Description

Deer Lick Dome, as defined by Rubey (1952), is a local area of closure along the Lincoln Anticline, immediately north of the Cap Au Grès Faulted Flexure. As contoured on the top of the Chouteau Limestone (lower Mississippian), the dome is about 0.8 miles (1.3 km) long and 0.3 miles (0.5 km) wide; it has at least 50 feet (15 m) of closure.
