Summary
[edit]DescriptionSoft-sediment deformation in quartzose sandstone (Navajo Sandstone, Lower Jurassic; Capitol Reef National Park, Utah, USA) 1.jpg |
English: The folded and convoluted bedding seen in this outcrop is soft-sediment derformation. Such features can be caused by ancient storms or ancient earthquakes (resulting in seismites) or sediment slumping.
The host rock is eolian quartzose sandstone - this is an ancient sand dune deposit. The soft-sediment deformation in this case occurred during failure events of portions of the nonlithified dunes. In other words, portions of the sand dunes shifted and collapsed. Stratigraphy: Navajo Sandstone Lower Jurassic Locality: roadside outcrop in Fremont River Canyon, just west of abandoned meander, Capitol Reef National Park, southern Utah, USA |
