The "Taconic Unconformity" is an angular unconformity exposed from eastern New York State to the Gaspe peninsula. As the Taconic orogeny subsided in early Silurian time, uplifts and folds in the Hudson Valley region were beveled by erosion. Upon this surface sediments began to accumulate, derived from remaining uplifts in the New England region.

The Taconic Unconformity, near Catskill, NY. The Taconic unconformity is a major unconformity created during the Taconic orogeny, exposed from eastern New York State to the Gaspe peninsula. [1] The orogeny was a long one that comprised multiple bursts; it primarily dated to the end of the Ordovician, and the underlying rocks are primarily this age.
Any angular unconformity is proof that a tectonic phase took place between the deposition of the layers below and on top of it. It is important to know if the tectonic phase was a longer event or if it was local or regional. Tectonic phases can be important events that affected large areas.
