Abstract
The Upper Cretaceous Timok Magmatic Complex (TMC) developed on a continental crust composed of different types of Proterozoic to Lower Cretaceous rocks. The TMC consists of the magmatic suites: Timok andesite (AT) - Turonian-Santonian, Metovnica epiclastite (EM) - Coniacian-Campanian, Osnic basaltic andesite (AO) and Jezevica andesite (AJ) - Santonian-Campanian, Valja Strz plutonite (PVS) - Campanian and Boljevac latite (LB). The sedimentary processes and volcanic activity of the TMC lasted nearly continuously throughout nearly the whole Late Cretaceous. The sedimentation lasted from the Albian to the Maastrichtian and the magmatism lasted for 10 million years, from the Upper Turonian to the Upper Campanian. The volcanic front migrated from East to West. The volcanic processes were characterized by the domination of extrusive volcanic facies, a great amount of volcanic material, a change in the depositional environment during the volcanic cycle, sharp facial transitions and a huge deposition of syn- and post-eruptive resedimented volcaniclastics.
