Rosental-Formation / Rosental Formation
Bernhard Hubmann
Validity: Invalid; name of the formation and position of the
unit published within a lithostratigraphic frame in Schönlaub & Heinisch (1993: “Rosental Fm.”).
Type area: ÖK50-UTM, map sheet 3106 Radenthein
(ÖK50-BMN, map sheet 183 Radenthein).
Type section: No type section published; type region
Rosental (N 46°54’25” / E 13°48’48”), a valley in the Nockalm area. Neubauer & Pistotnik (1984) published a section (location point 1 in Fig. 1 and section 1 “Nockstrasze”
in Fig. 2).
Reference section(s): Derivation of name: After Rosental in Carinthia, a valley
north of Bad Kleinkirchheim.
Synonyms: Partly: “Vulkanogene Basisfolgen” of Neubau& Pistotnik (1984).

Type area: ÖK50-UTM, map sheet 3106 Radenthein
(ÖK50-BMN, map sheet 184 Ebene Reichenau).
Type section: No type section defined; typical rocks are
exposed at Eisenhut mountain (N 46°57’08” / E 13°55’42”)
(see sections in Kerner (1990) and Kerner & Loeschke
(1991)).
Reference section(s): Derivation of name: After Eisenhut (2,441 m), a mountain
near Turracher Höhe, approximately 65 km northwest of
Klagenfurt.
Synonyms: Eisenhut-Schieferserie (Peters, 1855); Eisenhutschiefer (Schwinner, 1932, 1938); Eisenhut-Schie­
fer (IIIb) (Schwinner, 1936); Eisenhutschiefer (Heritsch,
1943; Schönlaub, 1979; Kerner & Loeschke, 1991);

Eisenhutschieferserie (Mulfinger, 1988); volcanoclastic
Eisenhut Group (Schönlaub & Heinisch, 1993).
Lithology: Weakly metamorphosed lila-colored ash tuffs,
dark-green hyaloclastites and green tuffites, dolomite
lenses.
Fossils: Conodonts within the dolomite lenses.
Origin, facies: According to Kerner & Loeschke (1991)
the formation of most of the rocks of the Eisenhut Group
is the result of intra-plate volcanic activity which occurred
in a tensional tectonic regime on thinned continental crust
during the Silurian. Phreatomagmatic processes were responsible for the formation of the tuffs and hyaloclastites.
Chronostratigraphic age: Lower Silurian–(presumably)
Lower Devonian.
Biostratigraphy: -
Lithology: Phyllites with various ferruginous dolomites
and cherty intercalations that are overlain by tuffites and
greenschists.
Thickness: About 200 m.
Fossils: Conodonts.
Underlying unit(s): Rosental Formation.
Origin, facies: Probably shallow marine environment.
Chronostratigraphic age: Upper Ordovician.
Biostratigraphy: -
Lithostratigraphically higher rank unit: Lithostratigraphic subdivision: Overlying unit(s): ?
Lateral unit(s): Murau Group (?).
Thickness: ?

Validity: Invalid; comprehensive description of the unit by
Mulfinger (1988: “Klastische Serie”).
Type area: ÖK50-UTM, map sheet 3106 Radenthein
(ÖK50-BMN, map sheet 184 Ebene Reichenau).
Type section: No type section defined; Mulfinger (1988)
mentioned typical occurrences at Rapitzsattel (2,088 m;
N 46°55’56” / E 13°56’35”), Torer and Spielriegel to Schafferalm (1,365 m; N 46°58’10” / E 14°00’14”).
