| STRI Loc. 290841 - Yotoyoro [middle Castilletes Fm] | Hendy A. J. W., Jones D. S., et al (2015) | Castilletes - middle Castilletes | STRATIGRAPHIC RELATIONS: From the Castilletes Formation, which conformably overlies the Jimol Formation (early Miocene) and is unconformably overlain by the Ware Formation. AGE: Langhian, on the basis of macrofaunal composition; direct age established by extrapolation of Sr-isotope dating by enterer. STRATIGRAPHIC POSITION: From middle member of Castilletes Fm; from 153 m above Jimol/Castilletes contact. | siltstone | 15.97 - 13.82 Ma Miocene |
