Stratigraphy
Stratigraphic resolution: | bed | ||||
Stratigraphy comments: Kimmeridgian Stage, Upper Substage, Aulacostephanus autissiodorensis Zone, Virgataxioceras dividuum Subzone (upper 1.5 m); thickness: 2.5 m. Zakharov et al. use the faunal lists from Mesezhnikov (1984) and the two sections correspond up to bed 7; after that Zakharov et al. skip or combine Mesezhnikov's beds so Zakharov et al.'s scale is offset by one. |
Lithology and environment
Primary lithology: | gray,blue lithified claystone |
Lithology description: Gray bluish plastic clays. The bed contains flattened round concretions of gray clay limestone to 0.6 m across. | |
Environment: | open shallow subtidal |
Geology comments: The explored Kimmeridgian section denuded along the Lopsiya River formed under the embayment conditions of an epicontinental West Siberian sea, covering the territory of more than 2 mln km^2. This Lyapinsky Bay was rather shallow and opened toward the NNE. The narrow band of the Uralian Peninsula seperated it from the Timon-Pechora Sea in the west, and the small Berezovsky Archipelago seperated it from the West Siberian Sea in the east. |
