SOFT-SEDIMENT DEFORMATION STRUCTURES AND GRANULOMETRIC PROPERTIES DISTRIBUTION IN AJALI SANDSTONE RIDGES, WESTERN AFIKPO BASIN, UTURU, NIGERIA
Three Ajali sandstone ridges (L1, L2 and L3) at Uturu being quarried for construction sands were studied for soft-sediment deformation structures (SSDS) and granulometric properties distributions. SSDS that includes recumbents foresets, sands dykes, flame structures and fluid escape tubes were ident...
