The Bostobe Formation (Template:Langx) is a geological formation in Qaraghandy & Qyzylorda, Kazakhastan whose strata date back to the Late Cretaceous (Santonian to early Campanian stages, approximately 85 Ma).

The sandstones and claystones of the formation were deposited in estuarine, fluvial-lacustrine and fluvial-deltaic environments.

Dinosaur remains are among the fossils that have been recovered from the formation.[1] The formation is about Script error: No such module "convert". thick and consists primarily of clay with interbeds of sand, representing an estuarine environment.[2]
