Unit 6.
Sand as below. Zones of hard RB worth
cones at top and 10 to 12 ft from top
softer cones scattered below. Locally
in sand are Venicella, a flat A clom
(Cyprinocea?), small Tno (fibrous?)
Also found 1 spindle-tube filling solidified
(Coll. 2) Cones have abundant good
Venicella locally esp. layer 10-12' from
top.
In this interval pellet structures esp.
abundent. Resemblance of most to Ophio
is strong. Sand also locally pelletized!
Top Cone (layer markedly invecq.
has crumbly parts but mostly solid.
Fe-speckled cone sand, here marks
