Question

As a hint, everything crumbled in the photo is mudstone and the solid block is all sandstone.

You also need to label the layers of sandstone w/ which section of bouma facies they represent. 

2. Draw a stratigraphic column of the turbidite shown in photograph 1 using the stratigraphic column
template below. Use measurements along the vertical dashed line for the thickness of each part of the
turbidite and include the mudstone below and above the turbidite in your column. Include the scale,
lithology, and grain size (as best you can tell). Label the sedimentary structures (LO5) and Bouma facies
(L09) that are present at the location(s) they are present in the column.
