Figure F19. Scanned core photograph showing contact between igneous Unit III and conglomerate of sedimentary Unit II (interval 330-U1372A-8R-3A, 59–67 cm). Diagonal lines drawn at sides of photograph show location of contact. Tiny lobes of basalt seem to be invading the sediment at A, and a lobate fragment of basalt is contained in a small patch of carbonate sediment at B. These observations suggest that the lava may have flowed into and intruded the conglomerate that now lies above it.
