New data on the Vrancea Nappe (Moldavidian Basin, Outer Carpathian Domain, Romania): paleogeographic and geodynamic reconstructions

Abstract: A study has been performed on the Cretaceous to Early Miocene succession of the Vrancea Nappe (Outer Carpathians, Romania), based on field reconstruction of the stratigraphic record, mineralogical-petrographic and geochemical analyses. Extra-basinal clastic supply and intrabasinal autochthonous deposits have been differentiated, appearing laterally inter-fingered and/or interbedded. The main clastic petrofacies consist of calcarenites, sub-litharenites, quartzarenites, sub-arkoses, and polygenic conglomerates\… Show more

“…These sections synthetically show the main crustal elements (oceans, continents and sedimentary covers); subduction planes; main tectonic movements; and orogenic phases. Relationships between microplates and basins, tectonic transport, and opening and closing of basins are also shown (data from [9,21,31,37,69,77,78]). In the reconstruction the Tethyan oceanic branch recently recognized in the External Domain of the Rif Chain ( [35,[79][80][81]) was interpreted as an oceanic branch sector located between the External zones of the Mesorif and Intrarif Domains connected to the Maghrebian Flysch Domain [82].…”

“…This olistostrome bed is over lain by the Putna-Piatra Uscatã For ma tion (180 m thick; Lower Paleocene-up per most Ypresian; Grasu et al, 1988;Guerrera et al, 2012), con sist ing of lam i nated black shales with lime stone in ter ca la tions (up to 4-5 m thick), arenites and calcarenites. The geo log i cal sec tion along the Runcu River ends with the Bisericani For ma tion (Priabonian-Lower Rupelian; Amadori et al, 2012).…”
