Lithology description: "Here the Sillaoru Formation is about 70 cm thick. It consists of calcareous clay with highly argillaceous limestone with numerous iron ooliths. The carbonates are heavily bioturbated, penetrated often by Skolithos burrows together with Trypanites type borings. The overlying Lopukhinka Member is more clay rich and about 20 cm thick.", in Rasmussen & Harper (2008)
