Stratigraphy
The formation is overlain by either the Backbone Ranges Formation and the Vampire Formation, depending on the locality. These two formations have a common base with the Ingta formation, and both continue onwards until the base of the Sekwi Formation.Depositional environment
The rocks are submarine, and were deposited in a nearshore to offshore location on the continental shelf, with no freshwater influence evident—although overlying units bear evidence of deltaic and braided river deposits.Palaeontology
The formation has yielded a range of SSFs including eggs and embryos, anabaritids, '' Protohertzina'', '' Zhejiangorhabdion'', and phosphatized tubes, spines and plates.References
