Primary lithology: "limestone"
Lithology description: "[Section starts with Kopanina beds tectonically above the younger Devonian Zlichov Lsts.] The Kopanina beds contain a brachiopod fauna characteristic of the E. beaumonti horizon...The middle part of the section is not exposed. It continues in the steep rock as massive light pinkish to light purple bioclastic limestones of the Pozary Formation [interp. as BA2-3]...On the top of the same outcrop there are light reddish Lsts with Scyphocrinites detritus...Farther to the north [corresponding levels have other fossils as well]...[Descriptions of similar beds continue]...In the succeeding beds of fine grained limestone there are abundant specimens...the index conodont Icriodus woschmidti first occurs...[then comes 7m of light grey bioclastic Lsts with Lochkovian fauna]..."
