A re-evaluation of the age and nature of Cenozoic erratics from McMurdo Sound, Antarctica

Late Eocene and Miocene marine erratics recovered from Minna Bluff and Mt. Discovery in Southern Victoria Land, Antarctica range from micritic cemented, variably sorted sandstones and conglomerates to impure micritic limestones. Lithologically, the erratics are similar to strata of the same age reco...
