeastern parts of the state, but
-significant discoveries have been made recently in central and western
-Illinois. There are about 490 oil fields in Illinois, ranging from a few
-to several thousand acres in size.
-
-Oil has been discovered in rocks of the Pennsylvanian, Mississippian,
-Devonian, Silurian, and Ordovician Systems, but the Mississippian are
-the most productive and account for about 76 percent of our total oil
-production.
-
- [Illustration: Figure 8—Oil pools in Illinois as of January 1, 1961.
- The pools are concentrated mainly in the Illinois Basin and along
- the LaSalle Anticlinal Belt.]
-

-
- Coal
-
-Illinois ranks fourth in the nation among states that produce bituminous
-coal, the type of coal most widely mined in the United States. Coal is
-used by many manufacturing industries, by public utilities companies
-that burn coal to generate electricity, and by individuals for heating
-homes.
-
-All Illinois coal deposits are found in the Pennsylvanian System. Of the
-many coals, only a few are thick enough to be mined profitably. The coal
-is of bituminous rank, but it varies in quality. Illinois coal reserves
-in strata more than 28 inches thick are estimated at 137 billion tons
-and are larger than those of any other state.
-
-Around the edge of the coal basin where the coal lies at shallow depths,
-it is commonly mined in open pits (strip mines). However, in the past,
-most coal has been mined underground, and more than half of Illinois
-coal is still produced from such mines.
-
-
- Limestone and Dolomite
-
-There are two types of carbonate rocks in Illinois, limestone and
-dolomite. In appearance they are almost indistinguishable, although they
-are different chemically. Limestone is composed mainly of calcium
-carbonate (the mineral calcite), whereas dolomite is calcium magnesium
-carbonate (the mineral dolomite).
-
-Limestone deposits are found at many places in the western,
-southwestern, and southern marginal portions of the state. They are
-largely of Mississippian and Ordovician age. Lesser deposits of
-Pennsylvanian limestone are found in the central portion of the state.
-In the northern fifth of the state, dolomites of Silurian and Ordovician
-age are exposed at many places.
-
-Limestone and dolomite are quarried for a variety of uses, including
-aggregate for concrete, agricultural limestone, railroad ballast, chips
-for bituminous roads, and for use in metallurgical and chemical
-processes. They also are quarried for building stone at some places, and
-marble is produced in southern Illinois.
-
- [Illustration: Figure 10—Limestone and dolomite are quarried at many
- places, but fluorspar, zinc, and lead are produced in restricted
- mineralized areas.]
-
- KEY
- Quarry, Limestone or Dolomite
- Cement or Lime
- Fluorspar
- Zinc and Lead
-
-Limestone and shale or clay are burned together in kilns to produce
-portland cement. Portland cement is manufactured from a Pennsylvanian
-limestone in LaSalle County and from an Ordovician limestone in Lee
-County.
-
-Limestone or dolomite also is burned in kilns to make lime.
-Mississippian limestone is used in Adams County and Silurian dolomite is
-used in Cook County for lime making.
-
-
- Clay and Clay Products
-
-Illinois commercial clays are found in glacial, Cretaceous, Tertiary,
-and Pennsylvanian deposits. Pennsylvanian shales also are sources of
-clays. Glacial clays, which occur as loess (wind-blown materials),
-alluvial (water-deposited) sediments, and glacial till, are widespread
-in the state. Cretaceous and Tertiary clays, at the extreme southern tip
-of the state, are valuable for the manufacture of heat-resistant bricks
-and coatings and for floor-sweeping compounds.
-
-Pennsylvanian clays and shales are the most important source of clay for
-manufacturing such products as pottery, stoneware, drain tile, sewer
-pipe, flue tile, building tile, brick, and special heat-resistant
-fire-brick.
-
-
- Sand and Gravel
-
-Deposits of sand and gravel, found in many parts of Illinois, provide
-large quantities of material for concrete, railroad ballast, road
-gravel, building sand, molding sand, and other uses. Glacial deposits
-are the principal sources of sand and gravel, but in extreme southern
-Illinois where there is no glacial drift the main source of supply is
-Tertiary gravel and Devonian chert gravel.
-
- [Illustration: Figure 11—The clay industry is scattered widely in
- Illinois. Many manufacturing plants are located at the clay pits.]
-
- KEY
- Pit or Plant
-
-Almost every county has some sand and gravel, but the major areas of
-production are northeastern Illinois and some of the major rivers.
-Considerable tonnages of sand and gravel are dredged from bars in the
-channels of the Mississippi, Ohio, and Wabash Rivers.
-
-
- Silica Sand
-
-Silica sand is used in making glass, for sand blasting, as grinding
-sand, as molding sand for casting steel, and in the fracture treatment
-of oil wells to increase oil production. Some of the sand is finely
-pulverized into a powder that is used as a filler, a fine abrasive, as a
-ceramic material, and for many other purposes.
-
-This special sand, composed of grains of the mineral quartz (silica),
-comes from a sandstone of Ordovician age that is mined in LaSalle and
-Ogle Counties.
-
-
- Tripoli and Ganister
-
-Tripoli, or “amorphous” silica, is mined from Devonian rocks in
-Alexander County. The silica is finely ground for use as a polishing
-agent, as a filler, in buffing compounds, and for other purposes.
-
-Ganister, a granular material with a high silica content, also is mined
-in extreme southern Illinois. It is used in making products that can
-withstand high temperatures.
-
-
- Fluorspar
-
-For many years Illinois has led the nation in the production of
-fluorspar, accounting annually for about half the total United States
-output. The industry is centered in Hardin and Pope Counties where the
-deposits occur in veins and beds in rocks of the Mississippian System.
-Reserves of fluorspar are adequate to supply the industry for many
-years.
-
- [Illustration: Figure 12—Sand and gravel is produced at many places
- in the state. Silica sand is produced only from a sandstone in
- northern Illinois. Tripoli is found only in southern Illinois.]

