| Lithology description: formation includes two principal facies. shallow subtidal: very thin to thin or nodular beds of skeletal packstone, separated by very thin beds of calcareous shale. highly bioturbated, locally phosphatic. sand shoal: crinoidal grainstone, phosphatic, with large-scale trough cross-bedding. formation also includes local patches of a more restricted shallow subtidal facies with medium beds of skeletal wackestone and packstone, separated by thin partings of dark gray shale. | |||
| Environment: | shallow subtidal indet. | Tectonic setting: | foreland basin |
