This work reports the first data on the Variscan metamorphic evolution of the Marmarosh/Maramuresh massif in the Outer Eastern Carpathians. Geothermobarometry determinations coupled with U-Th-Pb dating of monazite, apatite, titanite and rutile were used to construct P-T-t paths and refine the geodynamic evolution of the pre-Alpine crystalline basem...
Deep-water agglutinated foraminifera are investigated from Paleocene to Eocene sediments recovered from IODP Hole U1511B in the northeastern Tasman Sea. The assemblage consists entirely of “cosmopolitan” species originally described from the Carpathians, Caucasus, Trinidad, the western Tethys, and other DSDP/ODP sites, implying that there is little...
The Beloveza Formation (Racza Zone, Magura Nappe) in Osielec contains melange deposits, which have an olistostrome origin. Their deposition took place during the sedimentation of thickbedded and conglomeratic sandstones of the Piasierbiec Member.
Micropaleontological studies identified the time of its deposition, determined its origin, and age of t...
During the evolution of the Outer Carpathian basins (western part of the Tethys), several periods of gravity mass deposition of olistostromes and olistoliths occurred. They were linked to the stages of basinal development and the final stage was associated with northward movement of the accretionary prism and successive shortening of the basins. It...
The Alpine Tethys originated during the Pangean breakup in the Early Jurassic. This oceanic system constituted the extension of the Atlantic system, so the Atlantic Tethys name was also being used. The rocks deposited in the NorthEastern Part of the Alpine Tethys realm are recently exposed mainly in the Pieniny Klippen Belt and Outer Carpathians in...
The Calcareous Alps and Central Carpathians formed the marginal platform of Western and Central Europe during the Triassic time. The Mesozoic rifting events caused the origin of oceanic type basins along the northern margin of the Paleotethys. The Pangean breakup resulted in the formation of the Alpine Tethys during Sinemurian/Pliensbachian time. T...
The Pieniny Kilippen Belt (PKB) marks the suture zone between the Central and Outer (Flysch) Carpathians. East of Białka it is represented by three mountain ranges – the Spisz Pieniny, Central Pieniny and Lesser Pieniny. West of Białka such ranges are not distinguished, in this region the PKB is partly covered by Neogene and Quaternary formations o...
Both tectonic and sedimentary processes (undersea mass movements) contributed to the formation of mélanges in the Pieniny Klippen Belt (PKB). The name Klippen Belt comes from the presence of "Klippen" in this structure, i.e. elements contrasting with the surroundings. The harder and more resistant to erosion Klippen are located among less resistant...