-
-Fluorspar is used in the manufacture of hydrofluoric acid, as a flux in
-the manufacture of steel, in the refining of aluminum, for the
-manufacture of fluorine compounds used in a variety of products, in
-ceramic glazes, and for other special purposes.
-
-
- Lead and Zinc
-
-Lead and zinc are the only metallic minerals mined in Illinois. Deposits
-are found in Jo Daviess County in northwestern Illinois and in the
-fluorspar area of Hardin and Pope Counties in extreme southern Illinois.
-In northwestern Illinois the ore occurs in rocks of Ordovician age, but
-in southeastern Illinois it is associated with fluorspar in rocks of
-Mississippian age.
-
-Between 1820 and 1865, the mining area of which northwestern Illinois is
-a part was the nation’s principal producer of lead ore. In recent years
-production of zinc has increased and that of lead has decreased.
-
-
- Water Supplies
-
-Water, too, is a mineral resource, and our most necessary one. The
-source of nearly all water is rain and snow, which collect in lakes and
-streams or seep into the ground to form our two types of water
-supplies—surface water and ground water.
-
-Ground water in Illinois collects underground in deposits of sand and
-gravel or in the porous sandstone or limestone layers of bedrock. These
-rock materials are called “aquifers” because of their ability to hold
-water and to allow it to flow into wells that are drilled into them.
-
-The aquifers are not equally distributed throughout Illinois, so
-ground-water supplies are abundant in some parts of the state but are
-scarce in others. Some Illinois cities depend wholly or partly on
-surface supplies from lakes and rivers.
-
-The sand and gravel aquifers yield more ground water than any others in
-Illinois. The major sand and gravel aquifers were deposited by streams
-and lie along river valleys. Some of these river valleys are no longer
-visible to us because they were buried by glacial drift. They are
-recognized, however, from well records or drilling records.
-
-The northern third of Illinois has the most abundant supplies of ground
-water. Bedrock formations of Devonian through Cambrian age are favorable
-aquifers and supply drinkable (potable) water at depths of from 200 to
-2,000 feet. These formations, however, lie much deeper in the Illinois
-Basin, where the water they furnish is too salty for most uses.
-
-West of the Illinois River and at the southern tip of the state, the
-Mississippian, Devonian, and Silurian limestones are the chief aquifers.
-Their yield, however, is small.
-
-In the Illinois Basin all these formations are overlain by Pennsylvanian
-rocks which offer only small, scattered supplies of ground water.
-
-
-
-
- ILLINOIS STATE GEOLOGICAL SURVEY
-
-
-A city or farmer needs a new water supply. Where can suitable
-water-bearing formations be found? A new limestone quarry is considered.
-Where are the most suitable limestone deposits? A coal mine is being
-planned. How deep must a shaft be sunk to reach the nearest minable coal
-and what will the mining conditions be? A land owner has a clay deposit
-on his land. What uses can be made of it? A road is to be constructed.
-Are sand and gravel or limestone deposits available nearby for
-construction materials? A farmer wants to know whether there might be
-oil on his property. Are oil-bearing structures present and, if so, at
-what depth?
-
-These are typical questions brought to the Illinois State Geological
-Survey by the industries and people of Illinois. From its accumulated
-store of information and experience, the Survey provides answers. This
-storehouse of knowledge is the result of the Survey’s continuous program
-of geologic exploration, mapping, research, and organization and
-interpretation of data.
-
-The Survey explores and maps the geology and mineral resources of the
-state, does research to find new and improved uses for our mineral
-resources, and organizes and interprets basic geologic information
-gathered from well logs, rock samples, and field studies, putting them
-all into usable form.
-
-Such knowledge is shared with the public through publications, maps,
-lectures, and personal consultations with industries, drillers,
-engineers, land owners, teachers, and others in need of geologic
-information.
-
-The discovery of facts about the rich mineral resources of Illinois has,
-in effect, only begun, and it is the task of the Geological Survey to
-continue to collect and apply new information so that our resources can
-be used to the best advantage.
-
-
-
-
- EDUCATIONAL EXTENSION PROGRAM
-
-
-The Educational Extension Section of the Geological Survey conducts six
-field trips each year, in various parts of the state, for teachers,
-students, and laymen. It also assembles and distributes rock and mineral
-collections for Illinois educational groups, gives lectures, prepares
-exhibits, and identifies rocks and minerals for the public.
-
-
-Educational Extension publications, such as this book, are simplified
-discussions of geological subjects. Available for 25 cents each, these
-include:
-
- Educational Series 4: Guide for Beginning Fossil Hunters, by Charles
- W. Collinson.
- Educational Series 5: Guide to Rocks and Minerals of Illinois.
- Educational Series 6: Field Book of Pennsylvanian Plant Fossils of
- Illinois, by Charles Collinson and Romayne Skartvedt.
-
-Many technical discussions of the various phases of Illinois geology
-also are published by the Geological Survey. Regional reports on the
-geology and mineral resources of some areas are available in many school
-and public libraries or they may be purchased from the Survey. Some of
-the regional reports include:
-
- Beardstown, Glasford, Havana, and Vermont Quadrangles, Bulletin 82,
- $1.00.
- Buda Quadrangle, Circular 275, no charge.
- Carlinville Quadrangle, Bulletin 77, $1.00
- Chicago Region, Bulletin 65, Part 1, 50 cents.
- Marseilles, Ottawa, and Streator Quadrangles, Bulletin 66, $1.00.
-
-“Mineral Production in Illinois in 1959,” Circular 300 (no charge), is
-one of a series of annual economic summaries. “Caves of Illinois,”
-Report of Investigations 215, price 50 cents, will be available by
-September 1961.

