- The middle Miocene (CNM7, CNM8–9 and CNM10) clasts embraced reworked nannofossils of the early-middle Miocene, Oligocene, Eocene, and Cretaceous;
- The early-middle Miocene (CNM6–7) clasts included reworked nannofossils of the Oligocene, Eocene, and Cretaceous;

Appendix A
- Sampling intervals and sample types (matrix or clast);
- Percentages of nannofossils in the images captured by the Leica DMLSP optical polarizing light microscope, dating of sediments and rock types;
- Macroscopic observations such as consolidation degree of samples, sediment color, fissility occurrence, and characteristic sound during samples’ homogenization that is indicative of quartz presence;
- Parameters measured during each Rock-Eval pyrolysis run such as S1, S2, and S3 peaks;
- Parameters calculated from the Rock-Eval experimental data such as Tmax, HΙ, and OI, and TOC, MinC, and carbonate contents.
- Soft: the rock can be broken between fingers;
- Soft to semi-consolidated: the rock can be broken between fingers and a hard object (e.g., mortar or table surface) with normal effort;
- Semi-consolidated: the rock can be broken between fingers and a hard object (e.g., mortar or table surface) with a lot of effort;
- Semi- to well-consolidated: the rock can be broken between pestle and mortar with normal effort;
- Well-consolidated: the rock can be broken between pestle and mortar with a lot of effort.
