    1 Revision 2 2 K-Bentonites: A Review 3 Warren D. Huff 4 Department of Geology, University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, OH 45221 USA 5 Email: [email protected] 6 Keywords: K-bentonite, bentonite, tephra, explosive volcanism, volcanic ash 7 Abstract 8 Pyroclastic material in the form of altered volcanic ash or tephra has been reported and described 9 from one or more stratigraphic units from the Proterozoic to the Tertiary. This altered tephra, 10 variously called bentonite or K-bentonite or tonstein depending on the degree of alteration and 11 chemical composition, is often linked to large explosive volcanic eruptions that have occurred 12 repeatedly in the past. K-bentonite and bentonite layers are the key components of a larger group of 13 altered tephras that are useful for stratigraphic correlation and for interpreting the geodynamic 14 evolution of our planet. Bentonites generally form by diagenetic or hydrothermal alteration under 15 the influence of fluids with high Mg content and that leach alkali elements. Smectite composition is 16 partly controlled by parent rock chemistry. Studies have shown that K-bentonites often display 17 variations in layer charge and mixed-layer clay ratios and that these correlate with physical 18 properties and diagenetic history. The following is a review of known K-bentonite and related 19 occurrences of altered tephra throughout the time scale from Precambrian to Cenozoic. 20 Introduction 21 Volcanic eruptions are often, although by no means always, associated with a profuse output 22 of fine pyroclastic material, tephra. Tephra is a term used to describe all of the solid material 23 produced from a volcano during an eruption (Thorarinsson, 1944).

  • UPPER DEVONIAN CONODONTS ASSOCIATED with a LARGE PLACODERM FISH SKULL from the CANNING BASIN, WESTERN... Download
    Rec. West. Aust. Mus. 1987,13 (4): 501-513 Upper Devonian conodonts associated with a large placoderm fish skull from the Canning Basin, Western Australia John A. Long* Abstract Conodonts retrieved from limestone encasing the skull of a large placoderm fish, from an unknown lo'cation in the south-eastern Canning Basin, indicate an age of mid-Famennian (toIIB) because of the concurrent presence of the following taxa: Nothognathella palmatiformis, Nothognathella sp. nov, A. Druce 1976,Palmatolepis glabra pectinata, P. quadrantinodosa inflexa, P. quadrantinodosa inflexoidea, P. marginifera s.s., Polygnathus triphyllatus, P. glaber s.s. and P. germanus s.s. The assemblage represents a palmatolepid-polygnathid biofacies dominated by palmatolepids, and is typical of muddy outer shelf to sandy inner shelf environ­ ments. The occurrence of certain taxa which have only been previously recorded in the Canning Basin from the Virgin Hills Formation, together with the lithology of the specimen, and palaeoecological information afforded by the conodonts, suggests that the specimen was derived from the uppermost section of the Virgin Hills Formation. Introduction A large dinichthyid placoderm fish skull has recently been described as a new genus, Westralichthys Long (1987) even though the exact location and lithological source of the specimen is unknown. A limited conodont fauna of 76 elements was recovered from dilute acetic acid preparation of the dinichthyid skull. The fauna contains a number of age diagnostic species which have been used to narrow the possible age and stratigraphic source of the specimen. It is significant that the conodonts indicate a much younger age for the skull than the well known lower Frasnian Gogo fish fauna (Gardiner and Miles 1975), also from the same region.

