  • The Krempachy Marl Formation is a geological formation in Poland and Slovakia, dating to about 179 million years ago, and covering the middle Toarcian stage of the Jurassic Period. It is among the most important formations of the Toarcian boundary on the Carpathian realm, being the regional equivalent of the Posidonia Shale. The formation has been considered as following the model of the Marl, without macroscopic paleodepths implicated on the processes. The facies of the formation developed on the , being influenced by the widespread of the Late Liassic Tethys. The formation was a succession of nearshore to epicontinental deposits, with several of the only Toarcian terrestrial deposits know from the Bohemian Massif. It also gives one of the few limited insights into paleoceanographic changes that took place in this area during this key time interval. (en)
