Red Mountain Formation, Silurian Period Jefferson County, Alabama This slab of marine sandstone shows marks made by currents in the shallow sea that once covered Alabama, perhaps between a barrier island and the beach. The worn appearance of this specimen reflects its use as a curb stone on First Avenue in turn-of-the-century Birmingham
