The Terminal Eocene Events [antikvár]

M lUTRODUCTIOrr INTO THE GEOLOGY OP THE BUDA MTS WITH SPECIAL REGARD TO THE TERMINAL EOCENE EVENTSDr. Tamás BALDIThe Buda HillsThis area is located on the right side of the Danube, largely within the municipal area of the city of Budapest. Its highest point (János-hegy) is 529 m above the sea level and around 420 m above.the level of the Danube. The right aide of Danube (Buda) was built on the Buda Hts. North of the Buda Hts, the Szentendre-Visegrád Hts extend along the Danube to the bend of the river.Pre-Tertiary rocksThe core of the Buda Mts is formed by Alpino-type, calcareous Triaaaic. The oldest known rock is Ladinian ("diploporan dolomite"). "Hauptdolomit", cherty dolomite and limestone build up the Gamian, while "Dachsteinkalk" the Norian. stages. After WEIN, Gy. (1977), the Triassic was folded in Mid-Cretaceous. After this tectonic event folding has never been reappearing, the Tertiary is strongly block-faulted.PaleogeneNo younger. Mesozoic rock than Triassic can be found in the Buda Hills. The Triassic is overlain by the Paleogene, the immense hiatus leaves some 150 million
