Geological environments forming the Eocene black-shale formation of the Silesian Nappe (Ukrainian Carpathians)
Objective. To elaborate the geological structure and stratigraphy of the Eocene black shale formation of the Silesian Nappe, to recreate the depths and processes of its accumulation, and to reconstruct paleogeography and geodynamics of the Eocene sedimentatary Silesian Sub-basin. Methodology includes geological mapping, studing the lithostratigraphy and sedimentological features of the deposits (elements of Bouma sequence et al.) in a natural sedimentary succession, as well as paleobathimetric analyses of the foraminiferal assemblages.
