Thin Sections from Top Bellerophon

Sorry for the hiatus,

but here are the good news:

I have thin sections from some very interesting beds from the top Bellerophon Fmt. directly below the contact with the Werfen Fmt. (That would be directly at the P/T boundary). There are some very interesting sedimentary features where it is currently not clear if they are roots or bioturbation by some sorts of animals. I will prepare pretty pictures (as far as carbonates can be pretty). There are also some very small fragments of fossils: one gastropod and small shell fragments (Any hints for papers for gastropod identification in the Bellerophon Fmt. most welcome. No, it is not Bellerophonella).
I have found a new home for ProfileLogger: profilelogger.berlios.de. Not much to see, yet, but if anyone is interested in screen shots (or even contributing code, documentation, fossil patterns, lithology patterns, translations, etc.) - go have a look or drop me an email.
