Abstract
Istraživan je lokalitet na poluotoku Kalifront, na SZ dijelu! otoka Raba. Iz prikupljenih uzoraka gornjokrednih i eocenskih vapnenaca izrađeni su mikroskopski izbrusci radi mikropaleontološke analize i odredbe mikrofacijesa. Određena su 4 mikrofacijesa. Starost pojedinih blokova određena je kao srednji apt-gornji apt, donji alb-gornji alb, gornji alb-srednji santon, srednji cenoman-srednji turon, donji turon-srednji santon, gornji turon-gornji senon, srednji turon- kampan, a eocenski kao lutet. Prikupljeni su pijesci s otoka Raba i otoka Krka te su radi usporedbe geneze detritusa granulometrijski analizirani. Blokovi su interpretirani kao glacigeni sediment.The area of study was the locality on Kalifront peninsula in the NW part of the island of Rab (Croatia). Thin sections were made from the gathered samples for microplaeontological and microfacies analysis. Four different microfacies types were determined. Age of individual blocks is defined as the middle-upper Apt, lower-upper Alb, upper Alb-middle Santonian, middle Cenomanian-middle Turonian, lower Turonian-middle Santonian, upper Turonian-upper Senonian, middle Turonian-Campanian and Eocene as lutet. Sands of island of Rab and island of Krk were collected and to compared. The blocks are interpreted as glacial sediment
