Description | Ancient hydrocarbon seepage occurred in the Hrabůvka quarry at the boundary between the basement of the Bohemian Massif (represented by folded Lower Carboniferous siliciclastics of the Culm facies) and Tertiary sedimentary cover of the Carpathian Foredeep (formed by Lower Badenian siliciclastics and calcareous clays). Mineralogical, stable isotope, elemental geochemical, and fluid inclusion data are presented in order to asses the origin of rocks, veins, and their fluids. |
