Abstract: | Clay balls deposited as a washover fan at Stone Harbor, New Jersey, are probably fragments of a bed of Pleistocene continental shelf clay, based on physical characteristics, clay mineralogy, and radiocarbon ages of 20,135–24,630 yr BP. They may not all originate in the same area and are probably undergoing mixing with modern organic material. |
