10 microbial mounds
Conodont fossils such as Hindeodus parvus?
and Isarcicella staeschei were found in the microbial mounds, and these fossils indicate
that the age is that of the lower Griesbachian Stage.
The microbial mounds in this study can be considered to be composed of three facies, namely, a
mound base, mound body, and mound cap.
Growth below "normal" wave base.
