New data on the Early Cretaceous between Gura Sadovei and Pojorâta (Rarău Syncline, Eastern Carpathians, Romania)
Journal Title: Analele stiintifice ale Universitatii "Alexandru Ioan Cuza" din Iasi - seria Geologie - Year 2012, Vol 58, Issue 2
Abstract
The Early Cretaceous (Bucovinian Nappe) deposits have been mapped only on the external flank of the Rarău Syncline, where they form a coarse clastic succession (breccias, conglomerates and sandstones) with very poor fauna. New paleontological data are added through the present paper, the most important regarding the Tethyan ammonite Olcostephanus (Olcostephanus) guebhardti (KILIAN, 1902). This is the second species quoted in the “Muncelu Sandstone and Conglomerate” which can be used to confirm the age of the studied beds. Several observations concerning the breccias and their relation to the subjacent and suprajacent layers are also made.

The Raman study of the white pigment used in Cucuteni pottery
Shards from Cucuteni archaeological sites of Moldavia (eastern part of Romania) were analyzed through Raman spectroscopy in order to identify the white pigment used in the decoration of Cucuteni pottery (cca. 4500–3500 B...
Lithological and Palynostratigraphical correlations between Silurian Deposits from the Dnestr Basin (Podolia) and the North of the Moldavian Platform (Romania)
The Silurian deposits from the Podolia Region outcrop very clearly along the valley of the Dnestr river and its left-side tributaries. Some of the outcrop deposits are represented by the Malynivtsy Formation (Middle-Uppe...
The influence of the thrust over the evolution of the thermal regime of the Vrancea Nappe source rocks (Eastern Carpathians). A 1D simulation of the Șipoteni oil structure (Romania)
The aim of the present paper is to highlight the variations in thermal regime caused by the thrusting of the Tarcău Nappe over the Vrancea Nappe during the New Styrian tectono-genesis. The onedimensional analysis was car...
Raman and infrared spectroscopy of kaersutite and certain common amphiboles
Raman and infrared spectral studies were performed on six natural minerals from the doublechain silicate group. We analyzed samples of grunerite, actinolite, tremolite, pargasite (+kaersutite) and riebeckite in order to...
