GRD018FT0: Mottled grey chert. Darker portions of the chert are cloudy and contain a minor amount of opaques. Poorly preserved, recrystallized radiolarians are abundant throughout the thin section. Preservation of the radiolarians appears to be better in the dark areas of the thin section. (C. Eichler)
