Permian 252.17 - 298.9 Ma ID: 2895919 | Hennessey Group Age: Permian (252.17 - 298.9 Ma) Stratigraphic Name: Hennessey Group Description: CLINTON- Reddish-brown shale with some thin, greenish-gray siltstone and orange-brown sandstone and siltstone beds; thickness, about 500 feet. The "Hennessey Group" is not subdivided in the southern part of the Clinton quadrangle; in the northeastern corner of the quadrangle, the upper part of the "Bison Formation," Pbi, is exposed as orange-brown and greenish-gray, fine-grained sandstone and siltstone. The Bison is gradational southward into reddish-brown shale; it thins southward and is about 120 feet thick. LAWTON- "Hennessey Group," Phy, reddish-brown to gray shale with some tan sandstones, 130 to 200 feet (40 to 60 m) thick (locally unconformable on Cambrian igneous rocks). Comments: Named from town of Hennessey, northern Kingfisher Co, OK, (Aurin and others, 1926). in the Anadarko basin. The shales of the Hennessey are rarely fissile or laminated; instead they are more commonly blocky and break with a conchoidal fracture with the appearance of "joint clay." Characterized by numerous bands or streaks which are white or light green in color varying in thickness from a few inches to 4+ ft. (S. Oklahoma folded belt province).
