- The uniqueness: this unconformity relation is very rare, characterizes of Caledonian Orogeny, a geological boundary has significant connotation for science and education.
- Conservation Status: Not yet protected. This geological heritage is located on the river bank, under the traffic roads so it is easily ruined
