The Tuscaloosa Marine Shale is a 90-million-year-old Late Cretaceous sedimentary rock formation across the Gulf Coast region of the United States.[1]
It is similar in composition and geological age to the Eagle Ford Shale formation in southern Texas.[2]
The thickness of the formation varies from 500–800 feet,[3] and is located at a depth of 11,000-15,000 feet.
