Mark major contacts (color, grains size, lithology, etc.) Determine nature of contacts (sharp, gradational, erosional) S SharpG Gradational SI Sharp irregularB Gradational-interbedded SC Sharp conformableVS Visibly scoured SD Sharp disconformableBU Burrowed ST Stylolite Depth/Scale/Contacts Calculate total depth and appropriate scale / units
6
Texture Determine Dunham texture between major contacts. Plot texture / weathering profile. Grainstone : Packstone : Wackestone : Mudstone
