Location: | 778555 (also Bendock 764586) near Combienbar. | |
Abstract: | Fossils sites in Devonian sediments, (denoted, F) | |
Access: | Combienbar Road. | |
Ownership: | Crown Land. | |
Geology: | Green to brown medium-grained micaceous sandstones interbedded with red sandstones and siltstones are poorly exposed at these sites. Fragmented plant fossils including stem casts and occasional small indeterminant fish plates have been collected from these beds. | |
Significance: | Regional. Fossils sites in the Devonian Combienbar succession are rare. | |
Management: | The poorly preserved nature of specimens collected from surfacial deposits at these sites has been of limited value in determining stratigraphic relationships. Excavations at these sites may uncover better-preserved fossils and would enhance the significance of the site. | |
