On the basis of the study on profile of the quarry near Szederkeny village between the Mecsek and the Villany Mountains, it can be stated that it is mostly built up by slope facies formations. Presumably, there was a near subaerial, shallow marine facies that supplied the bioclast material (mostly crinoid calcarenite) getting the slope. Pelitic sediments with siliceous sponge and pelagic planktons were formed during the periods of rest between the given sediment transports. By the characters of the sedimentation this sequence can be divided into three parts, and, within these, two zones formed by intensive gravitational transport can be interpreted. These zones are characterised by crinoid allodapic limestone, lithoclastic limestone and calcareous marl. Other parts of the sequence are also dominated by slope facies. However, the open marine pelitic sediment is also important as a consequence of the more moderated intensity of the transportation. Three facies of the Upper Liassic-Lower Dogger sequence in the Mecsek Mountains (the plateau facies Pusztakisfalu Limestone, the basin facies Komlo Calcareous Marl, and the intermediate slope facies) probably coexisted for long time: interdigitation and closed connection of their formations are characteristic for this period
