The best way to model interflow sediment
Happy New year all!
I would like to create a model for the coarse sediment within a larger sediment package using refine model option. It is mostly settled in a groove but can also be a lens shaped interflow as you can see below in bright yellow:
I've tried to use upper deposit contact and lower deposit contact of yellow against both green and purple units, resulting a patchy volume, not true to the drilling data.
Then I used intrusion model and assign it with a strong trend along the groove, but it gives me floating sausages in the purple unit……
I've also tried creating surfaces from offsetting the green/purple contact, composite the yellow unit before modelling, none of them works so far.
Has anyone had any suggestion or idea to share on this?
Appreciate much!

Edit:
The interflow (and the host） also went through D1 deformation and been compressed into a tight anticline.
Can I define a up/down contact base on a curved mesh instead of a plane? Does creating deposit surface from offset surface works for multiple episodes of interflow?
