Summary

[edit]
Description

The small, rounded structures are nodules in Mississippian siliciclastic sedimentary rocks. The overhanging rocks at top are sandstone. The gray rocks below are mudshales. At this site, the nodules often contain one or two fossils - usually lingulid brachiopods (Lingula sp.). Other observed fossils include orbiculoid brachiopods and a new species of ammonoid cephalopod, Polaricyclus n.sp.
