In a participatory approach, combining local and scientific knowledge, sixteen sites were selected, representative for distinct relief positions, parent material (sand stone and silt stone), land use history, and erosion hazard.
Eventually stone bunds silt-up, and their water harvesting efficiency is lost.

In Europe, until recently, governments have shown little interest in shale gas — a natural gas that is stored in organically rich rocks and interbedded with layers of shaley silt stone and sandstone.
The lithology of the Xu 1 Member (T3x1), Xu 3 Member (T3x3), and Xu 5 Member (T3x5) is mainly black shale and mudstone with gray silt stone and sandstone.
T02, T08, T24, and T31 were located on claystone, T09, T23, T29, and T32 on the sandstone, and T21, T25, T03, T10, and T33 on the silt stone unit.
As The New York Times quoted him, "When I saw this slab of silt stone mixed with volcanic ash in which the creature is embedded, I was bowled over".
