Stratigraphy
Geological group: | Okeechobee | Formation: | Tamiami | Member: | Golden Gate |
Stratigraphic resolution: | member | ||||
Stratigraphy comments: STRATIGRAPHIC RELATIONS: From the Golden Gate Mbr of the Tamiami Fm, Okeechobee Grp, which is overlain by the Fruitville Mbr, and overlies the Ochopee Mbr, both of the Tamiami Fm. Correlative with the Yorktown, Chowan River, Waccamaw, Duplin, and Jackson Bluff Fms. THICKNESS: Varies between 15 and 50 m across areal extent. AGE: Late Pliocene. Based on macrofossil biostratigraphy the unit is throught to represent the middle-late Piacenzian. STRATIGRAPHIC POSITION: Checklist representative of entire member. |

Lithology description: SPECIFIC LITHOLOGY: Interbedded set of lithofacies, dominated by limestones and unconsolidated calcilutites, including vuggy moldic limestones, highly fossiliferous limestone containing densely packed corals, layers of unconsolidated calcilutites and dolosilts. Unconsolidated calcilutites, dolosilts, and fine-grained calcarenites are pale tan, light gray and blue-gray. LITHIFICATION: Unlithified and lithified, based on figured specimens and facies description. | |
