Bridgewater Formation STRATNO: 2543
Current: Yes Rank: Formation, beds Status: Formal State(s): SA , VIC
Category: Other new published name Usage: Defined Definition Card: No
Originator: Entry date: 01-JAN-88 Last Update: 22-FEB-13
Replaced by: Previously known as: Bridgewater formation
Description: Poorly consolidated yellow pinkish-brown fine to coarse fossiliferous calcareous sand, calcarenite. Locally capped by calcrete. As coastal beach and associated aeolian dune. Forms stranded series of elongated beach ridges, subparallel to present coast
Comments: Defined for the Otway Basin. Upper and lower members are differentiated with detailed lithology on MAITLAND (but unnamed) - the upper member has age of ~1-0.2Ma and merges with the Glanville Formation. KINGSCOTE Special (2008) map shows 3 mainly calcarenite unnamed members.
