Joachim Dolomite
The Joachim Dolomite is a Middle Ordovician geologic formation in Arkansas, Illinois, and Missouri. The name was first introduced in 1894 by Arthur Winslow in his study of the geology of Missouri. Winslow designated a stratotype along Plattin Creek, which was misidentified as Joachim Creek, in Jefferson County. The name was introduced into Arkansas in 1911, replacing part of the, now abandoned, Izard Limestone.
