Fig. 11. (A) A detailed sedimentary log through AU3 to AU7 showing sedimentology, architectural elements and key sur-
faces within the upper stratigraphical compartment at locality S4 (measured section 10). The compartment is here sand-
stone-dominated and composed of upward-coarsening and -fining units. (B) Photo of the locality S4. In the uppermost part
of the compartment, the sandstone-dominated WDDL architectural element is split by an irregular 10 to 15 m thick
Palaeogene dolerite sill intrusion. Photographs of lithofacies above the SU2/TS5 unconformity contain; (C) mixed belem-
nites and gravel; and (D) rare silicified tree trunks. (E) At locality S4, the lower part of the upper stratigraphical compart-
