| AA49712 | 0.28 - 0.3 | Dark greenish gray (Gley 1 4/1), fairly firm, poorly sorted silty, subangular to subrounded, very fine to rare medium sandy mud with olive gray (5Y 4/2 to 5Y 4/1), subangular to subrounded, very fine to rare medium sand-rich mud layers in the upper part of the core. Abundant (> 50%), subangular to subrounded very fine to rare (< 10%), coarse pebbles. Slight decrease in sand and silt components down core. | Glacial marine | AIOM | Bulk combustion | 28520.0 ± 300.0 | Calibrated age for default reservoir correction not available | Calibrated age for default reservoir correction not available | None |
