Lithology and environment
| Primary lithology: | "limestone" |
| Lithology description: The lowermost part of the Pinczow Limestones is composed of undistinctIy, very-thick bedded, fme organodetrital deposits, which pass upwardly into coarse-grained organodetrital limestones (see PI. 1, Figs 1-2). Here and there, the rhodoliths are particularly common and theybuild the rhodolith pavement. The sequence is interrupted once (in the northern part) or twice (insouthern) by marly limestones with abundant bryozoans Ceiieporaria, and thus called the Lower and the Upper Celleporan Bed | |
| Environment: | shallow subtidal indet. |
