Description
The above authors, using sparse subsurface data on the Herrin Coal Member, defined the Irishtown Anticline as a broad and subtle antidinal nose that trends east-northeast. Structure maps on deeper horizons do not indicate an antidinal structure in this area. The nose mapped on the coal, if it exists, does not merit naming; therefore, use of the name Irishtown Anticline should be discontinued.
