| 0.375 | 0.00 | 0.75 | Silt-peat-sand alternating strata. The thickness of interlayers of pale-yellow inequigranular sands of polymict composition is up to 6 cm, grey silts are 1-2 cm and peat lay-ers up to 1 cm thick. Lamination is horizontal. | |
| 0.900 | 0.75 | 1.05 | Peat-sand alternating strata. Brown-colored, loose and fibrous peat with 1.5-6 cm thickness of interlayers. Pale-yellow medium- and coarse-grained polymict sands with 2-6 cm thickness of interlayers. Lamination is horizontal. | |
| 1.450 | 1.05 | 1.85 | Silt-sand-peat alternating strata. Dark-grey-colored silt with the thickness of inter-layers up to 1 cm. Pale-yellow fine-grained polymict sand with the thickness of interlayers up to 1 cm. | Peat is brown-colored and loose, the plant remains are slightly decayed and the thick-ness of interlayers is 1.5-6 cm. Lamination is wavy. In the 1.65 to 1.73 m interval there is a tree trunk. |
| 2.900 | 1.85 | 3.95 | Silt-peat alternating strata. The thickness of grey silt and brown peat interlayers is up to 1 cm. Lamination is plicational. |
