p.360: 2.1.3. Leyderry member (Bathonian?) These polygenic conglomerates are 50 m thick along the Sépey-Diablerets road and less than 25 m in the Grande Eau gorge. They have no internal structures (disorganized conglomerates) and elements are decimetric. The main elements are dolomites, gneiss, quartzites, black limestones, rhyodacites, dolerites, rhyolites, green sandstones, volcanoclastic rocks and green rocks of probable metamorphic origin. The calcareous gritty matrix looks like the Raverette member but we can find contemporaneous resedimented ooliths from the base to the top of the member. Based on an analogy with the findings of Lempicka Munch (1996) on the Infra-Niesen Fm, in which ooliths are of Bathonian age, we assumed that ooliths described herein are also of Bathonian age. Therefore, a Bajocian age is assumed for the underlying Raverette member, in which no ooliths are found.
