Goddard Shale (OKMg;0)

State	Oklahoma
Name	Goddard Shale
Geologic age	Late Mississippian
Lithologic constituents	Major Sedimentary > Clastic > Mudstone > Shale (Bed) Minor Sedimentary > Clastic > Sandstone (Bed)
Comments	Type locality listed as on Goddard ranch in secs 17, 18, 19, and 20, T3S, R4E, Johnston Co, OK in S. Oklahoma folded belt province. In measured type section, lower part 1,189 ft thick is gray to black shale with limonitic concretions with pelecypods and ammonoids, and upper part 1,671 ft thick is mostly a covered interval--gray shale with ferruginous concretions. (Elias, 1956).
