Mineralizacja gipsowa w warstwach hieroglifowych antykliny Jankowej (Zachodnie Karpaty Zewnętrzne) – wstępne wyniki badań

Abstract

Gypsum mineralization in hieroglyphic beds of the Jankowa anticline – preliminary research results (Outer Western Carpathians). Prz. Geol., 71: 169–173; doi: 10.7306/2023.9 A b s t r a c t. Sulfate mineralization occurs in almost all lithostratigraphic beds of the Carpathians and has been described for at least the last century. While carrying out cartographic studies near Bobowa, a new site of gypsum mineralization was discovered within the hieroglyphic beds of the Jankowa anticline. The gypsum crystals found there reach up to several centimetres in length and, so far, no similar ones have been described in the Carpathian flysch deposits. Gypsum from Jankowa occurs in the form of intergrowth and twinnings, rosettes and larkspurs, and vein fillings.
