It mainly contains turbidites, but is interrupted by a glacial diamictite, and tops out with sand and siltstones (these dated to 565 Ma).It corresponds to the lower portion of the Connecting Point Group In some areas the Drook Formation continues from the base of the group to the base of the Mistaken Point Formation; elsewhere (in central / south Avalon) the Briscal, Gaskiers and Mall Bay Formations wedge in.
