Geology

Short characteristics of the site: This locality is called "Nezabudický mlýn - the Nezabudice Mill". It is represented by set of outcrops along a road cut. The sequence of schists is exposed with special layers of alum schists. They contain pyrite and are covered by films. On nearby places such alum schists were exploited for production of sulphuric acid. The sediment sequence belongs to the Kralupy-Zbraslav Group of Neoproterozoic age.
