Formations at three localities Claiborne Bluff, Ala., Baldoek, S.C., and Clinchfield, Ga. were deposited by a transgressive sea in early late Eocene (Jackson) time. The Jackson sea was widespread in southwestern Georgia, but in eastern Georgia it was restricted to a relatively narrow strip ending in the vicinity of Baldoek, S.C. The Clinchfield Sand, named by R. E. Carver in 1966 for the town of Clinchfield, Houston County, Ga., is herein adopted. Exposures are in the quarries of the Penn-Dixie Cement Co. and along Big Indian Creek, on Georgia Highway 247, 2.4 miles northwest of the Houston and Pulaski County line. The Clinchfield Sand generally underlies the Ocala Limestone and overlies the Lisbon Formation (equivalent to the McBean Formation) in south-central Georgia. The Clinchfield extends from the Chattahoochee River eastward across Georgia to the Savannah River. The deposit at Claiborne Bluff, Ala., named by H. B. Stenzel in 1952 for the Dellet mansion, a landmark in the town of Claiborne, Monroe County, is herein adopted as the Dellet Sand Member of the Moodys Branch Formation and is identified as the equivalent of the Clinchfield Sand. The deposit at Baldoek, S.C., consists of a very sandy calcareous fossiliferous marl and is identified in this report by the term "Cooper Marl." The quotation marks are used to indicate that there was an error in the first published stratigraphic position of the marl at Baldoek. The deposits at Clinchfield and Baldoek represent very shallow seas, not more than 15-50 feet in depth. The sediments at Claiborne Bluff were deposited on the continental shelf in fairly shallow water, probably not more than 75-90 feet. The basal upper Eocene (Jackson) deposits at the three localities are stratigraphically equivalent, though not identical. The deposits described from Clinchfield and Baldoek representing a carbonate facies are more closely related to each other than to those from Claiborne Bluff. This paper includes a list of Foraminif era collected at the three localities.
