Once more on the age of the Anělská Hora Formation in the Nízký Jesenik Mts

Journal of the Czech Geological Society, volume 41 (1996), issue 1-2, 116 - 118

The discovery of a coral of the genus Lithostrotion in the pebbly mudstone present at the top of the Andělská Hora Formation merely points to the possibility that the uppermost of this formation may be of Viséan age. By contrast, the conodont fauna from Chabičov V-101 borehole unambiguously attests the Tournaisian age of the upper part of the Andělská Hora Formation. Its lower part, situated farther west, is most probably of Upper Devonian age.
