Abstract:During the Middle Triassic, intensive volcanic activity took place along the eastern margin of Pangea, including the Greater Adria promontory, due to the Neotethyan oceanization. This resulted in the formation of various volcanic and volcaniclastic rock types. The region of NW Croatia, acting as a transition zone between the Southern Alps and the Dinarides, showcases the outcrops of these rocks. The present study investigates the facies of volcaniclastic rocks, the distribution of those facies, formation proce… Show more
