flysch

The name flysch is currently used in many mountain chains belonging to the Alpine belt.

The Upper Devonian follows a break and is of flysch.

The primary composition of the range is Carpathian flysch.

During this stage, deep water and commonly marine sediments, known as flysch, are deposited.

They are generally found in flysch deposits from the Eocene period, which began with the arrival of mammals.

The range consists mainly of limestone and Carpathian flysch.

Known locally as the "flysch" they date from the mid-cretaceous period to the present, a time period of over 100 million years.

The entire range is composed of Carpathian flysch and is oriented from north to southeast.

As a result, flysch deposits are often highly deformed by thrust faulting and folding.

The mountains are composed primary of Carpathian flysch.

Underground aquifers surface from exploits in the ultra basic flysch rocks.

They are built mainly of flysch deposits and their high sediments in both Bečva rivers valleys.

Landslides are common of the flysch formations.

In the west, the marine shelf facies continued and the flysch basin carried on subsiding.

The southern flysch basins began to expand northward.

Eugeosynclines often contain flysch typical of a continental-continental convergent boundary.

Istria is abundant with water resources because of impermeable layers of flysch.

The mountain is 5.5 kilometers long and built of flysch, serpentine, and magmatic rocks.

It is composed of flysch containing quartz, limestone, marl, and other conglomerates.

At the northern margin of the Alps the remnants are called Rhennodanubic flysch.

The towering mountain slopes are characterized by bright limestone (karst) and flysch rocks.

This fairly thick flysch sequence was also deposited in the Upper Cretaceous.

From the neotectonic point of view whole area of flysch belt is affected by extension, locally up to 12 mm per year.

Geologically, they consist mainly of flysch deposits.

Geologically, it belongs to the flysch Alps.
