S N rock B rock B deposited A 1 in a desert A fossil plant remains rock sequence C sandstone coal seam Figure 1a location of fossil coral (see Figure 1b) feature D Refer to Figure 1a. Figure 1b (a) Describe the surface A-A 1. [2] (b) (i) Describe the texture of rock B. [3] (ii) Name rock type B. [1]
3 3 (c) (i) Identify feature D shown in the coral in Figure 1b. [1] (ii) Account for the presence of the fossil coral in the desert deposit rock B. [3] (d) A student has incorrectly concluded that the plant fossils in Figure 1a represent a death assemblage. (i) Explain what is meant by a death assemblage. [2] (ii) Explain the evidence which indicates that the student s conclusion is incorrect. [2] (e) Evaluate the statement the fossil coral was originally deposited within rock sequence C. Give reasons for your answer. [3] [Total 17 marks] Turn over.

North Coconino Sandstone South Permian Key: unmetamorphosed Precambrian rocks sandstone shale Redwall Limestone Carboniferous limestone schist and gneiss Q Q 1 F-F fault P Colorado River Cambrian P 1 Not to scale Vishnu Group Precambrian F Figure 2 (a) Many of the rocks in Figure 2 can be dated using their fossil content. The Vishnu Group (schist and gneiss) cannot be dated in this way because it lacks fossils. (i) State two reasons why the Vishnu Group lacks fossils. [2] (ii) With reference to Figure 2, state which one of the following cephalopods (goniatite, ceratite or ammonite) is most likely to be of use in dating the Carboniferous Redwall Limestone. Give a reason for your answer. [2] Cephalopod... Reason......
5 5 (b) Identify the type of dip-slip fault (normal, reverse or thrust) shown in the Precambrian rocks in Figure 2. Give a reason for your answer. [2] Type of fault... Reason... (c) Two geological boundaries P-P 1 and Q-Q 1 are marked on Figure 2. Both are unconformities. (i) State two pieces of evidence which indicate that boundary P-P 1 is an unconformity. [2] (ii)... Describe the evidence in Figure 2 which indicates that boundary Q-Q 1 is an unconformity. Give a reason for your answer. [2] (d) The Coconino Sandstone has a texture and cross bedding which indicates that it is the deposit of aeolian sand dunes blown from the North. (i) Describe the texture of the Coconino Sandstone which would lead geologists to conclude that it is the deposit of aeolian sand dunes. [2] (ii) Explain how aeolian conditions cause this texture. [2] Turn over.
