Brandenburg - Opis:
- The Brandenburg section of the hinterland and of the maximum extent of the Pommeranian phase of the last glaciation, formed in two lobes (Schulz, 1967): Joachimsthal-Ringenwalder and Ucker-markischer, have been covered by a study on petrography of a gravelly and a stony fraction. The methods applied followed suggestions of Bose (1989), Trembaczowski (1961, 1967), Meyer (1983), Smed (1993, 1994) and Zandstra (1999). Petrographical analyses undertaken in Uckermark, NE Germany, were focused on: 1) observation of the dynamics of petrographical features along and in the hinterland of the Odra lobus on the German side, 2) indication of the western limit of the Odra lobus upon petrography of glacial sediments, 3) indication of Scandinavian parent areas of sediments of the Pommeranian phase and estimating the routes of ice-sheet onto German Lowland. The distance between outcrops of Scandinavian rocks causes the number of erratics in sediments of glacial accumulation in the German part of the Odra lobus. There are more Mesosoic rocks in the gravelly fraction as compared with sediments of the same age, but sampled in the Polish part of the Odra lobus. The stony fraction (20-60 mm) is represented mainly by indicator erratics from Smĺland and the Swedish coast in Kalmar Strait. Ĺland erratics, quite frequent in Polish lowlands, are observed rarely in Uckermark. Among statistical erratics there are numerous flints and Mesosoic limestones as well as Lower-Palaeozoic limestones. The theoretical stone centre moves its locality within middle-southern Smĺland.
