The Marcellus Shale, also known as
the Marcellus Formation, was so named due to a distinctive outcropping found near the community of Marcellus, New York. Yet this massive expanse
of shale rock extends far beyond the borders of the New York state. In fact, the Marcellus Shale is found all throughout the Allegheny Plateau region of the northern Appalachian Basin. The Marcellus bedrock found in eastern Pennsylvania extends across the Delaware River and into the westernmost portion of New Jersey.
    
The formation primarily consists of black shale, though there are some lighter shales as well as interbedded limestone layers due to variations in sea level that occurred during the formation’s deposition nearly 400 million years ago.
    

 Iron ore that has been found throughout the
shale helped spur the economic development of
this east coast region when it was first discovered.
However, today’s the largely-untapped reserves
of natural gas within the shale that are the most attractive element. This abundance of natural
gas combined with the formation’s proximity to numerous major markets along the east coast
have made the shale into an attractive target
for energy developers.

 
    
    
Even before the iron of the Marcellus Shale was used for industrial development, however, it was still an important resource
to the natives of the region. The iron-rich waters emanating from chalybeate springs near the base of the formation in Bedford, Pennsylvania, were thought by Native Americans to have healing powers. The Bedford Springs Hotel and the the Chalybeate Springs Hotel were built here in the 1800s to capitalize on these beliefs. Still in operation today, these hotels allow visitors
to bath in both traditional mineral springs as well as the iron-rich spring waters created by the shale.
