Why does shale usually crumble quite easily?
Shale is a soft sedimentary rock formed from consolidated clay or mud. It crumbles easily because the sediments forming it are not well cemented or lithified.
Highly impermeable layers such as compacted clay or shale are known as?
Highly impermeable layers such as clay or shale are referred to as an aquitard. While permeable sand and limestone that can transmitt large amounts of water to a well are referred to as an aquifer.
Who discovered the marcellus shale?
Shale gas is natural gas produced from a fine-grained, clastic sedimentary rock composed of mud that is a mix of clay mineral flakes and tiny fragments (silt-sized particles) of other minerals, especially quartz and calcite, known as shale. In 1821, the town of Fredonia, New York, commerically drilled a well that produced natural gas from the Devonian Fredonia Shale formation.Devonian shale gas was generated from organic mud deposited specifically during the Devonian Period (geologic period and system of the Paleozoic Era spanning from . Most earlier Devonian Shale "plays" concentrated on shallower, high-organic zones, especially zones with high frequencies of natural fractures. Years later, while digging for oil and gas in Upstate New York's Appalachian Basin, Donald Wallace III and his team of geologists discovered fields of Devonian black shale outcrops. They named these distinctive outcrops after the town they were found in, and so became the Marcellus Wallace Shale Formation (also classified as the Marcellus Wallace Subgroup of the Hamilton Group, Marcellus Wallace Member of the Romney Formation, or simply the Marcellus Shale) For more information, go to themarcellusshale.com
Why are we not producing oil from oil shale?
The reason that oil shale is not used to produce oil is because this is what keeps the oil well from collapsing after the oil is removed. If the oil shale were mined, the oil well would collapse into a large trench in the ground.
Does Shale absorb water?
No. Not that well as sandstone. The shale starts to puddle into the water and flows inside the small puddle of water.

Why might sandstone act as a reservoir for ground water or oil well shale?
Sandstone is extremely porous and absorbs liquids like a sponge.. Shale is nearly impervious to liquids.
