sixgill pete Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 The Yorktown Formation is Pliocene not Miocene. Not sure there are Yorktown deposits in Duplin County also. These look very similar to the large colonies of Balanus which are very commonly found in the Yorktown of Edgecombe County. Are you sure of the site info for this? 1 Bulldozers and dirt Bulldozers and dirt behind the trailer, my desert Them red clay piles are heaven on earth I get my rocks off, bulldozers and dirt Patterson Hood; Drive-By Truckers May 2016 May 2012 Aug 2013, May 2016, Apr 2020 Oct 2022 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
