\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAt the beginning of Paleozoic, \u0430 peridotite-gabbro-leucogranites intruded a cratonized basement of metamorphics (600-550 \u041c\u0430). Intensive igneous activity was in contrast with limited sedimentation. I-type granites reflected to the existence of a subduction zone at the end of Carboniferous.\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Permian age characterizes thick deposits of red landformed sandstones and conglomerates, which locally disrupt spilite, porphyrite and pyroclastic rocks. Land remained until the Liassic transgression, when noteworthy marine sedimentation of shallow-water clastites and limestone with hardground and Ammonitico rosso took part. The end of Jurassic\/beginning of Cretaceous marked the deposition of deep-water limestones with radiolarian-rich cherts, including ammonite-rich marlstone and marly limestone.<\/p>

The end of Albian stage is also the end of sedimentation in Danubicum. Laramian plutons emplaced at the Cretaceous\/Paleogene boundary. The epicontinental seas (Western and Eastern Paratethys), which existed in Neogene, included several basins. The Djerdap (i.e. Intra-Carpathian) strait was one of the straits responsible for their communication. Miocene sediments are clastites, marlstone and coals, while the youngest Quaternary sediments are alluvial, occasionally gold-bearing sediments, amongst others.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
