| DV 362-6 [Pisco Fm] | DeVries T. J. (1995) | Pisco | STRATIGRAPHIC RELATIONS: From the Pisco Fm, which regionally, unconformably overlies the Chilcatay Fm (late Oligocene-early Middle Miocene). AGE: Early Pliocene in text, on the basis of K/Ar dates, siliceous microfossil zonation, and molluscan biostratigraphy. STRATIGRAPHIC POSITION: Unknown, probably near top of formation. | "siliciclastic" | 5.333 - 3.6 Ma Neogene |
