Lithology and environment
Lithology description: 'The red clay sediment deposited in a cave formed by a cleft running northwest to southeast direction was blasted in 1971. At the time of palaeontological collections, in 1969 and 1970, the upper part of the profile, 10m high and 5-6m wide, was made up of yellowish sediment closed downwards by a calcite shelf, below which reddish brown sediment was found. The material was collected from 9 arbitrarily delimited (20-30cm wide) strata.'
