Stratigraphy
| Stratigraphy comments: Middle Pliocene |
Lithology and environment
| Primary lithology: | "cross stratification",pebbly poorly lithified sandstone |
| Lithology description: on the floor, there are chalks of the Cenomaninan, they are overlain by sand beds, 5 m to 20 m thick. The lower part of them contains gravel and coarse sand, in the upper they are interbedded by middle- and fine-grained sands with crossbedding typical of river sediments. | |
| Environment: | fluvial indet. |
