Micro Scale Cross Laminations in the Sandstone of Khari Nadi Formation (Aquitanian) from Laiyari Area, Southwestern Kachchh

The asymmetric micro scale cross ripple laminations formed under unidirectional traction current are noted from the Aquitanian sandstone of Laiyari area of south western Kachchh, Gujarat. The micro facies of micro scale cross laminations represent lower velocity migration at shallow depth waves in littoral and marine environments. Asymmetric ripples signify net landward unidirectional transport of shallow marine water.
