Summary:
Sangerville Formation, in the Buckfield area is divided into (ascending): Moody Brook, Berry Ledge, Noyes Mountain, Patch Mountain, and Turner Members. Buckfield Group not used. [Intent to revise the above units is not stated, but subdivision of the Sangerville and its lower contact with Anasagunticook Member of Waterville Formation are clearly shown in the stratigraphic column.] Order of younging within the sequence differs from reports of previous workers. Graded sequences suggest an inverted lithologic package. Rocks in area subjected to three deformational events.
