Summary[edit]

Description
Deutsch: Verbreitung des mitteldevonischen Marcellus Shale im Nordosten der USA (Appalachenbecken) mit Verzeichnung der Tiefenlage der Dachfläche (engl. „Top“) der Formation (Angaben in Fuß bzgl. Meeresspiegelniveau). Wie der Karte zu entnehmen ist, liegt der weit überwiegende Teil der Formation unterhalb der Tagesoberfläche, mit Tiefenmaxima von mehr als 6000 ft (> 1800 m) nahe der Alleghenischen Front. Letztgenannte ist zudem annähernd deckungsgleich mit der östlichen Grenze des „Marcellus shale gas play“.
English: Geographic extent of the Middle Devonian Marcellus Shale in the northeastern U.S. (Appalachian Basin) with indication of the depth of the top surface of the formation (given in feet relative to sea level). As it is obvious from the map, the by far greater portion of the formation lies deep below the surface, reaching maximum depths of more than 6000 ft near the Allegheny Front. The latter is also approximately congruent with the eastern margin of the Marcellus shale gas play.
