Marnes d'Auzas Formation
The Marnes d'Auzas Formation is a geological Formation in southwestern France whose strata date back to the Late Maastrichtian. It is about 100 metres thick and consists primarily of marls with some interbeds of sandstones. It corresponds to sediments whose depositional environment evolved from the paralic domain at the base of the formation, towards a more continental domain in its upper part. The Marnes d'Auzas Formation was deposited in the west coast of the former Ibero-Armorican Island, which included much of France and Spain.
