Residuum or material in place but modified somewhat by weathering, though little if any part as been removed. Dr. E.A. Smith believes that much of the iron cementation shown in railway cuts has occurred since the cuts were made, but some is apparently much older, perhaps Pliocene. The residuum seems to contain material brought to it in solution and in form of minute particles by the way of pores, from the strata removed in the Pliocene and other epochs. Tuscaloosa formation 5 miles east of Tuscaloosa. Tuscaloosa County, Alabama. May 27, 1915. Published as plate 56-A in U.S. Geological Survey Professional Paper 108. 1918.

thumbnail
Martaban pit of the Tennessee Coal, Iron & Railroad Company. Southwest side of cut opposite exposures shown in images 1497 to 1500 showing small faulted blocks of Tuscaloosa sand. The faulting is best shown by the differences in color of the sand. The faulting may have been due to movement of the beds or to slumping above a solution channel in Conasauga limestone. A gully eroded in the sand has directed iron- bearing waters downward forming trough-shaped incrustations of sandy limonite, some of which run continuously through the faulted blocks and are later than the faulting. Tuscaloosa County, Alabama. December 8, 1929.

No date.

Martaban pit of the Tennessee Coal, Iron & Railroad Company. Cut on southeast side of pit showing limonite below cover of Tuscaloosa sand and clay. Limonite pitches toward right following contour of buried mass of Conasauga limestone indicated by mass of black clay just above water level at right of center. Old pit contains water probably to depth of 25 feet or more, and at the right of view (southwest) the stripping has become so thick, probably reaching 40 to 50 feet, that mining has been discontinued. Tuscaloosa County, Alabama. December 8, 1929.