  • A New Species of the Conodont Genus Siphonodella Branson & Mehl
    Estonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2017, 66, 4, 188–192 https://doi.org/10.3176/earth.2017.15 A new species of the conodont genus Siphonodella Branson & Mehl (late Tournaisian) Andrey V. Zhuravlev Institute of Geology Komi SC, UrB RAS, Pervomayskaya 54, 167000 Syktyvkar, Russia; [email protected] Received 3 April 2017, accepted 6 June 2017, available online 16 October 2017 Abstract. A new upper Tournaisian (Lower Carboniferous) siphonodellid conodont species Siphonodella carinata n. sp. is described. The material comes from the shallow-water carbonate sediments of the Pechora Swell (Timan-Pechora region or NE of European Russia). The co-occurrence of conodonts Hindeodus cristulus (Youngquist & Miller), Bispathodus stabilis (Branson & Mehl) Morphotype 1, Polygnathus longiposticus Branson & Mehl and Pseudopolygnathus nodomarginatus (Branson) suggests the late Tournaisian (Lower Siphonodella crenulata Zone) age of the deposits. Morphologically the new species is similar to Siphonodella semichatovae Kononova & Lipnjagov and S. ludmilae Zhuravlev & Plotitsyn, but differs in possessing three rostral ridges at the late stages of ontogeny and Class III symmetry. The presence of the shallow-water siphonodellids Siphonodella bella Kononova & Migdisova and S. quasinuda Gagiev, Kononova & Pazuhin in the upper part of the Tournaisian is detected for the first time. Key words: Conodonta, new species, Siphonodella carinata n. sp., Lower Carboniferous, Tournaisian. INTRODUCTION platform and a wide pseudokeel or depressed keel at the aboral side of Pa elements. Traditionally species of the genus Siphonodella are used The shallow-water siphonodellids of the Chinese for biostratigraphy of the lower part of the Tournaisian branch appeared in the earliest Tournaisian and ranged (Sandberg et al. 1978; Ji 1985; Ji & Ziegler 1992; up to the late Tournaisian (Ji & Ziegler 1992).

E- mails: [email protected]; [email protected] Abstract A new species of Gnathodus, G. joseramoni, is defined and Gnathodus cantabricus Belka & Lehmann is revised from the study of some new conodont associations and analysis of previous data from the Cantabrian Mountains and the Pyrenees, North Iberian Peninsula. G. cantabricus is regarded as a junior synonym of Gnathodus kiensis Pazukhin from the Urals. Other occasional European findings of both taxa are indicated and stratigraphic middle Viséan to Arnsbergian ranges are established. Finally, the phylogenetic relations with other Gnathodus species are also outlined. Key words: Conodont, Systematic Palaeontology, Mississippian, Cantabrian Mountains, Pyrenees. Resumen Se define una especie nueva de Gnathodus, G. joseramoni, y se revisa a Gnathodus cantabricus Belka & Lehmann, a partir de nuevas asociaciones de conodontos y el análisis de los datos previos en la Cordillera Cantábrica y los Pirineos, Norte de la Península Ibérica. G. cantabricus se considera un taxón sinónimo más moderno que Gnathodus kiensis Pazukhin de los Urales.

  • Catalog of Type Specimens of Invertebrate Fossils: Cono- Donta
    % {I V 0> % rF h y Catalog of Type Specimens Compiled Frederick J. Collier of Invertebrate Fossils: Conodonta SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO PALEOBIOLOGY NUMBER 9 SERIAL PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION The emphasis upon publications as a means of diffusing knowledge was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution. In his formal plan for the Insti­ tution, Joseph Henry articulated a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This keynote of basic research has been adhered to over the years in the issuance of thousands of titles in serial publications under the Smithsonian imprint, com­ mencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Annals of Flight Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes original articles and monographs dealing with the research and collections of its several museums and offices and of profes­ sional colleagues at other institutions of learning. These papers report newly acquired facts, synoptic interpretations of data, or original theory in specialized fields. These publications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, laboratories, and other in­ terested institutions and specialists throughout the world. Individual copies may be obtained from the Smithsonian Institution Press as long as stocks are available.

Abstract Slovenian Basin was formed during the Ladinian following disintegration of the Slo- venian Carbonate Platform. It persisted continuously until the Late Cretaceous. Several conodont asscociations were recognized within the Triassic rocks of the Slovenian Basin. Stratigraphically significant species belong to the genera Budurovignathus, Epigondolel- la, Gladigondolella, Metapolygnathus, Misikella, Neogondolella, Nicoraella, Norigondo- lella and Paragondolella.
