Lithology description: "The oldest rocks exposed in the trench were brown tuffites, several metres thick. They are overlain by almost 1 m of light rusty brown to grey bioclastic, crinoidal limestone (no. 2) with [list]. Havlicek and Storch (1990) defined the assemblage as the Septatrypa lissodermis-Cyrtia maior Comm. It can be interpreted as BA 3."
