The formation is resistant to erosion and is largely barren, but at a few places there are lenses or interbeds filled with finely preserved fossils. The formation overlies the Viche Formation, and is overlain by the lower Onzole Formation. The Angostura Formation is time-equivalent with the fossiliferous Gatún Formation of Panama.[1]
