VS 3, Vorderi Schneit outcrop, Perrières series, Gets Nappe, Alps (Jurassic of Switzerland)

Where: Switzerland (46.5° N, 7.1° E: paleocoordinates 35.6° N, 18.6° E)

• coordinate stated in text

• hand sample-level geographic resolution

When: Middle Bathonian (167.7 - 164.7 Ma)

• bed-level stratigraphic resolution

Environment/lithology: basinal (); lithified, blue chert

• the radiolarites appear as brecciated elements associated with

•well rounded pelitic pebbles and quartzites embedded in a shaly

•matrix. Radiolaritic fragments measured 1 cm to about 30 cm.

•Radiolaritic elements are angular fragments with a particular

•blue-black color.It is a carbonate-free radiolarian chert with a radiolarian content between 50-60% by volume on average; petrographically

•they are very homogeneous and without lamination

Size class: microfossils

Preservation: original silica

Collection methods: chemical, hydroflouric, sieve,
