Provenance study of the Upper Cretaceous – Paleocene turbiditic deposits of the Pupov Formation with uncertain tectonic affiliation exposed in the Varín sector of the Pieniny Klippen Belt is presented. Petrographic and heavy mineral analyses including geochemistry of detrital Cr-spinels, tourmalines and garnets were carried out. The studied deposit...

We present the latest magnetotelluric models on profiles in the northeastern part of Slovakia and the southeastern part of Poland. These models are focused on deciphering the tectonic structures at the contact of the Inner Carpathians with the European Platform in this area. For the Inner Carpathian block, we propose the term Carpathia. Profile SA-...

Anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility and anisotropy of anhysteretic remanent magnetization were studied in the Oligocene turbidites of the weakly deformed Central Carpathian Paleogene Basin. In order to decide whether the magnetic fabric can be related to deposition from a paleoflow or to incipient weak tectonic deformation we compared magnetic...

The thin skinned Hronic nappe system represents the structurally highest tectonic unit in the Late Cretaceous thrust-stack of the Central Western Carpathians. It mostly comprises a Permian volcano-sedimentary sequence and Triassic carbonate sediments which crop out in different parts of the Central Western Carpathians. We carried out a systematic p...

The Pieniny Klippen Belt contains thickening and coarsening upwards synorogenic sedimentary successions witnessing the collision of the Oravic ribbon continent with the Central Carpathian orogenic wedge after the closure of the Vahic Ocean in the Late Cretaceous to Early Palaeogene. The sedimentary record of this event is represented by flysch/wild...

This paper presents geochemical data on sedimentary rocks from the Upper Cretaceous to Lower Eocene formations of the Pieniny Klippen Belt (Western Carpathians, Slovakia). On the basis of geochemical analyses of 15 samples, the plate tectonic setting of sediment accumulation and paleodepositional environment were reconstructed, which may help to un...

Biostratigraphic investigations of carbonate strata that sandwich volcanic rocks and studies of the volcanic rocks were made along five composite lithological sections across the Upper Jurassic-Lower Cretaceous carbonate rocks of autochthonous cover of the High-Tatric Unit in the Osobita peak area of the Western Tatra Mts. A carbonate microbreccia...

An exceptional, briefly exposed section across the boundary between the Pieniny Klippen Belt (PKB) and the Central Carpathian Paleogene Basin (CCPB) in Eastern Slovakia showed that the contact is formed by a single, subvertical fault plane. Whereas the Oligocene CCPB deposits exhibit only weak deformation with S-verging fold-and-thrust structures,...
