Savanna Formation (Pennsylvanian) – The Formation consists of dark gray shale and silty shale, with minor amounts of light-gray siltstone and gray very fine to fine sandstone. In this unit a few plant and invertebrate fossils may be found. This unit is about 1600 feet thick and was deposited in a fluvial environment.
McAlister Formation (Pennsylvanian) – The Formation consistsof gray to black shale, tan to gray, thin-bedded sandstone, with a few coal beds. Plant and invertebrate fossils may be found from several horizons in the unit, which is 500 to 2300 feet thick. The unit was deposited in a fluvial environment.
Middle Atoka Formation (Pennsylvanian) – The Formationconsists of marine tan to gray silty sandstone and grayish-black shale. Only in the Arkansas Valley and Frontal OuachitaMountain provinces is this formation split into the upper, middle, and lower members. The Atoka Formation has athickness of about 25,000 feet.
Lower Atoka (Pennsylvanian) The lower Atoka is a sequence of marine, mostly tan to gray silty sandstones and grayish-black shales. Some rare calcareous beds and siliceous shales areknown. This unit has the largest areal extent of any of thePaleozoic formations in the state.
Upper Atoka Formation (Pennsylvanian) – The Formation consists of marine tan to gray silty sandstone and grayish-black shale. Only in the Arkansas Valley and Frontal OuachitaMountain provinces is this formation split into the upper, middle,and lower members. The Atoka Formation has a thickness of about 25,000 feet.

Hartshorne Formation (Pennsylvanian) – The Formation consistsof brown to gray, massive, cross-bedded, medium grained sandstone, and some coal beds in the lower part of the unit. Plant fossils occur in the unit but are not abundant. Thisformation was deposited in a fluvial environment and ranges inthickness from 10 to 300 feet.
