Report Title: Shallow halite deposits in the Flowerpot Shale in southwestern Oklahoma
Report Number: Professional Paper 450-E
Author: Porter E. Ward
Abstract
An investigation of the source of salt contributing to mineralization
of the Arkansas and Red Rivers indicated that shallow deposits of
halite in the Flowerpot Shale of Permian age were associated with salt
springs (Ward, 1960, 1961). This paper summarizes the result of the
Red River in Beckham and Harmon Counties, Okla.
