PFOOLEY Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Very nice. This... Gastropods from the Campanian–Maastrichtian Aruma Formation, Central Saudi Arabia ...might be of some use. You are finding some very nice specimens out in the desert...the Aruma is treating you well. 2 "I am glad I shall never be young without wild country to be young in.

PFOOLEY Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 I'm going to leave this... GEOLOGY OF THE ARABIAN PENINSULA ...for you as well. It may not help directly with this query, but contains some good information on the Aruma. 1 "I am glad I shall never be young without wild country to be young in.
