“…Within the study area, the Edwards Group can be subdivided into several hydrostratigraphic units with different structural and hydrologic characteristics ( Fig. 2) (Maclay and Small, 1976;Small et al, 1996). The Natural Bridge caves are located within the interbedded limestone and dolomitic units of the upper Glen Rose and lower Walnut formations, which are also Early Cretaceous in age.…”

“…Host rock lithology in this zone contains relatively high concentrations of unoxidized organic material, pyrite, gypsum, and celestite (Maclay and Small 1976;Longman and Mench 1978). Generally, this zone has lower 314 A. S. ENGEL AND K. W. RANDALL permeability and porosity, making the extent of mixing between fresh and saline water limited (Maclay and Small 1976;Land and Prezbindowski 1981;Oetting et al 1996;Sharp and Banner 1997).…”

The saline water has high dissolved hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) concentrations, which have been attributed to microbial sulfate reduction associated with petroleum fields along the eastern edge of the aquifer (Rye et al 1981; Clement and Sharp 1988;Oetting et al 1996).…”
