What was a mountain building period that ended 440 million years ago, that durring this time a unit of interbedded greywackes and shales that outcrops in eastern New York State were deposited in a deep marine setting in a foreland basin during this time?
Austin Glen Member The Austin Glen Member of the Normanskill Formation is an upper Middle Ordovician unit of interbedded greywackes and shales that outcrops in eastern New York State. It was deposited in a deep marine setting in a foreland basin during the Taconic orogeny. Its sediment source was mainly the erosion of preexisting sedimentary rocks. Graptolite fossils place it in the stratigraphic zones of "Nematograptus gracilis" and "Climacograptus bicornis", but its age could be Llandeilo or Trentonian (earliest to latest Darriwilian,  465 ).
Allegheny Formation The Pennsylvanian Allegheny Formation is a mapped bedrock unit in western and central Pennsylvania, western Maryland and West Virginia, and southeastern Ohio. It is a major coal-bearing unit in the Appalachian Plateau of the eastern United States.
