Figure 3. Cross-sections of the 16 Triassic fissure localities described in the text. Except for the top quarried level that retained the original limestone surface, the vertical extents of the fissures are generally unknown due to earlier quarrying operations or unexcavated base levels. The upper and lower parts of some fissure fills were also obscured by quarry scree. The uppermost parts of fissures 1, 5, 8, 11, 12, 14, 15 and 16 were observed through binoculars and details described from those observations, telephoto slides and hand collection of fallen rocks. The remaining sections were completed from in situ rock collections. Note the diversity of morphology and fill lithologies. The locations of the reptile bones and the productive palynological samples are shown.
