The sediments are dolomitic and clay rich mudstones and siltstones with intraformational mud conglomerates and rare cherts. The effects of flood and drought are reflected in lithological changes related to fluctuations in the physical and chemical characteristics of water in the drainage basin and in groundwater penetrating lithified sediment.
