Apologies, but I do not know what unconformity you are referring to. However, I can tell you that conglomerate IS present as an unconformity in many cases due to the nature of it's formation. Conglomerate is often produced during a flash-flood, so all rock strata from the period appear interrupted by the unconformity of Conglomerate which was deposited very quickly, then after burial was cemented and lithified. My answer, therefore, is that conglomerate is common as an unconformity.
