Figure F10.
Photomicrograph showing the lithology of white, variably porous rudstone to
floatstone just below the tightly cemented uppermost zone of Subunit IIIA
(Sample 194-1193A-6X-CC,
46 cm; 37.6 mbsf). A partly dissolved bivalve shell fragment (M) is
encrusted by bryozoans (Y) and underlain by a shelter pore that shows geopetal
fabric with partial filling by micritic mud (A) followed by coarser-grained
material (B) interpreted as crystal silt. The latter feature is evidence for
vadose diagenetic conditions.
