Abstract
The location and most interesting geological features of the outcrop of the Menilite Beds in Kobielnik village were described in the text. However, the main subject is the problem of determining the structural position in the absence of typical indicators of the bed’s top and bottom. The proposed solution is based on the observation of clastic dykes and their structural relationship to the surrounding layers. In addition, some sedimentary structures and natural bitumen’s seepages were described.
Highlights
The annual program of field training for students of the Faculty of Geology and Geotourism includes visits to selected geological outcrops with the assistance of the Faculty lecturers’
The exposure in Kobielnik is certainly a very attractive and useful for the purpose of promoting teaching of geological science. It allows for a demonstration and a discussion of many topics from various fields of geology of which only few have been described in this paper
The authors presented the exposure to a group of a dozen or so visitors generally unfamiliar with geological science
Summary
The annual program of field training for students of the Faculty of Geology and Geotourism includes visits to selected geological outcrops with the assistance of the Faculty lecturers’. One of these exposures is the Menilite Beds in Kobielnik. The authors propose an alternative method to explicitly demonstrate the overturned position of the beds It is shown further in this paper that the particular features of clastic dykes observed in the exposure indirectly determine the situation of the beds. The characteristic feature of the beds is the high content of organic matter Because of this they are seen as one of the most significant source rocks in the Outer Carpathians (Dziadzio et al, 2006; Krobicki et al, 2012)
