Included geologic units: Yeso Formation or Group. Includes some Bone Spring Limestone (plus/minus the Victorio Peak Dolomite) along the margin of the Delaware Basin. The term Clear Fork/Clearfork is commonly used along the Texas border; Yeso and Clear Fork do not appear to be perfect synonyms, but the Yeso model unit would include the Clear Fork strata.
