Singkapan batuan ini tersingkap di cerun potongan Jalan Maran-Jerantut berhampiran Batu Kapur Kota Gelanggi yang merupakan sebahagian dari Kumpulan Gua Musang. Singkapan ini adalah sebahagian dari Formasi Kerum yang dicirikan oleh lapisan volkaniklastik di mana klasnya bersaiz pebel hingga buntar adalah terdiri dari bahan piroklastik. Menariknya pada singkapan ini memperlihatkan batuan sedimen yang masih lembut telah 'tenggelam' ke dalam sedimen konglomerat.

"TAXONOMY IS OFTEN UNDERVALUE AS A GLORIFIED FORM OF FILLING WITH EACH SPECIES IN ITS FOLDER, LIKE A STAMP IN ITS PRESCRIBED PLACE IN AN ALBUM; BUT TAXONOMY IS A FUNDAMENTAL AND DYNAMIC SCIENCE, DEDICATED TO EXPLORING THE CAUSES OF RELATIONSHIPS AND SIMILARITIES AMONG ORGANISMS." - S.J. GOULD 1990.
