Sažetak
The Benkovac Stone Unit is about 100 m thick and consists of carbonate sandstones (up to 35 cm thick, but mainly thinner) interbedded with finer-grained calcareous deposits. Its Late Eocene age was established on the basis of large benthic foraminifera (nummulitids, discocyclinids) and small pelagic globigerinids. Benkovac Stone Unit consists of the offshore transition deposits of a storm-dominated, microtidal shelf variously affected by oscillatory waves and sediment-laden geostrophic currents.