-including legal fees, that arise directly or indirectly from any of
-the following which you do or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this
-or any Project Gutenberg-tm work, (b) alteration, modification, or
-additions or deletions to any Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any
-Defect you cause.
-
-Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
-electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
-computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It
-exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations
-from people in all walks of life.
-
-Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
-assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
-goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
-remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
-and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future
-generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see
-Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at
-www.gutenberg.org
-
-Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation
-
-The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non-profit
-501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
-state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
-Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
-number is 64-6221541. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent permitted by
-U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.
-
-The Foundation's business office is located at 809 North 1500 West,
-Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887. Email contact links and up
-to date contact information can be found at the Foundation's website
-and official page at www.gutenberg.org/contact
-
-Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
-Literary Archive Foundation
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without
-widespread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
-increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
-freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the widest
-array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
-($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
-status with the IRS.
-
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
-States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
-where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
-DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular
-state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
-have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
-against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
-approach us with offers to donate.
-
-International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
-any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
-outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
-
-Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current donation
-methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
-ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
-donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works
-
-Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
-Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be
-freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
-distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of
-volunteer support.
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
-the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
-necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
-edition.
-
-Most people start at our website which has the main PG search
-facility: www.gutenberg.org
-
-This website includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
-including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
-subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

-<p>Although the age of the Earth is measured in
-billions of years, the face of Illinois is young&mdash;a
-mere 15,000 years old.</p>
-<p>During the Ice Age, most of Illinois was repeatedly
-invaded by huge glaciers, sometimes towering
-a mile or more high, that carried embedded in them ground
-up rock materials they had gouged out of the bedrock to
-the north as they ponderously pushed south.</p>
-<p>When the last of the glaciers melted from Illinois,
-about 15,000 years ago, the country that emerged looked
-far different from the preglacial land. Old hills and valleys
-had vanished, new ones had formed, and a mantle
