HG 187.45-187.65 Thin Section

Coarse grained sediment with fine grained domains throughout. The clasts in the coarse grained domain range from sub-angular to sub-rounded. Short distance lineations are present throughout the sample. Organic rich domains (darker) are prevalent alongside fractured grains.

HG 195.45-195.55 Thin Section

Dark brown sediment with clasts ranging from small to large. The grains are sub-angular. Two main domains can be seen. Both are coarse grained, but one contains larger grains and potentially more clay material. Lineations are present throughout the sample in multiple directions. Minor rotation around a few larger clasts can be seen, as well as comet structures.

HG 216.35-216.45

Brown, coarse grained sample. Clasts range from small to medium in size and sub-angular to angular. Patched of clay rich domains can be seen throughout the sample. Rotation with and without a central grain can be seen throughout the sample. Edge-to-edge grain crushing and grain stacking can be seen throughout the sample.

HG 246.30-246.45 Thin Section

Generally coarse grained, with a few different fine grained domains. Clasts range from small to large, ranging from sub-angular to sub-rounded in shape. Domain boundaries are clear, and the sample also contains rotation structures and lineations.

HG 264.30-264.45

Coarse grained sample with clasts that range from small to large in size. The clast shape ranges from angular to rounded, and many grains are fractured. Grain crushing is present in large amounts. This includes edge-to-edge crushing as well as grains that are crushed into one another. Rotation structures are also common among the clasts that are sub-rounded to rounded. Areas of finer sediment can also be seen.

HG 290.45-290.55 Thin Section

Two main domains can be seen in this sample. One is coarse grained with clasts ranging from small to medium in size. The other is very fine grained, and a very dark brown, potentially influenced by organic material. Grain crushing and lineations can be seen in the coarser domain.

HG 364.45-364.55

Dark grey sediment with clasts that are large in size. The shape of the clasts range from angular to sub-rounded. Grain stacking can be seen throughout the sample. Minor amounts of rotation structures can also be seen.

HG 427.45-427.55

Brown sediment with grains ranging from small to large. The clast shape of this sample ranges from sub-angular to sub-rounded. Grain crushing can be seen in large amounts, and commonly involves the larger grains. Many of the larger grains are also fractured. Lineations and comet structures can also be seen.

HG 473.45-473.55

Light brown, coarse grained sediment with a few patches of a finer grained domain. Clasts range from small to medium in size. The finer grained domain mainly contains small sized grains that are very well dispersed. Clast shape ranges from angular to sub-rounded. Edge-to-edge grain crushing is common in the coarser domain, with a few grain stacks. The finer grained domain contains a few lineations.

HG 36.45-36.55

Dark brown sediment with areas of darker organic material. The clasts range from small to medium in size and angular to sub-rounded in shape. Lineations were abundant in this sample along with some rotation structures and common structures. A few grain stacks were also present.
