What is recorded here

Tresilian Bay features a sea cliff composed mainly of Carboniferous limestone, formed around 340–320 million years ago through the accumulation of marine sediments. The bay is notable for its well-exposed coastal geology and the presence of fossil-rich rock layers that provide insights into ancient marine environments.
