Abstract Mixed siliciclastic and carbonate sediments are common in the stratigraphic record, but fully homogenised mixes are not. Many occurrences of mixed sediment sequences are dominated by end‐members with stacking of ‘nearly pure’ lithfacies (e.g. cyclothems containing alternating sandstone, limestone and coal units). The Plio‐Pleistocene sediments within south‐west Florida provide insights into the occurrence of fully homogenised siliciclastic/carbonate deposits. In all defined environments from lagoon to supratidal to inner tidal to beach to offshore to coral reef, quartz sand coexists with carbonates. Perhaps the key feature that allowed full homogenisation of the sediments within all facies and subfacies was the relatively shallow water ( |
