Discussion: Oszczypko, N., Oszczypko-Clowes, M. and Olszewska, B. 2020. Geological setting and lithological inventory of the Czarna Woda conglomerates (Magura Nappe, Polish Outer Carpathians). Acta Geologica Polonica, 70, 397–418.

Abstract

Oszczypko et al. (2020), in reference to the earlier work by Oszczypko and Oszczypko-Clowes (2014), attempt to revolutionize the tectogenesis of the Pieniny Klippen Belt (PKB) through their documentation of Miocene age (NN2 zone, Burdigalian) strata in rocks previously belonging partly to the Jarmuta Formation of the Grajcarek Unit, partly to the Magura Formation of the Magura Nappe and partly to the autochthonous Paleogene forming a so called “younger mantle” (see Birkenmajer 1970, 1986).
