Abstract

The minimal thickness of the Kamieniec Shale Formation is estimated for 600 m. The analysis of trylobite fossils confirms the upper part or the Lower Cambrian age of the formation. The shales are considered to be first deposited in a zone of external shelf or in deep basin, under oxide shortage conditions close to the bottom and then have been a subject of continuous and discontinuous deformation during the Sandomirian and Variscan phases.
