Figure 8. Associated trace fossils and bioturbate textures. 1 - 2 ) Sandstones with non-descript bioturbated textures resulting from a boxwork of randomly oriented tubes are locally confined to laterally continuous strata in which the original stratification is totally obscured by abundant, indistinct burrows ( 2 close-up image of 1 ). 3 ) Irregular-shaped occurrence of indistinct tube network. 4 - 6 ) Pear-shaped occurrence of networks of indistinct, interconnected tubes enveloped in massive ( 4 – 5; 5 close-up image of 4 ) and well-stratified ( 6 ) Clarens Formation sandstone (For more detailed description and interpretation of these features, see
Bordy et al. 2004).
