Indeterminate Theropod remains have been recovered from it.[1] As well as those of the dyrosaurid Hyposaurus. It consists of a lower unit of fine grained meandering channel sediments, separated by an erosive contact with overlying meandering to braided river channel sandstones.[2] See also{{Portal|Geology|Paleontology|Dinosaurs|Cretaceous|Prehistory of Africa}}
