This is basically a principle of superposition problem. Think of it as each strata (rock layer) as a pancake stacked on one another. Except over time, other events such as folding, intrusions, erosion, and faulting took place. It helps to start with the oldest event/layer. So here goes the list from oldest to youngest:

  • J - Dolomite
  • W - Mudstone
  • B - Muav Shale
  • E - Limestone
  • M - Sandstone
  • S- Shale
  • V - Dolomite
  • L - Mudstone
  • Then everything folded to form the Syncline
  • X - Fault
  • G - Basalt Dike
  • Z - Unconformity
  • C - Clay
  • T - Grey Limestone
  • Q - Dolomite
  • N - Shale
  • D - Basalt DIke
  • F - Fault
  • R - Unconformity
  • Y - Sandstone
  • P - Siltstone
  • H - Erosion
  • A - Gravel
