Geography
Country:Poland
Coordinates: 50.7° North, 18.0° East (view map)
Paleocoordinates:51.0° North, 16.7° East
Basis of coordinate:based on nearby landmark
Geographic resolution:outcrop
Time
Period: Neogene Epoch: Miocene
Stage: Serravallian 10 m.y. bin: Cenozoic 5
Key time interval: MN 6
Age range of interval: 13.82 - 12.8 m.y. ago
Stratigraphy
Stratigraphic resolution:group of beds
Stratigraphy comments: Based on the clausiliid fauna, Nordsieck (1982) revised this classification and tentatively assigned the deposits to the Neogene mammal biozones MN 6-7 (see also Kadolsky et al. 2016, Neubauer et al. 2017). The mammal fauna was later attributed to zone MN 7+8 by De Bruijn et al. (1992), which was followed by studies on terrestrial molluscs (Stworzewicz 1999a, b) and reptiles (Ivanov 2001) (see also Daxner-Höck 2010). Other investigations on mammal remains from nearby localities in Opole yielded slightly different age models (MN 6 and MN7, respectively; Kowalski & Rzebik-Kowalska 2002).
