These are: stratified sands with gravels, boulder clays, weathered clays, erratic boulders, fluvioglacial and fluvial sands, loesses and others. In the paper the characteristics of these deposits are given, their relation to the sub-Miocene erosional surface is discussed, as well as a comparison with the adjacent areas is presented.
