Pg. 92. Fulton green shale [Fulton shale member of Monongahela formation]. On fresh exposures is bright-green, finely laminated shale, but weathers bluish green. Thickness 0 to 5 feet. Underlies Uniontown limestone and overlies Benwood limestone. Present in West Virginia, western Pennsylvania, and eastern Ohio. Age is Pennsylvanian.
Exposed at Fulton, Ohio Co., WV.
[GNC remark (ca. 1938, US geologic names lexicon, USGS Bull. 896, p. 786): The Ohio and West Virginia Geol. Surveys in 1931 applied Arnoldsburg limestone to lower part of Uniontown limestone of previous usage, and restricted Uniontown to younger beds.]

Pg. 36, 37. Fulton shale member of Monongahela formation. Thin shale member which in eastern Ohio occurs about midway between the Sewickley and Uniontown coals. In Jefferson County, Ohio, and northwestern West Virginia, underlies Arnoldsburg limestone. Age is Late Pennsyvlanian.

Pg. 158 (table 13), 178, 180. Fulton shale and sandstone member in Arnoldsburg cyclothem. [Considered an informal classification.] In Athens County, Ohio, olive-green shaly sandstone that occurs above Benwood coal bed has been identified as the Fulton "green" shale. Here, the Fulton shale is separated from Benwood coal by bedded sequence of silty shale or fine-grained sandstone that contains shaly partings and averages 4.5 feet in thickness. In Monongahela series. Age is Late Pennsylvanian.
