of collections from Hans Schaub
Collection of samples from type localities
for European Tertiary regional stages (unprocessed raw materials):
- During the early 1960ies Hans Schaub and members of the NMB
collected representative lithological materials from classical
sites for European Tertiary regional stages. The indicated lists give
an overview of the unprocessed samples held at the Natural History
Museum Basel for reference purposes. Geological and micropaleontological
comments to localities and formations are given in the excursions
guide from Drooger et al., 1961).
- Please note, that several of the regional stage names, namely
those from Belgium, that are indicated on the sample bags, are
no longer in use by the stratigraphic community (see De Geyter et al., 2006).
