Sixtymile Formation

398:, this upper contact is a disconformity. Away from the center, the strata of the Sixtymile Formation, an angular discordance between the formations of 6° to 10° can be seen. This unconformity has an irregular hilly surface. In case of the Sixtymile Formation, a small amount of relief, 20 m (66 ft) to 30 m (98 ft), in the Sixtymile Canyon area was the result of resistance to erosion of the Middle Member of the Sixtymile Formation (fig. 4). Local erosion removed all of the Upper Member of the Sixtymile from all but the central part of the Chuar syncline prior to the deposition of the Tapeats Sandstone 108: 230: 207: 362:
to 27 m (89 ft) thick, consists of beds of a heterogeneous mixture of laminated hematitic sandstone; thin-bedded micaceous sandstone containing rock fragments; monomict and polymict breccia; crudely bedded sandstone; and thin-bedded soft sandy siltstone. Individual beds are discontinuous and local in extent and often grade into each other. Blocks of dolomite from the underlying Walcott Member often occur in the lower member.
370:. Chert is common to abundant within the Middle Member. The middle of this member contains numerous thin discontinuous beds of chalky-white chert. The lower part of the Middle Member is purplish red, which grades upward to a creamy, mottled-and-streaked red. This member is resistant to erosion and characteristically forms cliffs. This member forms small hills within its upper contact on either side of the 353:. In 2001, Timmons and others reassigned what had been identified as the lowest part of the Sixtymile Formation to the underlying Kwagunt Formation. The age of the Sixtymile Formation was regarded to be Precambrian until 2018, when dating of detrital zircons from it determined it to be Cambrian in age and, as a result, it is assigned to the lowermost formation of the Tonto Group. 382:. The sandstone is pale red to brown, and contains scattered rock fragments. These rock fragments include chalky-white chert derived from the middle member. Some of the sandstone exhibits fluvial crossbedding and is fanglomeratic. Massive weathering maroon conglomerate is present in the lower part of the Upper Member. It grades laterally into the sandstone. 374:. The upper contact of the Middle Member with the overlying Upper Member is sharp and unconformable. The basal sandstones of the Upper Member cut about 1.5 m (4.9 ft) into the beds of the middle member. In inaccessible exposures, conglomerate of the Upper Member appears to unconformably overly the middle member. 361:
The Sixtymile Formation is typically subdivided into three informal members. They are (1) a lower red siltstone, sandstone, and breccia member; (2) a middle cherty quartzite member; and (3) an upper breccia-bearing sandstone and conglomerate member. The lower member, which is 22 m (72 ft)

The Upper Member of the Sixtymile Formation, which is about 12 m (39 ft), consists of fine-grained fluvial and fanglomeratic sandstone that grades abruptly into sandy conglomerate toward the axis of the syncline. It is only preserved in a narrow trough-shaped area in the center of the

However, in 2018, the dating of detrital zircons by Karl Karlstrom established that the Sixtymile Formation as being Cambrian in age, between 520 and 509 million years old. Thus, the Sixtymile Formation accumulated in lacustrine, fluvial, and shallow marine environment and are preserved within

The basal contact of the Walcott Member with the overlying Sixtymile Formation is conformable. Typically, the contact between the underlying black shale typical of the Walcott and overlying basal red sandstones of the Sixtymile Formation consists of a 1.5 m (4.9 ft) interval that is
