On the graptolite schist's formation, Silurian-Lower Devonian, in the Carpatho-Balkanides of eastern Serbia [PDF]
The fabric of the Silurian and a part of the Lower Devonian in the Carpatho-Balkanides of eastern Serbia, i.e. in two large geotectonic units, the Kučaj Unit (Getic) and the Luznica Unit (West Kraishte), is reviewed in this paper.

Climate change and the selective signature of the Late Ordovician mass extinction [PDF]
Selectivity patterns provide insights into the causes of ancient extinction events. The Late Ordovician mass extinction was related to Gondwanan glaciation; however, it is still unclear whether elevated extinction rates were attributable to record ...

Abstract. The data obtained from an independent study of acritarchs, chitinozoans and miospores enables the determination of maximum age ranges of samples taken from three wells. These are shown in Fig. 8.ACRITARCHSAt present, samples have been examined from six wells – A1-46, Core 2; E1-81, Cores 3, 4; F1-46, Core 3; D-31, Core 1; A1-81, Core 3 and C1-
