The Juab Limestone is a geologic formation in Utah. It preserves fossils dating back to the Ordovician period. [1] [2]
The Williamsport Sandstone is a sandstone geologic formation in West Virginia, Virginia, Pennsylvania, and Maryland. The formation includes the Cedar Creek Limestone member. Near Cumberland, Maryland it includes the Cedar Creek Limestone member. It preserves fossils dating back to the Silurian period.
The Maxville Limestone is a geologic formation in Ohio. It preserves fossils dating back to the Carboniferous period.
The Harrodsburg Limestone is a geologic formation, a member of the Sanders Group of Indiana Limestone, of Mississippian age. It was named for Harrodsburg in southern Monroe County, Indiana by T. C. Hopkins and C. E. Siebenthal. It is made up primarily of calcarenite and calcirudite. It also may include some beds of dolomite and shale.
The Cape Limestone is a geologic formation in Missouri. It preserves fossils dating back to the Ordovician period.
The Langston Formation is a geologic formation in Idaho and Utah. It preserves fossils dating back to the Cambrian period. The formation is composed of bluish-gray limestone, weathering to a buff color, often with rounded edges.
The Notch Peak Formation is a geologic formation in Utah. It preserves fossils dating back to the Cambrian period.
The Ute Limestone is a geologic formation in Utah. It preserves fossils dating back to the Cambrian period.
The Dunderberg Shale is a geologic formation in Nevada and Utah.
The Chainman Shale is a geologic formation in Utah, mostly identical to the White Pine Shale. It preserves fossils dating back to the Carboniferous period.
The Deseret Limestone, also known as the Pine Canyon Formation, is a geologic formation in Utah. It was formed by the Panthalassa ocean around 340 Ma. It preserves marine fossils dating back to the Carboniferous period or Mississippian age, mostly consisting of tabulate and rugose corals, and other marine invertebrates; vertebrates are represented by conodonts. The Deseret is a 500-foot thick layer of dolomitic limestone with chert, with a basal layer of black shale that is host rock for many Utah caves such as Timpanogos Cave National Monument.
The Ely Limestone is a geologic formation in Nevada and Utah. It preserves fossils dating back to the Carboniferous period.
The Great Blue Limestone is a geologic formation in Utah. It preserves fossils dating back to the Carboniferous period.

The Colton Formation is a geologic formation in Utah. Its age is based on its position between the Upper Cretaceous-Paleocene North Horn Formation and overlying Green River Formation.
The Virgin Formation is a geologic formation in Utah. It preserves fossils dating back to the Triassic period.
The Thaynes Group, Thaynes Formation in older literature, is a geologic group in eastern Idaho, western Wyoming, Utah and eastern Nevada. It includes the Sinbad Formation, Virgin Formation and Shnabkaib Formation. The Thaynes Group is of marine origin. Its formations are interbedded with layers of the non-marine Moenkopi Group.
