At the part of the shell where the cones are exposed, the inner shell layer is mm thick and the outer layer is mm thick. Although the remaining 18 shells were more recrystallized than the two just described, several of them showed, on the surface immediately under the outer shell layer, an irregularly polygonal pattern reflecting the presence of major prisms. It should be mentioned, as a general

It should be mentioned, as a general conclusion, that a polygonal or honey- comb pattern on the surface of a shell layer does not necessarily indicate that.
