| Description |
Breccia-filled solution pit - this outcrop shows breccia filling a former void that extended >2 meters below the preserved rim. The rocks surrounding the filled solution pit are eolian aragonitic calcarenite limestones of the Grotto Beach Formation (lower Upper Pleistocene, MIS 5e, ~119-131 ka). The clasts are angular pebbles and cobbles of the same calcarenite material. Calcrete paleosol material is present in the lowest parts of the pit. Clasts likely filled the pit episodically. Locality: Sandy Point Northeast Outcrop - first north-facing roadcut east & uphill from Sandy Point beach, near the southwestern-most corner of San Salvador Island, eastern Bahamas |
