T-1: T(B) Ft. Douglas | Schubert J K, Bottjer D J (1995) | Thaynes | Most recently, the Thaynes formation has been separated into four facies belts, which include a basinal facies, an outer shelf facies, an inner shelf facies, and a red bed facies. the basinal facies consists of dark grey to black very siltly lime mudstones and gray to loive drab siltstones and shales. The outer shelf facies belt is characterized by dark grayish brown whole fossil wackestone, ranging to light gray bioclastic grainstone, with minor interbedded sanstone, siltstone, and mudstone. Th | packstone | 251.3 - 247.2 Ma Early/Lower Triassic |
