Dzharakuduk, middle escarpment (highest IFC) | Feldmann R. M., Schweitzer C. E., et al (2007) | Bissekty | The Bissekty Formation also contains five to thirteen laterally extensive intraformational conglomerates (IFCs), interpreted as a series of transgressive lags, since they are locally extensive. Specimens collected from the highest IFC. | conglomerate | 93.5 - 89.3 Ma Late/Upper Cretaceous |
