Fig. 9.15 Left side . Tojeira 1 section with sample members 6.2-6.29 (After Stam 1987 ); ammo-
nite zones ( Planula and Platynota Zones) of Mouterde et al. ( 1973 ) also are shown. This section is
immediately overlain by the poorly exposed sandy Cabrito Formation. Right side : Tojeira 2 section
with sample numbers 12.1-12.11 and 11.1-11.23 of Stam ( 1987 ) (Source: Agterberg 1990 ,
Fig. 3.2)
Figure 9.15 shows two sections in the Montejunto area in Portugal originally
sampled by Stam ( 1987 ) and later resampled by Agterberg et al. ( 1990 ). The
purpose of this project was to perform quantitative analysis of occurrence of Middle
and Late Jurassic Foraminifera in this area and its implications for the Grand Banks
of Newfoundland that can only be sampled by drilling. The Tojeira 1 section with
sample numbers 6.2-6.29 (after Stam 1987 ) is shown on the left side of Fig. 9.15 .
It is continuously exposed and occurs about 2 km southeast of the Tojeira 2 section
