Course objectives:
Acquiring knowledge about the characteristics and types of igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks and about approaches to interpreting the process of their formation. Gaining knowledge about the structure and environments of the formation of the chronostratigraphic units of the Dinarides from the Upper Palaeozoic, Mesozoic and Cainozoic. Students learn how to observe, study and record features in rocks, and how to recognize individual chronostratigraphic units of the Dinarides. The observed phenomena are understood as part of the wider geological structure and evolution of the wider area. Fieldwork is an integral part of the courses Historical Geology I, Igneous Petrology, Metamorphic Petrology, Sedimentary Petrology and Historical Geology II. The goal includes teaching about the basic field tools of geologists.
Course content (syllabus):
1) Acquaintance with litho- and biofacies of the Carboniferous and Permian Karst Dinarides;
2) Acquaintance with the litho- and biofacies of the Lower, Middle and Upper Triassic of the Karst Dinarides;
3) Acquaintance with the litho- and biofacies of the Lower and Upper Jurassic of the Karst Dinarides;
4) Acquaintance with the litho- and biofacies of the Lower and Upper Cretaceous of the Karst Dinarides;
5) Acquaintance with the Eocene litho- and biofacies of the Karst Dinarides;
6) Acquaintance with the Oligocene lithofacies of the Karst Dinarides;
7) Getting to know the basic geological structure and typical localities of the Slavonian Mountains (Mts. Psunj, Papuk, Krndija, Dilj, Požeška Gora)
8) Getting to know the basic geological structure and typical localities of Hrvatsko Zagorje;
9) Acquaintance with the basic geological structure and typical localities of Moslavačka Gora Mt.
