They were deposited from the Appalachian Mountains westward far beyond the Rocky Mountains. Outcrops of the Mississippian rocks occupy large areas in Iowa, Missouri, Oklahoma, and other states and underlie adjoining areas. A procedure was developed for determining the pyritic sulfur content of the products from physical coal separation processes on the basis of their total sulfur and ash analyses. By assuming that the organic sulfur content in the combustible material in a given coal is constant, a linear relationship was obtained among the pyritic sulfur, total ...The pyritic black shale facies is interpreted as being deposited in a brackish water, coastal marsh or swamp environment.
