Stratigraphy
Stratigraphic resolution:group of beds
Stratigraphy comments: 127-117 ka age (Marine Isotope Substage 5e) for corals that were directly dated from localities SDMNH 0633 (UCMP D1547), 0644, and 2465 (Muhs 1994); dates are inferred to apply to the rest of the Discovery Point Formation, but its not clear that this locality is Discovery Point Formation.
Lithology and environment
Primary lithology: lithified conglomerate
Secondary lithology: "limestone"
Lithology description: coquina; Discovery Point Formation: coarsely clastic sediments that grade laterally from conglomerate, locally with pebbles of volcanic origin, to a biostrome formed chiefly of coral fragments and mollusk shells.
Environment:perireef or subreef
Glacial or sequence phase:interglacial
