Description:
Fluvial sediments in paleovaileys cut in the Ashburton surface of the Davenport province of central Australia form terrace remnants that appear to retain their original depositional tops and have probably existed as subaerial landforms since their inception. Marine fossils in sediments conformable with the fluvial sediments near the southeast margin of the province give a Cambrian age for the terraces; the Ashburton surface forming the ridgetops between the paleovalleys is Cambrian or older.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Stewart, A J -- Blake, D H -- Ollier, C D -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1986 Aug 15;233(4765):758-61.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17835183" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