-of unconsolidated rock material, the burden carried by
-the ice and dropped as the ice melted, lay over most of
-the region.</p>
-<p>Most of this material, called glacial drift, was
-brought in by the ice during the last two of the four major
-periods of glaciation&mdash;the Illinoian period 100,000 to
-150,000 years ago and the Wisconsinan 5,000 to 50,000
-years ago. The older drift introduced during the Kansan
-and Nebraskan glacial periods is almost entirely buried
-beneath the later drifts.</p>
-<p>The glaciers covered all of Illinois except the northwestern
-corner, the southwestern edge along the Mississippi
-River, and extreme southern Illinois, as shown in
-<a href="#fig1">figure 1</a>. In those areas the land is much as it was before
-the glaciers came. In the glaciated portion of the
-state, however, the bedrock generally is covered by the
-rock debris the ice carried from as far away as Canada.
-<span class="pb" id="Page_4">4</span>
-As the fringes of the ice
-melted, these loads of rock
-material were, in some
-places, dumped as ridges
-(moraines) which are the
-hills and mounds on the
-flat prairies of the present
-landscape. Such material
-also filled ancient
-river valleys, but new
-valleys were cut by torrents
-of water released
-by the melting ice.</p>

-<dt>KANSAN GLACIAL DRIFT</dt>
-<dt>ILLINOIAN GLACIAL DRIFT</dt></dl>
-<p>The glacial drift belongs
-to the youngest
-(topmost layer) of the major
-divisions of our rocks,
-which geologists have
-named the Pleistocene
-(scientific name for Ice
-Age deposits).</p>
-<p>Most of the drift is an unsorted mixture of
-clay, pebbles, and
-boulders called &ldquo;till,&rdquo;
-but some glacial deposits consist of water-sorted
-sand and gravel carried and deposited by meltwater from
-the glaciers. Other materials were deposited by the
-wind&mdash;sand was piled into shifting dunes and fine silts
-were spread like a blanket over the land. This mantle of
-silt is called loess.</p>
-<p>The glacial deposits contain a wide variety of rocks,
-some brought from regions to the north, others scoured
-from the layers of native rock in Illinois.</p>
-<p>The limits of the Illinoian, the Wisconsinan, and the
-Kansan glaciations are shown in <a href="#fig1">figure 1</a>. Some of the
-more prominent moraines are sketched with dark gray
-<span class="pb" id="Page_5">5</span>
-lines on <a href="#fig13">plate 1</a>. Within this area, glacial drift covers
-the bedrock except along valleys where streams have cut
-through and removed it.</p>
-<h3 id="c2">BEDROCK GEOLOGY</h3>
-<p>Beneath the glacial drift of Illinois many layers of
-rocks overlie a base of ancient crystalline rocks that in
-Illinois occur at depths of 2,000 to as much as 15,000
-feet. The geologic map (<a href="#fig13">plate 1</a>, in pocket) is drawn as
-if the mantle of glacial drift had been removed to expose
-the layers of bedrock, which are largely limestone, shale,
-and sandstone.</p>
-<p>The key on the map shows the age sequence of the
-rocks, arranged with the youngest at the top, and gives
-the names that geologists have assigned to the various
-systems of rocks. Each system consists of rocks that
-were deposited during a long period of time. The complete
-sequence of rocks might be likened to a book of
-earth history, and each system likened to a chapter.
-Systems are divided into formations, which might be regarded
-as pages in the book.</p>
-<p>As shown on the generalized rock column in <a href="#fig2">figure 2</a>,
-the rocks next older than the glacial drift (Pleistocene)
-are the Tertiary and Cretaceous sands, gravels, and
-clays, mostly unconsolidated. They occur only at the
-extreme southern tip of Illinois and were deposited when
-that area was covered by a northward extension of the
-Gulf of Mexico. The Tertiary rocks are shown on the map
-in grayed pink (T) and the Cretaceous in red-violet (K).</p>
-<p>Next older than the Cretaceous are the Pennsylvanian
-rocks, named for the state of Pennsylvania where
-they are well exposed and were first studied.</p>
-<p>The Pennsylvanian System is divided into two areas
-on the map (P&sup1; and P&sup2;). The rocks shown in lightest gray
-(P&sup2;) lie above the No. 6 Coal in the sequence and those
-in medium gray (P&sup1;) lie below it. The No. 6 Coal is one
-of the thickest, most valuable coals in the state. Pennsylvanian
-rocks occur under the glacial drift, and their
-thickness ranges from a few feet to as much as 3,000
-feet.</p>

