Summary[edit]

Description

The Vinton Member is the uppermost of four stratigraphic units in the Mississippian-aged, siliciclastics-dominated Logan Formation of eastern Ohio. Ascending from the base, they are the Berne Conglomerate Member, the Byer Sandstone Member, the Allensville Member, and the Vinton Member. The Vinton is dominated by sandstones, siltstones, and shales deposited in relatively shallow marine facies.

The rusty brown material is ferruginous siliciclastics with fossils (mostly brachiopods).

Stratigraphy: Vinton Member, upper Logan Formation, Osagean Stage, upper Lower Mississippian
