Abstract:

Outcrops of the Carboniferous at Hladový vrch in Ostrava-Hošťálkovice (Silesia, Czech Republic)

Based on the study and review of available data related to abandoned quarries at the Hladový vrch near Ostrava-Hošťálkovice and new field works, we concluded that the local sediments belong to lower part of the Petřkovice Member, namely a sequence of strata between the top of the group of Štúr faunistic horizont and coal seam Čeněk (011). At present it is the westernmost known outcrop of the Petřkovice Member of Ostrava Formation in the Czech part of the Upper Silesian Basin and the stratigraphically lowest-lying outcrop of this unit. We recommend not to use the term “Hošťálkovice Member” as defined Hokr in 1955, which is synonymous with the previously used term “Zone Without Coal Seams” (orig. Flözleere Schichten in German).
