The General Petroleum No. 45-5-G core is critical to interpretation of Permian/Pennsylvanian stratigraphy in the Colorado Plateau region. Recent fusulinid studies suggest that erroneous ages have been assigned in the geological literature to part of that cored interval and that these ages have been extended regionally through mechanical log correlations. Significant interpretive changes result from the proposed age revision.