-<p>The Pennsylvanian System contains many different
-kinds of rocks, including all of our minable coals. It
-also contains important deposits of limestone, shale,
-and clay, and at places oil and gas.</p>
-<p>Next below the Pennsylvanian are the rocks of the
-Mississippian System, shown in blue on the map (M&sup1; and
-M&sup2;). The lower and middle Mississippian rocks (M&sup1;) are
-largely limestone in and near the areas mapped, but in
-the central and eastern part of the state where they are
-buried under Pennsylvanian rocks they contain much siltstone
-and cherty limestone. The upper Mississippian
-rocks (M&sup2;) consist of a succession of sandstone, shale,
-and limestone formations.</p>
-<p>This system of rocks takes its name from the Mississippi
-River because there are excellent exposures of
-these strata along the Mississippi Valley in western Illinois,
-southeastern Iowa, and eastern Missouri.</p>
-<p>The Mississippian rocks are a source of limestone,
-fluorspar, zinc, and ganister, and are of greatest economic
-significance in southeastern Illinois where they
-are the most important of our oil-producing rocks.</p>
-<p>The Devonian (D, dark gray on the map), Silurian,
-(S, violet), Ordovician (O, light pink), and Cambrian (C,
-deep pink) rocks, in the order named, are older than the
-Mississippian strata. In general, they include dolomite,
-limestone, shale, and sandstone. Except for small areas
-along the Mississippi and Illinois River Valleys, these
-older rocks are found at the surface only in the northern
-quarter of the state and locally in Alexander, Hardin,
-Jackson, Monroe, Pike, and Union Counties. They are
-nevertheless economically important because they yield
-limestone, dolomite, silica sand, oil, zinc and lead,
-tripoli, novaculite, and novaculite gravel.</p>
-<div class="pb" id="Page_8">8</div>
-<p>The rocks of the Cambrian through Pennsylvanian
-Systems belong to the Paleozoic Era. The Paleozoic rocks
-overlie crystalline rocks, such as granites, that extend
-to unknown depths in the crust of the earth. The crystalline
-rocks are not exposed in Illinois but are encountered
-in the drilling of some deep wells and may be seen in the
-nearby Missouri Ozarks and in central Wisconsin.</p>
-<h3 id="c3">STRUCTURAL GEOLOGY</h3>
-<p>The rock formations appear to lie flat in most of Illinois,
-but they are slightly inclined in most places. In
-some areas they are down-warped into basins and troughs
-(synclines), upfolded into domes and arches (anticlines),
-or broken by faults.</p>
-<p>The largest structural feature in Illinois is a great
-spoon-shaped basin&mdash;the Illinois Basin&mdash;that extends
-southeastward into Indiana and Kentucky. The deepest
-part of the basin is in southeastern Illinois.</p>
-<div class="img" id="fig3">

-</div>
-<p>Because the
-entire region,
-including the basin,
-has been
-eroded by rain,
-ice, wind, and
-many rivers and
-streams, the
-youngest Paleozoic
-rocks (top-most
-layers) are
-preserved only in
-the middle of the basin,
-as shown in figures
-<a href="#fig3">3</a>, <a href="#fig6">6</a>, and <a href="#fig7">7</a>. This is why the map shows the coal-bearing
-rocks of Pennsylvanian age in the center of the
-state and the older rocks cropping out in successive
-bands around the margins of the basin in southern, western,
-and northern Illinois.</p>
-<div class="pb" id="Page_9">9</div>
-<p>Distribution

-is influenced by
-a broad upfold or

-map (<a href="#fig13">plate 1</a>)
-shows the older
-rocks (Cambrian
-and Ordovician)
-exposed at the
-center of the arch and surrounded by younger Silurian and
-Devonian rocks. Another elongated upfold (anticlinal
-belt) extends from the vicinity of Dixon southeastward
-into Indiana. The crest of the upfold is indicated on the
-map by patches of Silurian and Devonian rocks in Champaign
-and Douglas Counties.</p>

-<p>In extreme southern Illinois and in north-central Illinois,
-the rock layers are broken by great faults (see
-figures <a href="#fig5">5</a> and <a href="#fig6">6</a>) which displace the layers of rocks by

