 Scales Shale
The Scales Shale is commonly about 100 feet (30 m) thick in northwestern Indiana, but it thickens strikingly eastward and southeastward.
Correlation: The Scales Shale of the northwestern Illinois outcrop area was long considered to be Richmondian in age (Twenhofel and others, 1954) but later was thought to be "equivalent to all the Cincinnatian strata older than the Richmondian" (Templeton and Willman, 1963, p.
More recent opinion (Shaver and others, 1985) assigns the Scales of Illinois to the Maysvillian Stage and implies that the Scales-Galena (in Indiana, Scales-Trenton) contact descends in time eastward, so that much of the Scales in Indiana belongs to the Edenian Stage and is contemporaneous with higher parts of the Galena Group in Illinois.
