Lithology and environment
| Primary lithology: | gray "shale" | ||
| Lithology description: Specimen from Gray Shale between sandstone layers | |||
| Environment: | terrestrial indet. | Tectonic setting: | pull-apart basin |
| Geology comments: The Bohemian Cretaceous Basin and its source terrains formed during the mid-Cretaceous, by reactivation of a system of anastomosed strike-slip faults. Individual sub-basins and source terrains formed within this anastomosed fracture system. The structurally deepest depocentres of individual sub-basins were situated along the most active marginal fault zones. Compared to the classic strike-slip basin systems, this intracontinental setting was characterized by small subsidence rates. | |||
