The Magnetic Intensity data of aeromagnetic survey, as conducted by Nigerian Geological Survey Agency, were acquired from sheets 200 and 201 for qualitative and quantitative interpretation purposes. The area is bounded by latitudes 8.5°N–9.0°N and longitudes 3.5°E–4.5°E covering an area of about 6150.50 km². The data were reduced off the regional f...

An exploratory borehole cross-cutting Miocene deposits near Derezna (south of Kučevo town, Eastern Serbia) has intercepted Lower Cretaceous carbonate rocks in its lower part. The identified microfacies and micropaleontological associations indicate a Barremian age for these limestones. Among the identified dasycladalean algae, Salpingoporella patru...
