Ordovician graptolites from the basal part of the Palaeozoic transgressive sequence in the Karadere area, Zonguldak Terrane, NW Turkey [PDF]
The Karadere area to the east of Safranbolu in NW Anatolia is one of the very few localities in Turkey where the contact between the Cadomian basement and the Lower Palaeozoic transgressive succession is well exposed.

High‐Resolution Tracking of Baltica's Northward Drift in the Ordovician
Abstract We investigated the paleogeography of Baltica via a paleomagnetic study of 471‐454 Ma limestones from the Siljan (Sweden) impact structure. Stepwise thermal demagnetization isolated a well‐defined magnetization component that unblocks up to the Curie temperature of magnetite and passes fold and reversal tests, indicative of a primary ...

Graptolite biostratigraphy of the lower Silurian of the Sommerodde-1 core, Bornholm, Denmark
The Sommerodde-1 core provides a continuous record through the subsurface of southern Bornholm from the Wenlock Series (Silurian) through to the Lower Cambrian. The Silurian graptolite biostratigraphy of the core is described.

Middle Darriwilian conodont zones in the uppermost San Juan limestone and the lower member of the Las Aguaditas formation, central Precordillera of San Juan, Argentina [PDF]
The geological province of Precordillera is located in western Argentina. It extends 450 km meridionally and 110 km from east to west (Fig. 1) (Furque and Cuerda, 1979).

Exceptional outcrop exposures of the Cloridorme Formation, Quebec, Canada, offer a rare opportunity to quantify the lateral continuity of event beds and elements of a basin‐plain depositional environment. Eighty‐two per cent of the mapped event beds are present across a 530 m outcrop transect parallel to depositional dip. However, even in this overall ‘

Correlation of upper Llandovery–lower Wenlock bentonites in the När (Gotland, Sweden) and Ventspils (Latvia) drill cores: role of volcanic ash clouds and shelf sea currents in determining areal distribution of bentonite [PDF]
Study of volcanic ash beds using biostratigraphy, sanidine composition and immobile elements within bentonites has manifested several well-established and some provisional correlations between Gotland and East Baltic sections.

Late Ordovician ironstone and its relation to ocean redox instability, climate and glaciation
Abstract The Upper Ordovician (Katian) Neda Formation, a phosphatic ironstone, records a widespread but short‐lived shift to ferruginous waters across a vast epicontinental area. Lithofacies and stratigraphic reappraisal indicate that Neda ironstone deposition occurred on a storm‐dominated ramp when coastal upwelling emplaced eutrophic ferruginous ...
