Excerpt from Neogene Paleontology in the Northern Dominican Republic 18., The Superfamily Volutacea (in Part) (Mollusca, Gastropoda)
Elsewhere the basal beds of the Neogene consist of the Bulla Conglomerate, resting unconformably upon the Mesozoic basement, and containing large granitic boulders that mark the Shoreline of the Late Miocene marine transgression. The Bulla Conglomerate rapidly grades upward into a marine facies known as the Cer cado Formation, which is clearly very shallow water, with smaller boulders mixed in among the beautifully preserved molluscan shells.
