they would be the same age and if they are the same type of rock you can say that they were once together....it is likely that they formed in the same place but were seprated by some geologic mechanism like plate tectonics.....there are rocks in south america that are also found in africa and this proves that the continents were once together so that would be a valid assumption

It is assumed that they are the same age. This is how strata is dated through Index fossils. However, some strata is made of a different kind of rock. If it has the same Index fossils it is assumed to be the same strata deposited at the same time. But given a different Formation name like Hell Creek and Lance Creek are both Late Cretaceous. However, these are only assumptions based on the assumption that evolution is a fact. Creating circular reasoning. The fact that almost identical fossils and rocks are found on all continents around the world, all deposited by sediment which means water deposited. It indicates water - which seeks its level - covered every land mass on earth. This fact like many others, is ignored by evolutionists.

The rocks must be sedimentary, almost certainly are water-lain, of the same age, and were deposited in a similar environment.

their ages could be the same, or at least nearly the same. they may or may not be the same in terms of the mineral makeupo of the rock itself. Two lakes or seas from the same latitudes with similar animal and plant life.

Separated horizontally or vertically?
