Výskyt spodnokriedových magmatických hornín medzi Podbrančom a Myjavou

Abstract

Occurrences of magmatic rocks were identifid north of the settlement Belanskovci (part of Myjava town), on the ridge of the elevation point 464 m a. s. l. east of the settlement Podzámok (part of the Podbranč village). The volcanic rock sample was petrographically studied under the polarizing microscope, BSE and EDAX analyses. Based on these, the sample coresponds to a mafic igneous rock, which is the product of solidifiation of the basic intrusion into the host limestone environment, which in this case is represented by gray, mottled, cherty limestones of Upper Jurassic to Lower Cretaceous age (Tithonian to Hauterivian).