-<h3 id="c4">HISTORICAL GEOLOGY</h3>
-<p>Reading the history of the earth&rsquo;s crust is like reading
-a mystery story. The geologist must examine, or
-read, each rock layer, from the youngest at the top to
-the oldest at the bottom, searching for clues to its origin,
-age, and development from which he can reconstruct
-the past.</p>
-<p>One of the clues to the past is the fossil remains of
-plants and animals found in the rocks. For instance, if
-a certain coral is known to have lived only during one
-span of time, all rocks containing that coral fossil must
-have been formed within that span.</p>
-<p>Records of wells (well logs) and rock cores or samples
-collected when test holes are drilled into the bedrock
-also reveal much about the sequence of rock strata
-beneath the surface. The kinds of rocks encountered
-tell, in addition, something about ancient geography, for
-<span class="pb" id="Page_12">12</span>
-some were formed on land and others were deposited in
-long-departed seas.</p>
-<p>Such knowledge is extremely important in finding
-and developing mineral resources such as coal and oil.</p>
-<h3 id="c5">ECONOMIC GEOLOGY</h3>
-<p>Minerals produced commercially in Illinois include
-crude oil, coal, limestone, dolomite, clay, sand, gravel,
-fluorspar, tripoli, ganister, novaculite gravel, silica
-sand, and the metals zinc and lead. The distribution of
-mineral industries, shown in the several maps of figures
-<a href="#fig8">8</a> through <a href="#fig12">12</a>, is, of course, related to the distribution
-of the rocks (<a href="#fig13">plate 1</a>). For example, the coal mines are
-scattered along the margin of the area of Pennsylvanian
-rocks where the coals are at relatively shallow depths.</p>
-<p>The mineral fuels, coal and petroleum, are the leading
-mineral products of Illinois, making up about 70 percent
-of the annual value of all minerals produced in the
-state. For many years coal was at the top of the list,
-but petroleum now holds first place.</p>
-<h3 id="c6">Petroleum</h3>
-<p>In recent years production of petroleum has averaged
-about 78 million barrels each year, making Illinois the
-eighth largest petroleum producing state. The major oil
-area is the deep part of the Illinois Basin in the southcentral
-and southeastern parts of the state, but significant
-discoveries have been made recently in central and
-western Illinois. There are about 490 oil fields in Illinois,
-ranging from a few to several thousand acres in
-size.</p>
-<p>Oil has been discovered in rocks of the Pennsylvanian,
-Mississippian, Devonian, Silurian, and Ordovician
-Systems, but the Mississippian are the most productive
-and account for about 76 percent of our total oil production.</p>

-<h3 id="c7">Coal</h3>
-<p>Illinois ranks fourth in the nation among states that
-produce bituminous coal, the type of coal most widely
-mined in the United States. Coal is used by many manufacturing
-industries, by public utilities companies that
-burn coal to generate electricity, and by individuals for
-heating homes.</p>
-<p>All Illinois coal deposits are found in the Pennsylvanian
-System. Of the many coals, only a few are thick
-enough to be mined profitably. The coal is of bituminous
-rank, but it varies in quality. Illinois coal reserves in
-strata more than 28 inches thick are estimated at 137
-billion tons and are larger than those of any other state.</p>
-<p>Around the edge of the coal basin where the coal
-lies at shallow depths, it is commonly mined in open pits
-(strip mines). However, in the past, most coal has been
-mined underground, and more than half of Illinois coal is
-still produced from such mines.</p>
-<h3 id="c8">Limestone and Dolomite</h3>
-<p>There are two types of carbonate rocks in Illinois,
-limestone and dolomite. In appearance they are almost
-indistinguishable, although they are different chemically.
-Limestone is composed mainly of calcium carbonate
-(the mineral calcite), whereas dolomite is calcium magnesium
-carbonate (the mineral dolomite).</p>
-<p>Limestone deposits are found at many places in the
-western, southwestern, and southern marginal portions
-of the state. They are largely of Mississippian and Ordovician
-age. Lesser deposits of Pennsylvanian limestone
-are found in the central portion of the state. In
-the northern fifth of the state, dolomites of Silurian and
-Ordovician age are exposed at many places.</p>
-<p>Limestone and dolomite are quarried for a variety of
-uses, including aggregate for concrete, agricultural limestone,
-railroad ballast, chips for bituminous roads, and
-for use in metallurgical and chemical processes. They
-also are quarried for building stone at some places, and
-marble is produced in southern Illinois.</p>
-<div class="pb" id="Page_16">16</div>

