About: New Red Sandstone

An Entity of Type: Abstraction100002137, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org:8891

The New Red Sandstone, chiefly in British geology, is composed of beds of red sandstone and associated rocks laid down throughout the Permian (300 million years ago) to the end of the Triassic (about 200 million years ago), that underlie the Jurassic-Triassic age Penarth Group. The name distinguishes it from the Old Red Sandstone which is largely Devonian in age, and with which it was originally confused due to their similar composition.

  • Les nouveaux grès rouges sont un faciès de sédiments continentaux de couleur rouge, défini au Royaume-Uni (Devon) qualifiant une succession de roches sédimentaires détritiques à dominante gréseuse datée du Permien et du Trias. Ce faciès présente habituellement une matrice ferrugineuse (hématite) lui donnant une couleur rouge caractéristique. Ils se sont déposés en milieu continental (fluviatile et éolien). La présence de quelques niveaux d'évaporites témoigne aussi de dépôts en milieu aride de type sebkha. Les nouveaux grès rouges se distinguent des vieux grès rouges qui datent principalement du Dévonien. (fr)
  • The New Red Sandstone, chiefly in British geology, is composed of beds of red sandstone and associated rocks laid down throughout the Permian (300 million years ago) to the end of the Triassic (about 200 million years ago), that underlie the Jurassic-Triassic age Penarth Group. The name distinguishes it from the Old Red Sandstone which is largely Devonian in age, and with which it was originally confused due to their similar composition. Its upper layers consist of mudstones, but most of the formation consists of reddish to yellowish sandstones, interbedded with rare evaporite minerals such as halite and gypsum. These indicate deposition within a hot and arid palaeo-environment, such as a desert or sabkha. (en)
  • 新赤色砂岩（しんせきしょくさがん、新赤砂岩、英: New Red Sandstone）は、グレートブリテン島イングランド中央部に分布する、ペルム紀から三畳紀初期の地層である。旧赤色砂岩と区別される。上部は泥岩で、その他大部分は砂岩に岩塩や石膏といった蒸発岩を挟む。砂岩はよく円磨されたサイズ最大2mmの石英粒から成り、粒間を赤鉄鉱が埋めるため赤く見える。 (ja)
  • La nuova arenaria rossa (in inglese: New Red Sandstone) è un'unità litostratigrafica del permiano, denominata nuova per distinguerla dalla simile antica arenaria rossa (Old Red Sandstone) risalente al siluriano-devoniano-carbonifero. Questa formazione, presente soprattutto in Inghilterra, può contenere resti di vegetali e rettili terrestri. Sono arenarie formate principalmente dallo smantellamento della catena ercinica varisica, quindi sono sedimenti di molassa. (it)
