Geologie petřkovických vrstev hornoslezské pánve (ostravské souvrství,namur).

Abstract

PhD. thesis deals with research of the Petřkovice Member of the Upper Silesian Coal Basin. It includes published articles, articles in press and some papers in the preparation. Part of the text consists of recently established and till now unpublished information about sedimentation and development during the time of the Petřkovice Member formation. Principal contribution of the thesis is based on results that proceed from new created models of the spatial development of the geological parameters of the Petřkovice Member (thickness, sandiness and coal-bearing capacity) and also a new created lithologiccorrelation cross-section. This geological documentation processes newly verified data and includes both Czech and Polish parts of the basin. This text discusses classification of the sedimentary basin typology in the Upper Silesian Coal Basin and also character of the sedimentary environment of the Petřkovice Member. PhD. thesis describes litho-stratigraphic boundary of the Petřkovice Member, important correlation horizons (Main Ostrava Whetstone, Whetstone of the Leonard seam) and some questions of its litho-stratigraphy. Practical application of the thesis consists in the utilization of used metodology of geological parameters models creation. Models of the coal-bearing capacity development can be also used. Development of the thickness and sandiness and lithologic-correlation schemes interprets general regularity of the coal-bearing sedimentation development in the basin and are important as auxiliary documentation for deposit research strategy.
