Northward it grades into lime-shale and then into shale-lime lithofacies of interbedded red beds and nodular limestone on the Mogollon Rim, but of interbedded grayish calcareous shale and fossiliferous limestone west of the south and sand-lime lithofacies on the north, whereas the Pennsylvanian beds in the Estancia trough are of shale-lime lithofacies that intertongue eastward, toward the Pedernal Mountains, with a sand-shale lithofacies. In small areas near the Joyita Hills and Florida Mountains, lime-sand and sand-lime lithofacies dominate; the Joyita Hills are on the east side of the Lucero Basin, which shows a westward gradation from sand-lime to lime-sand to lime-shale, and toward the Zuni positive area, to shale-lime. The thick San Mateo sections are of lime-shale lithofacies. Pennsylvanian strata are potential sources of oil and gas at least in the northern and eastern parts of the region, on the southern edge of the Colorado Plateau, and in the Estancia Valley, Acoma embayment, Chupadera Mesa, Jornada del Muerto, and the Tularosa Valley. Even the basin-and-range country and Datil-Mogollon volcanic plateau are underlain by possibly productive Pennsylvanian beds. Large-scale use of the various Pennsylvanian rocks as industrial minerals and rocks is hampered by the long distances to populous areas, the limestones, shale, and gypsum having been used only locally for building stone and crushed rock, in agriculture, and to make bricks, tile, cement, and lime products.
