Abstract: | The development of the Yugoslavian, Albanian, and Italian segments of the Mediterranean geosyncline is compared, using the province of Montenegro as the standard for correlation of the paleogeographic analysis during the Alpine tectonic cycle. The tectonic zones, characteristic of the Montenegro area are four in number and given as the Maritime zone with rocks ranging from Upper Carboniferous to Oligocene; the old Montenegro zone consisting of Triassic, Jurassic, Cretaceous and upper Oligocene sediments; the Ku?a zone deposits ranging from Upper Permian through Mesozoic; and the Durmitor zone with Devonian, Carboniferous, Permian, Triassic, and Jurassic sedimentary and volcanic-sedimentary bodies and Upper Cretaceous flysch.—IGR Staff. |
