Geological group: | Kekerione | Formation: | Red Bluff Tuff | Member: | Te One Limestone |
Stratigraphic resolution: | bed | ||||
Stratigraphy comments: AGE: The Te One Limestone is assigned a Bortonian-Kaiatan age based on biostratigraphy from combination of faunal groups. |
Lithology and environment
Primary lithology: | shelly/skeletal poorly lithified calcareous grainstone |
Includes fossils? | Y |
Lithology description: SPECIFIC LITHOLOGY: Soft bryozoan calcarenite. LITHIFICATION: Poorly lithified, as described as "soft" | |
Environment: | offshore |
Geology comments: ENVIRONMENT: Molluscan assemblages give little indication of depth of deposition, but an inner-middle shelf setting is suggested; siliciclastic environment. |
