• coordinate stated in text

• outcrop-level geographic resolution

When: Haida Formation, Albian (113.0 - 100.5 Ma)

• STRATIGRAPHIC RELATIONS: From the lower sandstone member of the Haida Fm, which rests unconformably on massive agglomerate of the Jurassic Yakoun Fm, and is overlain by the shale member, which passes up into the Honna Fm.
