Waypoint 8: Ochre Dolomites (Route 3 Map)

From this point we can see a small farm with roe deer, but the presence of a unit of ochre dolomites is particularly noteworthy from a geological point of view. The relevance of this unit is that it marks the beginning of the stratigraphic sequence that contains the main geological elements of interest in the municipality.

This unit marks a period of low sea level with almost aerial exposure of the sediment, which generates oxidation and gives these ochre colours.

Here we arrive at the reef itself, what corresponds to the facies C and D (already described previously), where we see the sucession of fossils that are substituted eventually, depending on the dynamic conditions, in particular Radiolites Sauvagesi, Hippurites Incisus that are really close which are substituted with clustering of Biradiolites angulosus, Radiolites Sauvagesi and Hippurites incisus. As we have mentioned, this sucession is the reef itself in different zones of the barrier and with small variations generated of storms or the different positions that conform the barrier of the reef. The most interesting parts of this point are not only the fossils, that present a perfect state of conservation, but also the detailed analysis of the suecssion of fossils and the strata t...
