Atahoc Fm - River Sumasse, East Timor | Niko S., Nishida T., et al (2000) | Atahoc | STRATIGRAPHIC RELATIONS: Overlain by the Late Permian Cribas, Triassic Aitutu, and the Triassic-Jurassic Wai Luli Formations. THICKNESS: 600 m thick sandstone and shale. STRATIGRAPHIC POSITION: Corresponds to ammonoid horizon of Audley-Charles (1968), about 150 m below the top of the Atahoc Fm. CORRELATES: Corresponds to boundary between the Somohole ad Bitauni Fms in West Timor. AGE: Near the Sterlitamakian (latest Sakmarian)/Aktastinskian (earliest Artinkisan) boundary, many workers support a | sandstone | 295.5 - 290.1 Ma Permian |
