Figure F10. Nannofossil ranges presented as age-depth chart. Bedding dips vary between 60° and 90° and sediment is strongly deformed, so this information does not imply a mass accumulation rate. In Hole C0002P, diagnostic information is very limited, with poor preservation of calcareous fossils, perhaps because steep dips mean little stratigraphy was traversed; however, this data is broadly consistent with depositional ages between 9.56 and 10.73 Ma. LO = last occurrence, FCO = first common occurrence, FO = first occurrence.
