The Cimarron Ridge Formation is a Mesozoic geologic formation in the United States. Dinosaur remains are among the fossils that have been recovered from the formation, although none have yet been referred to a specific genus. [1]
The formation takes its name from Cimarron Ridge in southwestern Colorado. [2]
The Akazaki Formation is a Mesozoic geologic formation in Kyushu, Japan.
The Dakhla Formation is a Maastrichtian geologic formation in Egypt. Dinosaur remains are among the fossils that have been recovered from the formation, although none have yet been referred to a specific genus.
The Gokwe Formation is an Early Cretaceous geologic formation in Zimbabwe. Dinosaur remains are among the fossils that have been recovered from the formation, although none have yet been referred to a specific genus. Sediments of the formation may have been laid down in a small shallow lake, carried by intermittent floods from a land surface surrounding the lake on which aeolian transport of sand took place. More likely the animals died on a dry lake bed, and their bones were exposed to a period of desiccation, later floods would scatter the fragments and incorporate them in sediment.
