Charakterystyka sedymentologiczna górnej części warstw szydłóweckich
Abstract
Sedimentology of the upper part of the Szydłówek Beds.
A b s t r a c t. The Givetian to Frasnian boundary interval in the N part of the Kielce region (Holy Cross Mts.) consists of dark-coloured shales, marls and micritic limestones defined as Szydłówek Beds. The upper parts of the Szydłówek Beds are well exposed in the Kostomłoty-Mogiłki and Górno-Józefka quarries. These sections are situated in Kostomłoty transitional facies zone between the shallow-water carbonate platform and the deeper Łysogóry basin. The uppermost parts of the Szydłówek Beds comprise many fine-grained intercalations: laminated calcisiltites, calcarenites, calcirudites and coquinas beds. The shales, marls and micritic limestones are hemipelagic deposits of deep, quiet and oxygen-depleted basin, whereas grained limestones correspond with shallower water and higher energy environment. Laminated calcisiltites and finer calcarenites originated in the environment below storm wave base and are interpreted as surge-like turbidity flows deposits. Thicker calcarenites, calcirudites, and coquinas beds were deposited about storm wave base and are interpreted as tempestites.
