Regional structural cross sections, mid-Permian to Quaternary strata, Texas panhandle and eastern New Mexico: distribution of evaporites and areas of evaporite dissolution and collapse Regional structural cross sections, mid-Permian to Quaternary strata, Texas panhandle and eastern New Mexico: distribution of evaporites and areas of evaporite dissolution and collapse 1988

The Palo Duro Basin of the Texas Panhandle and eastern New Mexico contains bedded Permian salts of sufficient thickness and depth for the basin to be considered as a potential site for long-term storage and isolation of high-level nuclear waste.
