Toarcian coral reefs

Today we saddled up the "sheep hauler" to look at some Toarcian coral reefs!






This was one of my favorite sites! We say some amazing coral reefs, that built up right after a major biotic crisis, the Toarcian Oceanic Anoxic Event!
Loads of phaceloid corals!!!
I love me some coral reefs!

corals and microbes!
Patch reefs!
Thrombolites!

Phaceloid corals!

Classic thrombolites!
The reefs were pretty awesome and being lugged around like sheep was fun too.... All in all, everyone had a pretty great day, look how happy we all are!
