Ia. Goncharova et Lb. Ilina, RELATIONS BETWEEN MIDDLE MIOCENE BASINS OF THE WESTERN AND EASTERN PARATETHYS, Stratigraphy and geological correlation, 5(6), 1997, pp. 584-592
The composition of mollusks from the hole near the town of Anan'ev (Uk
raine) has been analyzed. The green sand and clay beds, which in Molda
via and Western Ukraine (Podolia) are referred to as the Podolian Form
ation, do not always correspond to the lower Badenian. The available d
ata do not suggest any relationship between the Western and Eastern Pa
ratethys in the early Badenian-Tshokrakian time. A connection between
the two basins mainly occurred at the end of the late Badenian-Konkian
period.
