Valid article??
I have been a professor of geology for more than 30 years (and volcanologist). I can assure you that there is not volcano below Jackson MS. I suspect that what has happened is that an oil company drilled for oil there and hit igneous rocks below the Gulf Coastal plain. The article says these rocks re over 65 million years old. I have tried to go to the source (Mississippi Geology) but it does not link to anything. It is debatable what you can call a volcano. There are igneous rocks everywhere below the Gulf Coastal Plain (even in Florida they have drilled into igneous rocks). There are igneous rocks all through the Appalachian Mountains which were at one time volcanoes but we do not call them volcanoes. I strongly recommend that this article be deleted unless the original author(s) can make it clear as to why he or she thinks it is a volcano. A 65 million year old volcano would be so eroded that you could not recognize it as a volcano. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Volcanoman7 (talk • contribs) 13:12, 31 July 2013 (UTC)
