Abstract

THE TERRENEUVIAN AND LATE EDIACARAN ORGANIC MICROFOSSILS FROM KRAKOW AREA Abstract. This paper presents the characteristics of the oldest groups of organic microfossils that are documented in two new wells (Trojanowice 2 and Cianowice 2) located on the opposite sides of the fault zone Krakow–Lubliniec separating Upper Silesian and Malopolska blocks). The detail palynological research allowed to determine the age of clastic sediments drilled under Jurassic and Devonian. Two characteristic microfossils assemblages are documented: Late Ediacaran dating the age of the Malopolska Block basement and Terreneuvian known from the oldest Cambrian sediments of the Upper Silesian Block. The documented associations of organic microfossils include the oldest representatives of the bacteria, algae, fungi and animals.
