C., Martens T., et al (2011) | Rotliegend - Tambach - Finsterbergen conglomerate | "The upper [i.e. the Finsterbergen] conglomerate, which is 10 to 50 m thick, contains crystalline clasts derived from the Ruhla crystalline uplift located northwest of the Bromacker locality in addition to rhyolite clasts from the Oberhof uplift. A conglomerate near the top of the exposed section at the discovery site contains crystalline clasts, indicating that the exposed strata are of the upper conglomerate, most likely from the lowermost portion of this unit."
