The Fish Haven Dolomite is an Ordovician period geologic formation in southern Idaho, northeastern Nevada, and northwestern Utah.[1]

Geology

It was named for Fish Haven Creek, in the Bear River Range near the Utah-Idaho state line.[1] Other locations it is found in include the Schell Creek Range, Goshute Mountains, Deep Creek Range, Pilot Range, and Toana John Mountains.[1]

The Dolomite formation overlies the Eureka Quartzite formation, and underlies the Laketown Dolomite formation.[1]

The Fish Haven Dolomite, like the Ely Springs Dolomite, was formed by subtidal to intertidal shallow shelf carbonates, deposited in water depths of Шаблон:Convert or less in lagoonal and shallow shoal settings.[1]

Fossils

The formation preserves fossils dating back to the Ordovician period of the Paleozoic Era.[2]
