  3. This is a closer view of the geologically interesting part of another GigaPan that's currently uploading.

  4. The ancient erosional surface between the Archean rocks of the Wyoming Terrane basement complex and the overlying Flathead Sandstone (Cambrian in age), with a rubbly conglomerate at its base.

  5. The famous unconformity at the northwestern border of the Lower Palaeozoic Stavelot-Venn basement inlier in the valley of the Ninglinspo (Belgium). The layers are overturned and dip to the south. On the outcrop the basal conglomerate and reddish claystone is exposed; both are of Lochkovian age. The slates below the unc...

  6. There's time missing in this GigaPan. Can you find where it disappeared?

  7. The Huckleberry Ridge Tuff crops out at the top of the distant ridge on the south side dipping toward the south. It unconformably overlies Paleozoic sedimentary rocks that dip northward, forming an angular unconformity. The Huckleberry Ridge Tuff was deposited in horizontal sheets just 2.1 million years ago as a resu...

  8. This GigaPan is a detail of the Taconic Angular Unconformity exposed near the east end of the roadcut illustrated in the GigaPan of the Lower Helderberg Group (). The Ordovician Austin Glen Formation (flysch, right) lies below the angular unconformity and the Silurian Rondout formation constitutes the relatively more ...

  9. This GigaPan illustrates an exposure of the basal Cambrian Potsdam Sandstone nonconformably overlying Precambrian gneisses at the eastern edge of the Adirondack Mts uplift. My field assistants took time out from exploring this remarkable contact to pose for the GigaPan. Berti is standing directly on the unconformity ...

  10. This roadcut, near Alexandria Bay, New York, exposes the "Great Unconformity" between the basal Cambrian Potsdam Sandstone and the underlying Precambrian gneisses of the Frontenac Arch. The unconformity is near the base of the roadcut and can be seen to preserve some evidence of paleotopography on the Cambri...
