Section 26
Section 8a - 2.5 miles NE of (Taylor) Neal Ranch House lower part of section
badly covered.
1) Sandstone, very fine size, yellow weathering - Tetracorals, brachiopods,
sponges?, fusulines?. This bed is fairly porous and most fossils are empty
molds. 1' to 2'.
2) Covered 12'.
3) Limestone, gray, shell hash, brachs, crinoids, fusuline 9'. Collection 7/9/57/6,
4" to 1' bedding. At top of unit a bed like #1 is capping.
4) Covered 29'.
5) Limestone, gray at bottom (2') <-- 7/9/57/7, 42' above are gray-brown

Section 8a runs up a small slope. The various angles of bedding and covered
intervals between these outcrops are suggestive of some structural disturbance.
Section 8b begins on what I believe is bed 7 of 8a.
8) 69' covered.
9) Sandstone, poorly undulated, very fine sand size, some silt, well sorted
however, CaCO3 is common as sand grains - greenish-gray shale yellows. 36',
1" to 3" beds.
10) Limestone, nodular uneven bedding, 3" to 6" beds. Collection 7/9/57/10, 3'
above base. 38' (See page 21) Collection 7/9/57/11, 15' above base.
11) Siltstone, pebbly, yellow weathering, some bands are more pebble than silt!
15' poorly cemented.
12) Siltstone with pebbles - siliceous cement 2'.
