Soft , horizontally bedded Upper Cretaceous (= Upper Maastrichtian) rocks occurring in the Lublin region are strongly deformed. Most structures (mesofaults, joints, and cleavage) are brittle tectonic deformations connected with the Late Laramian and Young Alpine phases of tectonic activity. However, some of the deformations are also indicative of t...

... of layers without signifi cant internal defor- mations, typical of two upper levels, in the lower levels are replaced by complicated deformation structures of domino- type, which consist of complexes of normal bedding-parallel faults with a convex profi le and a strongly slickensided sur- face. Th ey are usually limited to 2-3 layers (Fig. 3) and lat- erally disapper to SE (= on the distal slope of the hill). No domino-type structures were found in the lowest exploitation level (No V) at a depth of about 50 ...
