Lineaments which resemble those produced by known, mapped geologic faults are found on Landsat images of a poprtion of Western Kentucky. Since fractures and faults are suspected to be necessary for gas production in the eastern gas shales, it would be valuable to evaluate such ineaments as faults. For this purpose surface geophysical measurements were made across the lineaments and also across mapped faults for control. Resistivity, gravity, and radiation measurements showed that the mapped faults produce geophysically measured anomalies, and also gave probable indication of faulting along two Landsat lineamants. These economical geophysical measurements are a useful, but not certain, method of evaluating Landsat lineaments as faults.
