Stratigraphy
Formation: | Mascall |
Lithology and environment
Primary lithology: | lithified muddy,silty sandstone |
Lithology description: Mascall Formation sediments are composed of primarily fluvial and lacustrine deposits, generally of a uniform tan to light yellow color. In the Crooked River Basin, the Mascall has significantly more fluvial sequences than even the lowermost portion of the type area (Bestland, 1998), with thick cross-bedded sandstones and pebble conglomerates common | |
Environment: | terrestrial indet. |

Size of fossils: | macrofossils |
Collection methods and comments
Collection excludes: | all macrofossils |
Collection methods: | surface (float),surface (in situ),field collection |
Reason for describing collection: | biostratigraphic analysis |
