GRD010NT0: Operculina seen in elongate cross-section with longitudinal zone between plates that extinguish simultaneously (~20%). Other broken bioclastis (~40%). Pellets and other dense micrite bodies (20%). Most of these seem distorted. Microsparrite filling (20%). This seems to fill central chamber in Operculina. Some of the dense micrite appears to outline multi-chamber small forams. (J. Gee)
