Sažetak
The Zelovo area on the foothills of Svilaja Mt. is a well-known area of the thick succession of the Triassic strata. It is composed of Lower Triassic mixed carbonate and siliciclastic beds that were deposited within the epeiric platform depositional realm situated in an equatorial area along the northern Gondwana shelf. The overlying Anisian and Ladinian carbonate beds with pelagic and sporadic more intense pyroclastic characteristics belong to another paleogeographic entity known as the Adria plate, i.e. huge depositional area of the isolated carbonate Southern Tethyan Mega platform. This Lower and Middle Triassic epeiric platform-isolated platform sequence was emerged during Late Ladinian and then submerged again due to Norian transgression, marking renewed carbonate deposition within the isolated carbonate platform realm up to the end of Cretaceous.
