HG 186.15-186.25-1

Coarse grained section with two different fine grained domains. Towards the left hand side the domain is dark and has no inclusions of coarse grains. The right hand side has some coarser materials.

HG 186.15-186.25-2

Major grains crushing towards the top left with two fine grained domains in coarse grained sediment.

HG 186.15-186.25-3

Major grain crushing towards the centre of the section. A few lineations and grain stacks also present.

HG 186.15-186.25 Thin Section

Coarse grained sample with multiple fine grained domains. Clasts range from small to medium and sub-angular to sub-rounded. Mainly contains grain crushing (with grains crushed into one another) and short distance lineations. A few rotation structures are seen and fine grained sand domains can also be seen.

HG 225.15-225.25 Thin Section

Dark brown sediment with sub-angular to sub-rounded grains, that range from small to medium in size. Lineations with fractured grains are abundant, and grain crushing can also be seen. Minor rotation can also be seen.

HG 261.25-261.35 Thin Section

Brown sediment with small clasts, and an occasional medium sized clast. Clasts appear to be sub-rounded in shape. The sample contains many lineations, the majority oriented in the same direction. There are also darker areas present in the sample, they may contain organics.

HG 297.25-297.35a Thin Section

Brown sediment with well dispersed clasts. Clasts range from small to medium in size and sub-angular to sub-rounded in shape. Alternating domains can be seen (light and dark). Darker domains appear organic rich. Lineations can also be seen throughout the sample.

HG 297.25-297.35b Thin Section

Fine grained sample with some small clasts. The small clasts are sub-angular to sub-rounded in shape. Organic materials can be seen throughout the sample (darker areas). Lineations are also present throughout the sample.

HG 421.15-421.25

Brown sediment with a coarse grained domain and a fine grained domain. The coarse grained domain contains clasts that are small to medium in size. The clast shape ranges from sub-angular to sub-rounded. The coarse grained domain is abundant in lineations. The fine grained domain contains many faint water escape structures. A few rotation structures can also be seen throughout the sample.

HG 458.25-458.35

Dark brown sediment, with clasts ranging from small to large. The sample mainly contained smaller clasts. The clast shape ranges from sub-angular to sub-rounded. Lineations were common throughout the sample. It also contained areas with dark organic material, and a few faint water escape structures.

HG 37.15-37.25

Brown sediment with clasts ranging from small to large in size. Clast shape ranges from sub-angular to rounded. Rotation structures were abundant throughout the sample, along with necking structures. Lineations and edge-to-edge grain crushing were also present in minor amounts.

HG 115.15-115.25

Dark brown sediment abundant with organic matter. Mainly consists of small clasts that are angular to rounded in shape. Comet structures and lineations can be seen throughout the sample.