-<img src="images/p09.jpg" alt="" width="571" height="1001" />

-<p>Limestone and shale or clay are burned together in
-kilns to produce portland cement. Portland cement is
-manufactured from a Pennsylvanian limestone in LaSalle
-County and from an Ordovician limestone in Lee County.</p>
-<p>Limestone or dolomite also is burned in kilns to
-make lime. Mississippian limestone is used in Adams
-County and Silurian dolomite is used in Cook County for
-lime making.</p>
-<h3 id="c9">Clay and Clay Products</h3>
-<p>Illinois commercial clays are found in glacial, Cretaceous,
-Tertiary, and Pennsylvanian deposits. Pennsylvanian
-shales also are sources of clays. Glacial
-clays, which occur as loess (wind-blown materials),
-alluvial (water-deposited) sediments, and glacial till,
-are widespread in the state. Cretaceous and Tertiary
-clays, at the extreme southern tip of the state, are valuable
-for the manufacture of heat-resistant bricks and
-coatings and for floor-sweeping compounds.</p>
-<p>Pennsylvanian clays and shales are the most important
-source of clay for manufacturing such products
-as pottery, stoneware, drain tile, sewer pipe, flue tile,
-building tile, brick, and special heat-resistant fire-brick.</p>
-<h3 id="c10">Sand and Gravel</h3>
-<p>Deposits of sand and gravel, found in many parts
-of Illinois, provide large quantities of material for concrete,
-railroad ballast, road gravel, building sand, molding
-sand, and other uses. Glacial deposits are the principal
-sources of sand and gravel, but in extreme southern
-Illinois where there is no glacial drift the main source
-of supply is Tertiary gravel and Devonian chert gravel.</p>
-<div class="pb" id="Page_18">18</div>

-<div class="pb" id="Page_19">19</div>
-<p>Almost every county has some sand and gravel, but
-the major areas of production are northeastern Illinois
-and some of the major rivers. Considerable tonnages of
-sand and gravel are dredged from bars in the channels of
-the Mississippi, Ohio, and Wabash Rivers.</p>
-<h3 id="c11">Silica Sand</h3>
-<p>Silica sand is used in making glass, for sand blasting,
-as grinding sand, as molding sand for casting steel,
-and in the fracture treatment of oil wells to increase oil
-production. Some of the sand is finely pulverized into a
-powder that is used as a filler, a fine abrasive, as a
-ceramic material, and for many other purposes.</p>
-<p>This special sand, composed of grains of the mineral
-quartz (silica), comes from a sandstone of Ordovician
-age that is mined in LaSalle and Ogle Counties.</p>
-<h3 id="c12">Tripoli and Ganister</h3>
-<p>Tripoli, or &ldquo;amorphous&rdquo; silica, is mined from Devonian
-rocks in Alexander County. The silica is finely
-ground for use as a polishing agent, as a filler, in buffing
-compounds, and for other purposes.</p>
-<p>Ganister, a granular material with a high silica content,
-also is mined in extreme southern Illinois. It is
-used in making products that can withstand high temperatures.</p>
-<h3 id="c13">Fluorspar</h3>
-<p>For many years Illinois has led the nation in the
-production of fluorspar, accounting annually for about
-half the total United States output. The industry is centered
-in Hardin and Pope Counties where the deposits
-occur in veins and beds in rocks of the Mississippian
-System. Reserves of fluorspar are adequate to supply
-the industry for many years.</p>
-<div class="pb" id="Page_20">20</div>

