Quart., 56 (2): 315-332, doi: 10.7306/gq.1024Up per Cre ta ceous quartz arenites that fill the North Sudetic Synclinorium on the north ern pe riph ery of the Variscan Bo he mian Mas sif show high compositional but low tex tural ma tu rity. They have been in ter preted for years as de rived largely from nearby gran ite plutons, i.e. as first-cy cle sed i ments. A dif fer ent prov e nance was re vealed on the ba sis of a com bined light and heavy min eral anal y sis, and par ticu larly a de tri tal tour ma line study, given that tour ma line is a sen si tive in di ca tor of gra nitic/meta mor phic/sed i men tary (multi-re cy cling) or i gin. Cenomanian, Turonian, Coniacian and Santonian sand stones con tain abun dant an gu lar tour ma line grains, to gether with zir con and rutile, and subordinately staurolite, gar net, ana tase, kyan ite, sillimanite and monazite. The suc ces sive -Cenomanian to Santoniantour ma line pop u la tions are sim i lar with re gard to shape, col our and chem i cal com po si tion. The lat ter points un am big u ously to var i ous meta mor phic rocks with a pre dom i nant group of Al-rich metapelites (Al-rich, F-poor dravite). It is con cluded that, in the Late Cre taceous, large Sudetic gran ite plutons such as the Karkonosze and Strzegom-Sobótka mas sifs were not ex posed but were bur ied un der a thick siliciclastic cover. These re sults cou pled with pub lished ap a tite fis sion-track data from the gra nitic Karkonosze Pluton and the gneissic/migmatitic Góry Sowie Mas sif re veal that Late Cre ta ceous quartz arenites of the North Sudetic Synclinorium re flect grad ual exhu ma tion of the sur round ing mas sifs, but do not re cord the fi nal ex po sure of crys tal line rocks. Since the lat est Turonian, this ex hu ma tion cor re sponded to the Late Cre ta ceous in ver sion ep i sode in Cen tral Eu rope. The tex tural im ma tu rity of Up per Cre ta ceous sand stones is mis lead ing in terms of their re cy cled or i gin, and it is in her ited from im ma ture clastic source rocks.

Ero sional his tory of the Karkonosze Gran ite Mas sif -con straints from ad ja cent sed i men tary bas ins and thermochronologyThe long-term ero sional his tory of the Karkonosze Gran ite Mas sif is re vised and re con structed us ing dif fer ent sources of in for ma tion, includ ing the sed i men tary re cord of ad ja cent bas ins, pre vi ously pub lished low-tem per a ture thermochronological data and geomorphic features. Al though the ev i dence is still in com plete, this work has iden ti fied a num ber of in ter vals, of un equal du ra tion, char ac ter ized by dif fer ent de nu da tion re gimes and rates. Sev eral ma jor phases of rapid ex hu ma tion are in ferred -in the Perm ian and the Early Tri as sic as seen in the sed i men tary re cord, and in the Late Cre ta ceous as shown by both the thermochronological and sed i men tary re cords. Neotectonic up lift of the Karkonosze Mts. in the late Ce no zoic is not re corded in the thermochronological re cord and there is no ev i dence of any ac cel er ated de nu da tion close to the mas sif. Ap a tite fis sion track data show that >~3.6 km of rock must have been eroded since the Turonian, while the re sults of zir con (U-Th)/He anal y sis sug gest that in places ero sion of >~6 km of rock must have taken place. This picture dif fers from pre vi ous es ti mates of de nu da tion which sug gested that only 2-2.5 km has been eroded from the ax ial part of the Karkonosze dome since the ex po sure of gran ite batholith in the Perm ian.

¹⁰Be exposure age for sorted polygons in the Sudetes Mountains

Patterned ground landforms represent the most common phenomenon of periglacial environment and its large sorted forms belong to the few morphological indicators of former permafrost distribution. Relic forms of patterned ground are widespread on high-elevated surfaces in the central European uplands, providing the evidence of regional periglacial conditions in the past. However, the timing of these landforms as well as their potential for paleoclimate reconstructions, have remained unexplored. In this paper, we present 10 Be exposure ages from the large sorted polygons sampled at four sites in the Sudetes Mountains, the highest part of the central European uplands. These results indicate that these landforms started to form at the end of MIS 3 and the main phase of their formation occurred between 30 and 20 ka. This research confirms the hypothesis of patterned ground formation within the Weichselian glacial (115ka-10ka ?) and suggests that earlier landforms are not preserved in the Sudetes. The recognised period of enhanced periglacial activity coincides with a prominent cold interval identified earlier in both regional and northern-hemispheric proxy records.
