clasts

Leier first studied loose pebbles and rocks, also known as clasts, when he was looking at sand dunes in Wyoming and noticed that the clasts seemed to spread away from each other in an almost organized fashion.

Systematic grid sampling demonstrates that nearly all of the clasts are derived from vertebrate sources bones = 27%, coprolites = 20%, probable coprolites = 53%, and invertebrate body fossils are nearly absent.

From levels I and II, 112 wood and 166 clasts of peat were sampled in October 1995 and 13 wood samples in September 1996.
