(a) Carter Limestone.--This is the conspicuous light-colored limestone seen along Carter's creek, in Maury county. It is a light-blue, heavy-bedded limestone from 60 to 100 feet in thickness. It is seen in all of the counties of the Central Basin. Liberty in De Kalb, Statesville in Wilson, Woodbury in Cannon, and the lower part of Columbia in Maury are located upon it. Near Nashville it is seen in the lower part of the hills about Mt. Olivet and in the valley of Mill Creek. At a number of points it is quarried for building purposes and for burning with lime. 305.

Everywhere characterized by containing or by being made up of the small shells or valves, often silicified, of a brachiopod known as Orthis testudinaria. To some extent a phosphate limestone. From 50 to 70 feet. Seen in sections at Nashville, Columbia, Franklin, and many other points; the lowest rock at Mt. Pleasant; has been made into hydraulic cement at Clifton, in Wayne county. 306.
