| S136/f650 - Otekaike Limestone, Survey Peak | Gage M. (1957) | Otiake - Otekaike Limestone | STRATIGRAPHIC RELATIONS: From Otekaike Limestone, which is the upper unit of the Otiake Group, overlying the Kokoamu Greensand, and is overlain by the Gee Greensand of the Kaierero Group. AGE: Duntroonian-Waitakian in text of Gage (1957), but largely Waitakian in Table 3; Waitakian = Late Chattian-early Aquitanian; hereby assigned a Late Oligocene age in ensure collection is not orphaned. STRATIGRAPHIC POSITION: Unknown position within formation. | "limestone" | 28.4 - 23.03 Ma Cenozoic |
