Sažetak
Structural features of Upper Triassic and Upper Cretaceous carbonate rocks of Donje Orešje quarry were formed by tectonic deformation in temporally separated deformational events. The main structure is the complex Orešje structure with N-S strike and E vergence. It is composed of several overturned anticlines in which either similar or different structural forms were observed. The structure was formed by the Laramian movements during the Alpine orogenesis when the main stress was oriented E-W. During the youngest Tertiary and Quaternary movements, the Orešje structure was under the influence of N-S oriented stress what resulted in folding and rotation of the main structural form
