“…Because of uncertainties in the correlation of the Tesuque and Ancha Formations with other Santa Fe beds in and adjacent to the Jemez Mountains, however, the term Santa Fe Formation, as used by Denny, Smith, and Galusha, is used in this paper. In the northern Jemez Mountains, the Santa Fe Formation includes the sediments above the Abiquiu Tuff of Smith (1938) and below the Lobato Basalt (new name, this paper). East of the Jemez Mountains, the Santa Fe Formation includes the sediments exposed below the Puye Formation and below the basalts of Cerros del Rio, although it is recognized that the uppermost of these beds east of the Kio Grande belongs to the Ancha Formation.…”
