1. The Glauconite Sandstone is a persistent stratigraphic unit.

2. Glauconite, detrital carbonate skeletal debris, marine fossils, and collophane are commonly present.

3. Glauconite as a typical facies mineral is generally regarded as accompanied with transgression sequence, with a low sedimentation rate.

4. Glauconite, hematite - limonite and some chlorite are formed in syndiagenesis.

5. The main sediments are made up of terrigenous clastic deposits. Other resedimented clastic constituents are: ooid, fossil clasts, plant clasts and glauconite, etc.

6. On the basis of riddling various nonmetal minerals and the application test of bentonite, zeolite, apatite, vermiculite, glauconite, expanded pearlite etc.

7. It is helpful to confirm the sedimentary environment by analyzing glauconite formation.
