Campanian-Maastrichtian nannofossil biostratigraphy of the Boreal Realm (Danish Basin chalks)

    Abstract

    Recently, two boreholes were drilled in the Danish Basin (Stevns-1 and Stevns-2), close to the well-known K/T boundary section at Stevns Klint; the aims included sedimentology, isotopes, biostratigraphy and palaeoecology of the chalks. The Danish Basin chalks comprise a system sculpted by energetic, long-lasting contour currents into ridge, drift, moat and valley systems (Lykke-Andersen & Surlyk, 2004; Surlyk & Lykke-Andersen, 2007). This presentation focuses on the Campanian to uppermost Maastrichtian biostratigraphy of the Stevns-1 well (Sheldon, in press).
