Abstract

Tills and pre-Quarternary sediments have been analysed. The results of the sedimentological analysis show that the granulometrical composition of the tills is very uniform. With a few exceptions they can be characterized as clayey tills. The chemistry of the tills also shows homogeneity in composition , except in two localities where more than one till is present. Comparison with analyses of pre-Quarternary clays and calcareous sediments shows that the analysed tills have probably inherited most of the element content from local pre-Quarternary sediments.
