Bloating characteristics of East Texas clays Bloating characteristics of East Texas clays 1965

Incidence of bloating among approximately 600 clay samples from East Texas, ranging in age from Gulfian (Late Cretaceous) to Recent, correlates principally with clay mineralogy-and pH--together an indication of bulk composition--and to a lesser extent with texture, loss on ignition, and content o

Observations from the east Texas seismic network (June 1981 - August 1982) Observations from the east Texas seismic network (June 1981 - August 1982) 1984

Several microearthquake recording stations were operated as a network in the East Texas Basin beginning in June 1981. At least six certain and two probable earthquakes as well as hundreds of events of undetermined origin were recorded through August 1982.
