Creechbarrow Limestone
Kommentar z. Stratigraphie Lithographie
This is the only known outcrop of the Creechbarrow Limestone, ranges in thickness from 0-16 m and lies above unnamed sands and clays "Chreechbarrow Hill is dated to mammal Paleogene Reference Level MP16 and the lautricense-siderolithicum Zone, by comparison with continental European faunas" (Benton et al., 2005) in general it's a buff marl containing variable sized limestone clasts, the limestone (sensu stricto) is a cream coloured, mottled with buff, soft to hard, massive micritic limestone with drusy sparite, scattered angular to subangular quartz grains up to 1mm in diameter, oncoliths often containing [molluscs and vertebrate remains]. Hard limestone in recent excavations was mainly encountered in the basal rubbly soid layer (A). buff marl: a buff calcareous silty clay with abundant angular to subangular quartz grains up to 1 m m in diameter and containing limestone clasts. It also contains oncoliths often containing [mollusc] and vertebrate remains and derived silicified Cretacous bryozoans.
