Albee Formation - Scarritt member (VTOCAals;0)

Albee Formation - Scarritt member

Dark-gray slate interlayered with thin beds of light-gray, fine-grained micaceous and feldspathic metasandstone (typically ribby weathering). Abruptly graded beds <1 cm to 30 cm thick are locally common as is channeling and, in places, soft-sediment deformation. Commonly sulfidic and rusty weathering. Stratified rocks of the Bronson Hill arch and Sawyer Mountain belt.
