| At 12 of the sites that have imbricated cobbles, clast orientations were measured to derive the palaeocurrent direction. |
|
| This clast can be lithologically attributed to the Upper Metamorphic Unit, but the Eocene age obtained on this rock has not been found in samples in situ. |
|
| In one class of breccia, clast material, breccia formation, and cement are all closely related in time. |
|
| A large, angular semi-pelite clast contains two tectonic fabrics, one of which is parallel to bedding within the clast whereas the other is oblique to it. |
|
| Thickness, lithic content and clast angularity decrease from Alto Los Volcanes and El Mirador relieves towards N, E and S directions. |
|
| Especially noteworthy in thin section is the scarcity of potassium feldspar in any of the igneous clast types in this section. |
|
| A terminal grade is the smallest grain size to which an entrained clast may be reduced by crushing and abrasion under a glacier. |
|
| Graded bedding, in which size decreases from bottom to top, is common: because agitated waters rarely subside at once, declining transport power causes a gradual upward decrease in maximum clast size. |
|
| A very few clast imbrications at Robins show transport from the north, suggesting that transport directions are also unchanged. |
|
| In some sedimentary breccias, termed 'granite conglomerate', they are the dominant clast type. |

| It is noteworthy that CLAST members will save money in adopting hands-on, inquiry-driven science kit curricula. |