-<p>Fluorspar is used in the manufacture of hydrofluoric
-acid, as a flux in the manufacture of steel, in the refining
-of aluminum, for the manufacture of fluorine compounds
-used in a variety of products, in ceramic glazes,
-and for other special purposes.</p>
-<h3 id="c14">Lead and Zinc</h3>
-<p>Lead and zinc are the only metallic minerals mined
-in Illinois. Deposits are found in Jo Daviess County in
-northwestern Illinois and in the fluorspar area of Hardin
-and Pope Counties in extreme southern Illinois. In northwestern
-Illinois the ore occurs in rocks of Ordovician
-age, but in southeastern Illinois it is associated with
-fluorspar in rocks of Mississippian age.</p>
-<p>Between 1820 and 1865, the mining area of which
-northwestern Illinois is a part was the nation&rsquo;s principal
-producer of lead ore. In recent years production of zinc
-has increased and that of lead has decreased.</p>
-<h3 id="c15">Water Supplies</h3>
-<p>Water, too, is a mineral resource, and our most necessary
-one. The source of nearly all water is rain and
-snow, which collect in lakes and streams or seep into
-the ground to form our two types of water supplies&mdash;surface
-water and ground water.</p>
-<p>Ground water in Illinois collects underground in deposits
-of sand and gravel or in the porous sandstone or
-limestone layers of bedrock. These rock materials are
-called &ldquo;aquifers&rdquo; because of their ability to hold water
-and to allow it to flow into wells that are drilled into
-them.</p>
-<div class="pb" id="Page_22">22</div>
-<p>The aquifers are not equally distributed throughout
-Illinois, so ground-water supplies are abundant in some
-parts of the state but are scarce in others. Some Illinois
-cities depend wholly or partly on surface supplies
-from lakes and rivers.</p>
-<p>The sand and gravel aquifers yield more ground water
-than any others in Illinois. The major sand and gravel
-aquifers were deposited by streams and lie along river
-valleys. Some of these river valleys are no longer visible
-to us because they were buried by glacial drift. They
-are recognized, however, from well records or drilling
-records.</p>
-<p>The northern third of Illinois has the most abundant
-supplies of ground water. Bedrock formations of Devonian
-through Cambrian age are favorable aquifers and
-supply drinkable (potable) water at depths of from 200 to
-2,000 feet. These formations, however, lie much deeper
-in the Illinois Basin, where the water they furnish is too
-salty for most uses.</p>
-<p>West of the Illinois River and at the southern tip of
-the state, the Mississippian, Devonian, and Silurian
-limestones are the chief aquifers. Their yield, however,
-is small.</p>
-<p>In the Illinois Basin all these formations are overlain
-by Pennsylvanian rocks which offer only small, scattered
-supplies of ground water.</p>
-<h2 id="c16"><span class="small">ILLINOIS STATE GEOLOGICAL SURVEY</span></h2>
-<p>A city or farmer needs a new water supply. Where
-can suitable water-bearing formations be found? A new
-limestone quarry is considered. Where are the most suitable
-limestone deposits? A coal mine is being planned.
-How deep must a shaft be sunk to reach the nearest minable
-coal and what will the mining conditions be? A land
-owner has a clay deposit on his land. What uses can be
-made of it? A road is to be constructed. Are sand and
-gravel or limestone deposits available nearby for construction
-materials? A farmer wants to know whether
-<span class="pb" id="Page_23">23</span>
-there might be oil on his property. Are oil-bearing structures
-present and, if so, at what depth?</p>
-<p>These are typical questions brought to the Illinois
-State Geological Survey by the industries and people of
-Illinois. From its accumulated store of information and
-experience, the Survey provides answers. This storehouse
-of knowledge is the result of the Survey&rsquo;s continuous
-program of geologic exploration, mapping, research,
-and organization and interpretation of data.</p>
-<p>The Survey explores and maps the geology and mineral

-1.A. By reading or using any part of this Project Gutenberg&#8482;

-and accept all the terms of this license and intellectual property
-(trademark/copyright) agreement. If you do not agree to abide by all

-1.B. &#8220;Project Gutenberg&#8221; is a registered trademark. It may only be
-used on or associated in any way with an electronic work by people who
-agree to be bound by the terms of this agreement. There are a few
-things that you can do with most Project Gutenberg&#8482; electronic works
-even without complying with the full terms of this agreement. See
-paragraph 1.C below. There are a lot of things you can do with Project
-Gutenberg&#8482; electronic works if you follow the terms of this
-agreement and help preserve free future access to Project Gutenberg&#8482;
-electronic works. See paragraph 1.E below.
-</div>

-<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
-1.C. The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation (&#8220;the
-Foundation&#8221; or PGLAF), owns a compilation copyright in the collection
-of Project Gutenberg&#8482; electronic works. Nearly all the individual
-works in the collection are in the public domain in the United
-States. If an individual work is unprotected by copyright law in the
-United States and you are located in the United States, we do not
-claim a right to prevent you from copying, distributing, performing,
-displaying or creating derivative works based on the work as long as
-all references to Project Gutenberg are removed. Of course, we hope
-that you will support the Project Gutenberg&#8482; mission of promoting
-free access to electronic works by freely sharing Project Gutenberg&#8482;
-works in compliance with the terms of this agreement for keeping the
-Project Gutenberg&#8482; name associated with the work. You can easily
-comply with the terms of this agreement by keeping this work in the
-same format with its attached full Project Gutenberg&#8482; License when
-you share it without charge with others.
-</div>
-
-<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
-1.D. The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern
-what you can do with this work. Copyright laws in most countries are
-in a constant state of change. If you are outside the United States,
-check the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this
-agreement before downloading, copying, displaying, performing,
-distributing or creating derivative works based on this work or any
-other Project Gutenberg&#8482; work. The Foundation makes no
-representations concerning the copyright status of any work in any
-country other than the United States.

-
-<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
-Project Gutenberg&#8482; depends upon and cannot survive without widespread
-public support and donations to carry out its mission of
-increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
-freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the widest
-array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
-($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
-status with the IRS.
-</div>
-
-<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
-States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
-where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
-DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular state
-visit <a href="https://www.gutenberg.org/donate/">www.gutenberg.org/donate</a>.

-Project Gutenberg&#8482; eBooks are often created from several printed
