Stratigraphy
Formation: | Castle Hayne | Member: | Comfort | ||
Stratigraphic resolution: | group of beds | ||||
Stratigraphy comments: This collection is from the upper part of the formation. According to Powell and Baum, this collection could also fall under the Crassatella alta/Chlamys cawcawensis faunal zone, although the beginning of the C. alta zone is questionable due to unconformity. |
Lithology and environment
Primary lithology: | shelly/skeletal lithified wackestone |
Secondary lithology: | grainstone |
Includes fossils? | Y |
Lithology description: a bryozoan biosparrudite facies that interfingers with and is gradational with the overlying biomicrudite facies. (from baum et al. 1978) | |
Environment: | deep subtidal ramp |
Geology comments: The Castle Hayne Limestone was deposited in an open, normal salinity environment between 30 m and 100 m in water depth. Comfort Member contains cross-bedded intervals, suggesting some energy, consistent with deep subtidal environment. |
Taphonomy
Modes of preservation: | body |
Size of fossils: | macrofossils |
Collection methods and comments
Collection excludes: | all microfossils,difficult macrofossils |
