“…Around the volcanic cones volcaniclastic aprons have developed, extending over the Neogene sediments of the Transylvanian Basin Seghedi, 1995a, 1995b). The volcaniclastics cover the Paleogene and Neogene sedimentary deposits of the Transylvanian Basin, made up of alternations of marls, silty clays and sandstones, volcanic tuff and salt deposits with a thickness up to 3 km in the eastern side of the Transylvanian Basin (Paucă, 1967;Krézsek and Filipescu 2005;Krézsek and Bally, 2006).…”

“…Regional tectonic changes during the Badenian (Middle Miocene) determined the evolution of the Transylvanian Basin in back-arc settings, characterized by a low-rate of subsidence (Krézsek and Bally, 2006). The early Badenian in the Transylvanian Basin was marked by a widespread transgression of warm waters providing optimum conditions for diverse and abundant foraminifera assemblages (Popescu and Crihan, 2008).…”

Abstract. The planktonic foraminifera assemblages recovered from two cores drilled in Cluj-Napoca (NW Transylvanian Basin) demonstrate connections of the basin to the open seas before the middle Badenian evaporite deposition. Assemblages suggest clear changes in the environments, with an initial transgressive trend, followed by a decrease in the rate of sea-level rise, and finally a sea-level fall. The occurrence of planktonic foraminifera (mainly Globorotalia) offers a good potential for correlation of the pre-evaporitic interval with the uppermost Langhian and can be used for tracing the early-middle Badenian boundary.
