Mélange, Flysch and Cliffs in the Pieniny Klippen Belt (Poland): An Overview
The Pieniny Klippen Belt (PKB) is located in the suture zone between the Central and Outer (Flysch) Carpathians. Its structure is an effect of prolonged processes of the Cretaceous–Miocene folding, thrusting and uplifting. In this zone, tectonic components of different ages and features, including strike-slip-bounded tectonic blocks, thrust units, as ...

A positive gravity anomaly was observed in the Flysch belt realm. Based on this fact and available geological knowledge we suppose that the source of gravity anomaly might be carbonate rocks lying perhaps in the footwall of Flysch sediments.

SOME CHARACTERISTICS OF EOCENE FLYSCH GENESIS, COMPOSITION AND WEATHERING IN CROATIAN COAST BELT [PDF]
The most common lithotypes of the Eocene flysch in the Croatian coast belt are breccias, conglomerates, (bio)calcirudites, (bio)calcarenites, sandstones, siltstones, shales and marls. Olistolithes also can be constitutive part of Eocene flysch.

Numerical analysis of deep-seated mass movements in the Magura Nappe; Flysch Belt of the Western Carpathians (Czech Republic) [PDF]
Deep-seated slope failures are common features in the mountains of the Raca Unit, Magura Nappe of the Flysch Belt of Western Carpathians. Since they represent very complicated system, understanding of their evolution and triggers still remains unclear ...

An Olistostrome–Mélange Belt Formed Along a Suture: Bornova Flysch Zone, Western Turkey
Abstract The Bornova Flysch Zone (BFZ) in western Turkey is a regional olistostrome–melange belt located between the Izmir–Ankara Tethyan suture in northwest and the Menderes Massif in the southeast. The BFZ consists mostly of tectonized gravity mass flows.

Stratigraphy, Sedimentology and Structure of the Numidian Flysch Thrust Belt in Northern Tunisia
Abstract The Oligo-Miocene Numidian Flysch of northern Tunisia has long been divided into three distinct lithostratigraphic units considered as vertically superimposed: the lower unit or the “Zouza member”, the middle unit or the “Kroumirie member” and the upper unit or the “Babouch member”.

Validating Structural Styles in the Flysch Basin Northern Rif (Morocco) by Means of Thermal Modeling
Vitrinite reflectance and a micro-Raman spectroscopy parameters data set have been acquired on dispersed organic matter of the Maghrebian flysch basin and the Tangiers unit across a NE-SW section in the north-western Rif belt (North Morocco).

The Onset of Flysch Sedimentation in the Kaoko Belt (NW Namibia) – Implications for the Pre-Collisional Evolution of the Kaoko–Dom Feliciano–Gariep Orogen [PDF]
Abstract Detrital zircon provenance study of a metamorphosed sedimentary succession in the eastern part of the Kaoko Belt in Namibia has revealed two distinct sources for the Neoproterozoic sedimentation along the southwestern Congo Craton margin. The lower part of the succession shows detrital zircon ages consistent with erosion of Paleoproterozoic ...
