The Neverita Zone

Middle Dome, Kettleman Hills, California

A Google Earth street car perspective that I edited and processed through photoshop. The view is slightly west of north to exposures of the Middle Pliocene San Joaquin Formation, Middle Dome area, Kettleman Hills, California. San Joaquin strata in middle ground belong to the Neverita Zone, which here produces abundant beautifully preserved gastropods of the Neverita reclusiana variety.
