The peculiar Jadar block has an intervening position separating the main Neotethyanvs. West Vardar Zone (includingvs. ophiolites of Late Jurassic age) and a passive margin lithospheric segment of the Apulia/Adria microplate referred to as the Drina-Ivanjica block. The review aimed to reassess the peri- Neotethyan paleogeography affecting the evolution of the Neotethyan oceanic crust (‘single’ ‘multiple oceans’ or single- two ophiolite belts) by juxta - posing the key differences of the late Variscan temporal evolution (controlling early Alpine paleogeography) between the Jadar block and Drina–Ivanjica crystalline segment. The study goal is the questionable paleogeographic affinity of the Jadar block. Contrary to the recent inferences attributing the Jadar block as a segment of the Apulia/Adria microplate, the study examine whether and how the Jadar Late Paleozoic succession may allow for an alter - Key words: native paleogeographic solution of the Neotethyan relevance.

The studied area is located south of Avala Mt. and its geotectonic position is rather obscure. The obtained data allow us to determine radiolarians from five samples; one is of Late Anisian to Early Ladinian, and four of them are of Middle Jurassic (Late Bathonian–Early Callovian) age. The finding of Triassic as well as Jurassic age radiolarians in one and the same me´lange suggests that this me´lange formed during obduction of the Western Vardar ophiolites.

Nearest larger cities are Valjevo (30 km to the south), Loznica (70 kmto the east) and Šabac (40 km to the north). An arterial road, Valjevo-Šabac, runs S - N at west part of the permit, connecting it to a railway marshalling yard at Valjevo. Within the permit itself, a network of few asphalt and mostly gravel and dirt roads connects practically all parts of the permit area. • Due to Mining Law stipulations, Koceljeva area had to be sub-divided into two sub- areas in order to keep them under the limit of 100km2. • Koceljeva area has been divided into the western and eastern part, named Koceljeva and Trlić, respectively. www.serbiamining.rs 4 24.8.2016. Criteria for choosing this area • The criteria for choosing these areas is not very elaborate, since Jadarite deposit model doesn't exist: • The basin has to be confined and not too large, in order to facilitate concentration of B and Li • It should be within the so-called Vardar zone • Granitoid intrusions as a possible source of lithium should be in the vicinity • Presence of Tertiary volcanic/volcano-sedimentary units within the basin is deemed favourable.

    Bronze Age Amber in Western and Central Balkans Bronastodobni

    Arheološki vestnik 71, 2020, 133–172; DOI: https://doi.org/10.3986/AV.71.03 133 Bronze Age amber in Western and Central Balkans Bronastodobni jantar na zahodnem in srednjem Balkanu Mateusz CWALIŃSKI Izvleček V članku se avtor ukvarja s problematiko dotoka jantarja na zahodni in srednji Balkan v času bronaste dobe (natanč- neje okoli 1600–900 pr. n. št.) ter njegovim kroženjem med regijami tega območja. Razpoložljivi podatki, povezani s to temo, so bili analizirani z uporabo različnih računskih metod. Predhodno tipološko opredeljene jantarne jagode kažejo kronološke razlike, kar omogoča delitev na dva glavna sklopa, ki ju je mogoče pripisati srednji in mlajši oz. pozni bro- nasti dobi. Nekatere oblike so v uporabi v obeh obdobjih. Za številne tipe je značilen omejen obseg razprostranjenosti, ki verjetno govori za lokalno proizvodnjo. Tipe jantarnih jagod avtor primerja tudi z jantarnimi izdelki s sosednjih ob- močij z jantarjem. Izbrani predmeti, ki se pojavljajo skupaj z jantarjem, dodatno osvetljujejo notranjo dinamiko kroženja jantarja in kažejo na potencialne udeležence izmenjave. Ključne besede: Balkan; bronasta doba; jantar; nakit; menjava; trgovina; analiza stikov; analiza mrež Abstract The paper touches upon the issue of amber inflow to Western and Central Balkans, and its circulation between in- dividual regions situated in this zone, during the Bronze Age (more specifically around 1600–900 BC). By using several computational methods, currently available data related to this topic is re-analysed. Previously distinguished types of amber beads show chronological differentiation that allows separating them into two major assemblages assignable to the Middle and Late Bronze Age respectively, with some forms having a prolonged use, overlapping both periods.
