| contents | The three sites (717, 718, and 719) drilled on the distal Bengal Fan during ODP Leg 116 cored turbidite sediments almost exclusively. Calcareous nannofossils were recovered sporadically and, although all of them probably have been redeposited, it is possible to date the sediments at all three sites with reasonable confidence. Site 717 penetrated the uppermost middle Miocene Catinaster coalitus highest occurrence datum and represents the most nearly continuous succession of turbidites. Site 718 penetrated the lower Miocene, well below the Helicosphaera ampliaperta highest occurrence datum, but this site contains a major late Pliocene to mid-Pleistocene hiatus. Site 719, the shallowest hole, penetrated only into the upper Miocene. Identification of several critical lowest occurrence datums allows using the poorly constrained but more numerous highest occurrence datums for comparison with the model succession (zonal markers) and thereby to derive a reasonably accurate time framework for the sediments. |
