Also known as Loc. 63

Where: Williamsburg County, South Carolina (33.4° N, 79.7° W: paleocoordinates 34.5° N, 62.6° W)

• coordinate based on nearby landmark

• outcrop-level geographic resolution

When: Black Mingo Formation, Late/Upper Paleocene (58.7 - 55.8 Ma)

• STRATIGRAPHIC RELATIONS: From the Black Mingo, which presumably regionally unconformably overlies the PeeDee Fm and is unconformably overlain by the McBean Fm; the formation is laterally equialent to the Aquia Fm and the Wilcox Gp. AGE: Paleocene in text; here assigned to Late Paleocene on the basis of more recent biostratigraphic dating. STRATIGRAPHIC POSITION: From upper unit (3 ft thick sand).

• bed-level stratigraphic resolution

Environment/lithology: coastal; glauconitic, shelly/skeletal, yellow sandstone

Size class: macrofossils
