Geography
Country:Thailand State/province:Ratchaburi
Coordinates: 13.5° North, 99.7° East (view map)
Paleocoordinates:28.9° South, 98.5° East
Basis of coordinate:estimated from map
Geographic resolution:outcrop
Time
Period:Permian Epoch:Guadalupian
Stage:Wordian 10 m.y. bin:Permian 4
Key time interval:Wordian
Age range of interval:266.90000 - 264.28000 m.y. ago
Stratigraphy
Formation:Rat Buri
Stratigraphic resolution:group of beds
Stratigraphy comments: The age of the Rat Buri fauna is problematic. "Rat Buri" limestones likely range in age from Kungurian through Capitanian to perhaps Wuchiapingian. Wordian fusulinids appear most common in other collections, but are not found in association with the brachiopod localities. The brachopod fauna is most similar to the Wordian Amb Formation of the Salt Range, in Pakistan, tentatively indicating a Wordian age.
