Abstract

Za vrijeme mlađe krede u Vanjskim Dinaridima te cijelom prostoru Jadranske karbonatne
platforme dolazi do izrazite tektonske kompresije, boranja i rasjedanja i njezinog izdizanja
djelovanjem Alpske orogeneze, a što u kombinaciji s globalnim sniženjem morske razine
rezultira emerzijom na većini prostora. Na području istraživanja i okolnom prostoru,
laramijski pokreti izazvali su boranje i izdizanje gornjokrednih vapnenaca, koji su u
kopnenoj fazi do donjeg eocena pretrpjeli intenzivno okršavanje. U udubljenjima se
nakupljao boksitični materijal. Ova je emerzija rezultirala diskordantnim odnosom
gornjokrednih i paleogenskih naslaga. Gornjokredne sedimentne stijene zahvatila je
transgresija u eocenu, a posljedica je nastanak foraminiferskih vapnenaca.

Abstract (english)

Abstract: During the Late Cretaceous the External Dinarides and the entire area of the Adriatic
carbonate platform experienced a strong compression, folding, faulting and its uplifting as
a consequence of the Alpine orogeny, which combined with the global sea level fallcaused
emersion of its broad area. In the study and the surrounding area, Laramian movements
generated folding and uplift of the Upper Cretaceous limestones, which during the
terrestrial phase experienced intense karstification till the Early Eocene. In formed
depressions bauxite material was deposited. The emersion resulted in unconformity
between the Upper Cretaceous and Paleogene deposits. The area was affected by a
transgression in the Eocene that produced foraminifera limestones which overlie the Upper
Cretaceous sedimentary rocks.
