Lithology and environment
Primary lithology:peloidal,gray lithified "shale"
Secondary lithology: grainstone
Environment:interdistributary bay Tectonic setting:cratonic basin
Geology comments: This represents a subaqueous delta platform environment. The interdistributary mudstone facies is interpreted to have been deposited on the lee side of a carbonate bank on the delta platform.

Collection methods and comments
Collection methods:bulk,chemical,mechanical,sieve,field collection
Reason for describing collection:paleoecologic analysis
Taxonomic list comments:The fauna at this locality are part of the Interdistributary Mudstone Community of Ausich, Kammer, and Lane, 1979. See reference #557. This community also has been termed the equitable diversity community by the author. Total numeric abundance is 212905. Total biovolume abundance is 2099.9900.
