Stratigraphy
Formation: | Ocala Limestone | ||||
Stratigraphic resolution: | group of beds | ||||
Stratigraphy comments: STRATIGRAPHIC RELATIONS: From the Inglis Fm of the Ocala Group, which is overlain by the Williston Limestone, and overlies the Avon Park Limestone; originally proposed as Inglis Member of Moodys Branch Fm by Vernon (1951). Scott (1991) reduced the Ocala Group to formational status in accordance with the North American Stratigraphic Code, because the formations within it were biostratigraphic rather than lithostratigraphic. Inglis Member/Formation corresponds with the informal lower member of the Ocala. AGE: Priabonian; stage assignment based on Baum et al. 1994. Lower member of the Ocala Limestone may be Bartonian (Cotton et al., 2018). STRATIGRAPHIC POSITION: Unknown position within formation. |
Lithology and environment
Primary lithology: | shelly/skeletal,white packstone |
Lithology description: White to cream-colored, granular fossiliferous limestone which is at least partially dolomitized. | |
Environment: | lagoonal/restricted shallow subtidal |
Geology comments: Bryan (2005, 2008) described the Ocala Limestone’s lower member as having a shoal assemblage which was deposited in high-energy, nearshore waters; shallow subtidal facies on a restricted platform. |
