Cañadas farm, Cerro de la Higuera, Montejícar, Granada, Andalucía, Spain

These specimens are found in banded gypsum and marl from the Trias in a Keuper facies characteristic of the Cortijo Cañadas, in the N of the Montejícar municipal district. In the area there are some interesting ruins of plaster kilns.
