Millrift Formation PA Upper Devonian

[GordonC]

A bit of sun yesterday helped here in Millrift PA , about 3 miles upriver from Port Jervis/Matamoras.

The reference for this location is Atlas 228 plate 1 http://www.dcnr.state.pa.us/topogeo/publications/pgspub/atlas/index.htm.

The U. Devonian Millrift Formation (530') is underlain by the Sloat Brook Formation (340') , Sparrow Bush Formation (40') and the M. Devonian Mahantango Formation (2450').

Cheers,

Gordon

Nice variety!  I really like the iron staining on some of them, makes for a nice contrast.

Echoing Don and others here. Nice brachs and pelecypods. The iron staining definitely gives them a stunning accent from the matrix.

Cool finds. Whole bivalves are always nice to find.

Nice finds Gordon. Glad to see you've crossed over into the Upper Devonian. Lots to explore there. I especially like the Actinopteria (bivalve). Congratulations.
