“…Early Alpine shortening involved the Inner Carpathian zone during the Late Cretaceous [ Mahel ', ; Plašienka , ]. Thrusting caused the uplift of the Variscan crystalline basement and the imbrication and subsequent partial erosion of its Mesozoic cover [e.g., Anczkiewicz et al ., , and references therein; Janočko et al ., ; Roca et al ., ]. The Late Cretaceous movement of the Inner Carpathian range toward the north and NE produced a flexure of the European Platform and the progressive migration of thrusting toward the north, thereby involving the successions deposited in the Outer Carpathian sedimentary basin.…”

“…A thin layer of limestone and gray marls closes the Upper Jurassic section, which is overlain by Lower Cretaceous marls and cherty limestones. The clastic supply increased during the Late Cretaceous, the related formations being characterized by sandstones and claystones [ Janočko et al ., ]. The above described (so‐called “High‐Tatra”) Mesozoic autochthonous sedimentary cover of the Tatra basement is tectonically overlain by the Sub‐Tatra nappes (Križna and Choč nappes) [ Kotański , ].…”

Building and exhumation of the Western Carpathians: New constraints from sequentially restored, balanced cross sections integrated with low‐temperature thermochronometry

Western Carpathian orogeny has been the subject of intense scientific debate due to the occurrence of enigmatic features, leading several authors to provide contrasting geological models. In this paper, a new interpretation for the tectonic evolution of the Western Carpathians is provided based on the following: (i) an analysis of the stratigraphy of the Mesozoic‐Tertiary successions across the thrust belt domains, (ii) a reappraisal of the stratigraphy and sedimentology of the “tectonic mélange” (i.e., the so‐called Pieniny Klippen Belt) marking the suture between the Inner and Outer Carpathians, and (iii) the construction of a series of balanced and restored cross sections, validated by 2‐D forward modeling. Our analysis provides a robust correlation of the stratigraphy from the Outer to the Inner Carpathians, independently of the occurrence of oceanic lithosphere in the area, and allows for the reinterpretation of the tectonic relationships among the Inner Carpathians, the Outer Carpathians, and the Pieniny Klippen Belt and the exhumation mechanisms affecting this orogenic belt. In order to constrain the evolution during the last 20 Ma, our model also integrates previously published and new apatite fission track and apatite (U‐Th‐Sm)/He data. These latter indicate a middle‐late Miocene exhumation of the Pieniny Klippen Belt. In this study, the recent regional uplift of the Pieniny Klippen Belt is described for the first time using a 2‐D kinematic model for the tectonic evolution of the Western Carpathians.

“…The crust-mantle boundary (27 km) and lithosphere-asthenosphere boundary (80-90 km) are shallow compared to the conditions below the Bohemian massif. Also, surface heat flow (60-80 mW.m -2 ) within the rift zone is higher than within the massif (Špičák et al, 2005;Janočko et al, 2005).…”

The present paper highlights the problem related to the source of hydrocarbons in the Eger Rift in Czech Republic. The authors discuss the existence of polygenetic deep sources of hydrocarbons. The investigations are based on direct indicators of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (abbr. PAHs). Among the diverse components of PAHs has been recognized typomorphic oil association -videlicet: phenanthrene, chrysene, pyrene and benzo(a)pyrene. On the basis of new geochemical, geological and mathematical data the oil and gas potential of Eger Rift is also discussed.
