Rock fragments from mud breccia extruded by mud volcanoes, discovered during the TTR-4 cruise of the R/V Gelendzhik on the western Mediterranean Ridge, are represented by a number of different lithologies. They provide important information on the composition, genesis, and age of the deep-seated sedimentary series of the basin. Lithological description and age determination of the main rock types...
Two basic sediment types are recorded in the Mediterranean Ridge diapiric belt: the host sediment and the mud breccia. The host sediment consists of hemipelagic marl as dominant lithology, associated with sapropels and tephras as minor isochronous lithologies. A high resolution stratigraphy, which allows much more detailed and precise correlations than those based on biostratigraphy (essentially...
