Upper Visean (Brigantian) miospores from the eastern part of the Lublin Coal Basin (Poland), and their stratigraphical significance

Abstract

Górnowizenskie (briganckie) miospory ze wschodniej części Lubelskiego Zagłębia Węglowego i ich znaczenie stratygraficzne Nineteen species of Upper Visean miospores derived from three boreholes in the eastern part of the Lublin Coal Basin arc described. One of these is a new species. The composition of the miospore assemblages indicates that they belong lo the T. vetustus-R. fracta (VF) Zone of the standard miospore division. Some of the deposits studied by the authors have been assigned previously, based on their lithology, to the Devonian.
