Permian (Zechstein) littoral structures in the Holy Cross Mts

Abstract

At the Zelejowa locality in the Holy Cross Mts a number or littoral structures related to the Upper Permian (Zechstein) transgression were noted. They are represented by cliff rubbles consisting of breccia material accumulated at the foot of cliff, and various forms of psefitic accumulation, as elongate littoral bank continuing more or less parallel to the shoreline. These structures made possible the reconstruction of morphology of the littoral zone and hydrodynamic conditions prevailing during the transgression of Zechstein sea.
