Associated with chert-pebble conglomerate and breccia, but exact stratigraphic relationships between these and thin-bedded rocks not clear. All units appear to underlie massive gray chert breccia. Fossils (in limestone) possibly Mesozoic/Triassic pelecypod fragments. Sitka A-2 coords: 12.51, 8.5? (last number unclear: comment by R.B. Blodgett)]
