Abstract
The larger structural features of Mississippi include: the Issaquena-Sharkey Platform, an eastern extension of the Monroe-Richland uplift, the salt basin, the Jackson structure, and the George and Stone County high. Sediments that crop out in Mississippi or that have been reached by drilling wells range in age from Ordovician to Recent. The general stratigraphy of the post-Paleozoic beds is herein discussed. The extensive truncation of the Comanche series with the overlap of the Gulf series is not as noticeable in Mississippi as it is in South Arkansas and Louisiana. Apparently the beds of the Upper and Lower Cretaceous are more nearly parallel in Mississippi. A structure map and several cross sections are presented. End_of_Article - Last_Page 929------------
