Lithology and environment
Primary lithology: lithified rudstone
Secondary lithology: lithified grainstone
Lithology description: The organisation of the lithofacies consists of interbedded grain-supported sediments. At different levels skeletal grainstone - rudstone beds are characterized by erosive surfaces, grading and grain orientation. The fossil community changes with an increase of rudists which become dominant. They represent the main source of skeletal material that formed sandy bodies.
Environment:shallow subtidal indet.
Geology comments: Upperpart of the succession (50 m thick).
