Lower Cretaceous limestones from the northern part of Padurea Craiului (Osoiu Hill and Subpiatra sections): biostratigraphy and preliminary data on microbial structures
Abstract:ABSTRACT. Two sections have been measured within the Lower Cretaceous deposits from the northern part of Pădurea Craiului: Osoiu Hill section and Subpiatră section. Thin sections representing more than 180 samples allowed us to present some results on the biostratigraphy, facies succession and the role of microbial structures in the genesis of these limestones. The Osoiu Hill section is dominated by fenestral limestones formed in the intertidal or in the shallow subtidal zone. Their formation is dominantly rel… Show more
