Some anti-creationists assert that flood geology cannot account for chalk layers, but creationist point out that chalk formation is highly episodic. Snelling showed that massive blooms of foraminifera and coccolithophores could create site like the White Hills of Dover.

Diatoms are very similar to coccolithophores and foraminifera. Diatomite, like chalk, is due to the build of microscopic shells. Thus the Pisco formation is proof for Snelling's argument for | Diatoms are very similar to coccolithophores and foraminifera. Diatomite, like chalk, is due to the build of microscopic shells.
