Abstract

The paper presents data on the distribution of rains during the formation of Carboniferous coal-bearing rocks in the Lvov–Volyn Basin located at the southwestern margin of the East European Platform. They left numerous raindrop imprints that usually occur in the productive Buzhan coal-bearing formation in marginal (repeatedly drained) sectors of maritime lakes, freshened lagoons, bays, and, less commonly, in river floodplains. The raindrop imprints have been recorded for the first time in Carboniferous rocks of the southwestern East European Platform. Their study is of great importance for the interpretation of paleogeographic and paleoclimatic settings.
