The research area is located in south-eastern Slovenia and belongs to the eastern extensions of Slovenian Basin adjacent Adriatic Carbonate Platform. studied section 25 m thick consists grey, brownish reddish pelagic limestones calciturbidites, two bentonite layers 110 10 cm thick. Both volcanoclastic horizons consist greenish, fine-grained muddy material. To date, no other bentonites similar a...

habdodontid dinosaurs were a group of medium-sized iguanodontian ornithopods from the Late Cretaceous Europe. The uppermost continental deposits Haţeg Basin western Romania yielded very rich assemblage vertebrates including abundant rhabdodontid remains, which have been exclusively referred to genus Zalmoxes thus far. Here we describe new dinosaur, Transylvanosaurus platycephalus gen. et sp. no...

The Cerro Quema Au-Cu deposit is hosted by a dacite dome complex of the Río Formation, Late Campanian-Maastrichtian volcano-sedimentary sequence Panamanian magmatic arc. Its formational age constrained at ~49 Ma field evidences, crosscutting relationships and 40Ar/39Ar geochronology (Corral et al., 2016, Corral, 2021). recent molybdenite Re-Os dates Perelló al. (2020) claim that ore spatially t...

Dakotaraptor steini is a recently described dromaeosaurid dinosaur from the Upper Cretaceous (Maastrichtian) Hell Creek Formation of South Dakota. Included within the D. steini hypodigm are three elements originally identified as furculae, one of which was made part of the holotype specimen. We show that the elements described as D. steini 'furculae' are not theropod dinosaur furculae, but are ...

The paper describes new material of Allodaposuchus from Spain. This taxon is particularly important to resolve the phylogenetic relationships of Crocodylia. Many characters are provided to justify the erection of the new species, but as the material is poor (as for many species of the genus), the comparisons are difficult. As often when the material is fragmentary, the authors try to find diagn...

Abstract The mid-Cretaceous thermal maximum (KTM) during Cenomanian to Santonian times from ca. 100 83 Ma is considered among Earth's warmest sustained intervals of the Phanerozoic. time interval also characterized by major paleoceanographic changes in form an oceanic anoxic event and flooding epicontinental seaways, such as Western Interior Seaway North America. We report carbonate clumped iso...

this study shows that ichonology can be used to refine sequence stratigraphy as well as to interpret the depositional environment of the kalat formation (upper maastrichtian) in the central kopeh- dagh basin (ne iran), dareh-gaz section. field studies and petrography of these deposits led to recognize four lithofacies and nine subfacies that formed in the tidal flat (lithofacies a), lagoon (lit...
