An overview of eleven disused Neogene regional stages from Belgium is presented. Some of the regional stages were already brought into use in the nineteenth century, but are nowadays considered ill defi ned and of no use in the light of the modern stratigraphic concepts. An overview of their defi nition and history is given, together with the argumentation for the abandonment of each unit and its present status. S e disused chronostratigraphic units belonged to the Miocene, the Pliocene and the Holocene series.

    Antwerp is the second largest city of Belgium, and the largest city of the Flemish region. The city itself has half a million inhabitants, the metropolitan area about 1,2 million. The port of Antwerp is the second largest in Europe, and has a history dating back to the 12th century. Language Belgium has three official languages; French, Dutch and German. The southern part of Belgium speaks French, a small part east speak German, and the northern part - Flanders - speak Flemish, which is a Dutch dialect. The Brussels area is bilingual French and Flemish. So in Antwerp we speak Flemish/Dutch. Due to the port, Antwerp has always been visited by foreigners and you will have no trouble speaking English, French or even German. History Excavations have shown that Antwerp was inhabited as long ago as the Gallo-Roman period (2nd or 3rd century A.D.). The city appears to have grown up around two settlements: the 'aanwerp' (alluvial mound) from which it takes its name and Caloes, 500 meters further south. The city first experienced an economic boom in the 12th century, when the rival port of Bruges started silting up. By the first half of the 14th century, Antwerp had become the most important trading and financial center in Western Europe, its reputation based largely on its seaport and wool market. In 1356, the city, which had been part of the Holy Roman Empire, was annexed to the County of Flanders and lost lots of its privileges, partly to Bruges' advantage. Fifty years later, the political and economic tide turned again and as the Golden Age unfolded, Antwerp became a world class metropolis, described as 'the loveliest city in the world'.

  • Stratigraphy of an Early–Middle Miocene Sequence Near Antwerp in Northern Belgium (Southern North Sea Basin)
    GEOLOGICA BELGICA (2010) 13/3: 269-284 STRATIGRAPHY OF AN EARLY–MIDDLE MIOCENE SEQUENCE NEAR ANTWERP IN NORTHERN BELGIUM (SOUTHERN NORTH SEA BASIN) Stephen LOUWYE1, Robert MARQUET2, Mark BOSSELAERS3 & Olivier LAMBERT4† (5 figures, 2 tables & 3 plates) 1Research Unit Palaeontology, Ghent University, Krijgslaan 281/S8, 9000 Gent, Belgium.

E-mail: [email protected] 4Département de Paléontologie, Institut royal des Sciences naturelles de Belgique, rue Vautier 29, 1000 Brussels, Belgium. †Present address: Département Histoire de la Terre, Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle, rue Buffon 8, 75005, Paris, France. E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT. The lithostratigraphy and biostratigraphy of a temporary outcrop in the Antwerp area is described. The deposits can be attributed to the Kiel Sands and the Antwerpen Sands members, both belonging to the Lower and Middle Miocene Berchem Formation. Invertebrate and vertebrate macrofossils are abundantly present. The molluscan fauna compares well to former findings in the Antwerpen Sands Member. It can be concluded that the studied sequence is continuously present in the Antwerp area, and thickens in a northward direction. The study of the marine mammal fauna shows that eurhinodelphinids are the most common fossil odontocete (toothed-bearing cetaceans) in the Antwerpen Sands Member, associated here with kentriodontine, physeteroid, squalodontid, mysticete (baleen whales) and pinniped (seals) fragmentary remains. Both the molluscan fauna and the organic-walled palynomorphs indicate for the Antwerpen Sands Member deposition in a neritic, energetic environment, which shallowed upwards.

  • Tallest Electricity Pylons in the Benelux Open for Viewing on Open Site Day
    MAY 17, 2019 Tallest electricity pylons in the Benelux open for viewing on Open Site Day ANTWERP – Belgium's system operator Elia is taking part in Open Site Day on Sunday. The general public will be able to learn about the Brabo project in the Port of Antwerp, where the tallest electricity pylons in the Benelux are currently being built. At a height of 192 metres, these pylons will be the tallest structures in the Antwerp skyline. The Brabo project aims to upgrade the high-voltage grid and improve the security of supply at the Port of Antwerp and in Belgium. The last major investments in the high-voltage grid at the Port of Antwerp were made in the 1970s. An update to the grid was vital to facilitate the port's growth. The project will also enable imports from the Netherlands to increase. After the project has been completed, it will be possible to import 20% more electricity under ideal conditions. Finally, Elia's Brabo project will facilitate further integration into the European energy system. The second stage of the Brabo project at the Port of Antwerp is currently under way. The existing 150-kV high- voltage line is being renewed and upgraded to a 380-kV connection on the right bank in the Antwerp district of Berendrecht-Zandvliet-Lillo and the municipality of Stabroek. For 90% of the way, the connection will follow the current route along the A12 between the high-voltage substations at Zandvliet and Lillo (near the Liefkenshoek tunnel). This means that the line must cross the Scheldt to Beveren, where it will be connected to the existing 380- kV connection.
