The Floral Formation is a geologic formation in Saskatchewan. It preserves fossils.
The Monongahela Formation is a geologic formation in West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Maryland. It preserves fossils dating back to the Carboniferous and Permian periods.
The Liberty Formation is a geologic formation in Ohio and Indiana. It preserves fossils dating back to the Ordovician period.
The St. Louis Formation is a geologic formation in Iowa. It preserves fossils dating back to the Carboniferous period.
The Deadwood Formation is a geologic formation of the Williston Basin and Western Canada Sedimentary Basin. It is present in parts of North and South Dakota and Montana in the United States, and in parts of Alberta, Saskatchewan, and southwestern corner of Manitoba in Canada. It is of Late Cambrian to Early Ordovician age and was named for exposures in Whitewood Creek near Deadwood, South Dakota. It is a significant aquifer in some areas, and its conglomerates yielded significant quantities of gold in the Black Hills of South Dakota.
The Wabaunsee Formation is a geologic formation in Kansas. It preserves fossils dating back to the Carboniferous period.
The Morrow Formation is a geologic formation in Oklahoma. It preserves fossils dating back to the Carboniferous period.
The Blaine Formation is a geologic formation in Oklahoma. It preserves fossils dating back to the Permian period.
The Dotsero Formation is a geologic formation in Colorado. It preserves fossils dating back to the Cambrian period.
The Ouray Formation is a geologic formation in Colorado. It preserves fossils dating back to the Devonian period.
The Animas Formation is a geologic formation in Colorado. It preserves fossils dating back to the Paleogene period.
The Amherstburg Formation is a geologic formation in Ontario, Canada and Michigan, United States. It preserves fossils dating back to the Devonian period.
The Wood Mountain Formation is a geologic formation in Saskatchewan. It preserves fossils dating back to the Neogene period.
The Tunnel Mountain Formation is a geologic formation that is present on the western edge of the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin in the Canadian Rockies of western Alberta. Named after Tunnel Mountain near Banff, it was deposited during the Early Pennsylvanian sub-period of the Carboniferous period.
The Alexo Formation a stratigraphic unit of Late Devonian age. It is present on the western edge of the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin in the central Rocky Mountains and foothills of Alberta. The formation consists primarily of dolomite. It is locally fossiliferous and includes remains of marine animals such as brachiopods and conodonts.
The Simla Formation is a stratigraphic unit of Late Devonian age. It is present on the western edge of the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin in the Rocky Mountains and foothills of west-central Alberta and east-central British Columbia. It consists primarily of carbonate rocks and siltstone, and was named for Mount Simla in northern Jasper National Park by D. J. McLaren and E. W. Mountjoy in 1962.
The Southesk Formation is a stratigraphic unit of Late Devonian age. It is present on the western edge of the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin in the Rocky Mountains and foothills of Alberta and southeastern British Columbia. It was named for the Southesk River in Jasper National Park by D.J. McLaren in 1955.
The Kootenay Group, originally called the Kootenay Formation, is a geologic unit of latest Jurassic to earliest Cretaceous age in the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin that is present in the southern and central Canadian Rockies and foothills. It includes economically important deposits of high-rank bituminous and semi-anthracite coal, as well as plant fossils and dinosaur trackways.
The Bois Blanc Formation is a geologic formation in Michigan. It preserves fossils dating back to the Devonian period.
The Spray River Group is a stratigraphic unit of Triassic age. It is present on the western edge of the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin in the foothills and Rocky Mountains of western Alberta. It was originally described as the Spray River Formation by E.M. Kindle in 1924 and was later raised to group status. Its type section is located in the Spray River gorge at the southern end of Sulphur Mountain.
