DEWEY LIMESTONE
by L. A. Desjardins
ECONOMIC SIGNIFICANCE
The Dewey Limestone has little to offer economically in Tulsa County for several
reasons. Few of its beds are of a pure homogeneous quality, slopes are steep, and most
beds appear too thin, However, some of its limestone ledges may prove locally suitable
for coarse aggregate. Rippability is good to excellent, except for occasional thin
limestone ledges.
