Blina Shale is a fossil bearing geological formation located in the Kimberley region of Northwest Australia.

The shale bed extends inland from King Sound at the coast, forming claypans where it is rarely exposed, with exploratory drilling indicating it is between 650 and 1,000 metres (2,130 and 3,280 ft) thick.

[1] As with the Kockatea Shale in the same region, the bed was formed by deposition in marine environs and at river deltas and estuaries.

[2] The palaeontological significance of the area was recognised in a geological survey of a region known a Fitzroy Trough in 1953, and examination by Brunnschweiler in 1954 determined the age to be Triassic and associated with the Erskine formation.

[3] Discoveries at the site include the species Batrachosuchus henwoodi and Deltasaurus kimberleyensis,[4] the larger Erythrobatrachus noonkanbahensis, along with previously described Temnospondyli taxa.
