Hickory Corners | Ernst A., Brett C. E., et al (2019) | Reynales - Hickory Corners | Most material was obtained from loose slabs that can only be from the Hickory Corners Member; these are mainly from above the basal Budd Road phosphatic beds, but the exact horizon could not be determined. The Reynales Formation has long been known to be of mid-Llandovery and probably Aeronian age (Berry and Boucot, 1970). Recently, Waid and Over (2015) discovered conodonts in the lower Reynales Formation (basal Budd Road phosphate bed of LoDuca and Brett, 1994) from Budd Road about 2.5 k | packstone | 440.8 - 438.5 Ma Silurian |
