A NEW OCCURRENCE OF UPPERMOST APTIAN-ALBIAN DEPSITS IN THE SOUTHERN PART OF THE REŞIŢA-MOLDOVA NOUĂ ZONE (SOUTHERN CARPATHIANS)

A new occurrence of uppermost Aptian-Albian sedimentary deposits has been identified in the southern part of the Reşiţa-Moldova Nouă zone along the road connecting the Moldova Nouă and Padina Matei localities. For the first time, these deposits are cartographically represented on the geological map 1:50.000 scale. This report also includes a brief lithological and paleontological description. The uppermost Aptian-Albian deposits from this area belong to the Radimna Formation and represent a shallower facies compared to the equivalent deposits from the central compartment of the Reşita-Moldova Nouă zone.
