Collection of core samples from DSDP Leg 11, illustrated core-samples (Sites 98, 99A, 100, 105), rock specimens to Plate 5, Fig. 2 (deformed pelagic calcilutite, DB 19190) and Plate 9, Fig. 3 (Scisti Ittiolitici, DB 653), a collection of thin sections from DSDP Leg 11, a collection of diapositives showing thin sections from DSDP Leg 11. One yellow folder with SEM micrograph prints including SEM session protocols, mostly from Leg 11, but also with SEM micrographs to other DSDP Legs. Compare especially with lithologies and facies descriptions (for example core-slabs with Fig. 20) in review article of Bernoulli, D. and Jenkyns, H.C. (2009). Ancient oceans and continental margins of the Alpine-Mediterranean Tethys: deciphering clues from Mesozoic pelagic sediments and ophiolites. Sedimentology, 56:149-190. Several rock specimens to similar lithologies but from alpine areas are deposited alongside for comparison (see especially Fig. 11 in Benoulli & Jenkins (2009) for ferromangamese sediments or Fig. 20 for pelagic nannofosil ooze, or Fig. 34 for neptunian dykes).

(eds.): Geology of Northwest African Continental Margin, pp. 498-525. Springer, Berlin. Reprint deposited in K3/Cabinet 69 with reference literature.

Collection of sectioned rock samples and 26 thin-sections (in green box), and diapositives to selected thin-sections. There exist also additional Film-negatives to various studies of D. Bernoulli.
 
Included in this collection are also sectioned sediment rock samples and thin-sections, that were collected in 1975 and evaluated by Lukas Hottinger together with D. Bernoulli, in the geological context of the study of Robertson and Bernoulli (1982). These additional samples comprise a plastic box with thin sections labelled with DB (Daniel Bernoulli) numbers, and thin sections 75003, 75004, 75006, and Dakar, which were prepared by L. Hottinger. Sectioned rock samples include Hottinger's numbers 75002 - 75007. Selected literature, correspondence, notes, and a field-guide from Fuerteventura showing the sample locations of 75003, 75004, 75006 are also deposited alongside the collection.
The thin-sections labelled as "Dakar" from a rock-sample collected from the beach Anse St. Bernard, Dakar (Senegal, NW Africa). It represents a "Bloc (Miocene) dans Basaltes" containing Lepidocyclines, indicating the age of the Tertiary volcanism in the context of the geological history of Cap-Verde to the Senegalo-Mauretanian Basin (see especially page 59 ff. in the thesis of Bellion, Y.

Reference collection to Aghib, F.S., Bernoulli, D. and Weissert, H. (1991). Hardground formation in the Bannock Basin, Eastern Mediterranean. Marine Geology, vol. 100, pp. 103-113. (Reprint deposited with the collection).

Illustrated hardground specimens, Fig. 2a-d. Additional dredge samples (sectioned) of hardgrounds (in polystyrol cases, fore more info see accompanying blue folder "BANNOCK BASIN" with drawins and descriptions to individual specimens, from 1984 cruise of R.V. Bannock). Two boxes (BAN 84 11-D, LIT. F) with thin sections to the hardground specimens. Included are also macroscopic fotographs and SEM micrographs (prints, negative films) to individual samples.
