Description The Klippfisk Formation represents a condensed carbonate succession occurring in platform areas (Kutling Member), where it consists of limestones and marls, and is often glauconitic. The limestones may have a nodular appearance. Fossil debris, dominated by Inoceramus prisms may be abundant. The formation is strongly bioturbated.
In Kong Karls Land the coeval Tordenskjoldberget Member has a similar lithology and is assigned to the Klippfisk Formation.
The Klippfisk Formation is the carbonate platform time-equivalent of the Knurr Formation (Hammerfest Basin) and the Rurikfjellet Formation (Svalbard). The unit has als
