Correlation of the Coniacian and Santonian stages of the Upper Cretaceous in the Anglo-Paris Basin

Gale Andrew Scott

Acta Geologica Polonica

2024

Vol. 74, no. 2

art. no. e8

The correlation of the Coniacian and Santonian chalks of the Anglo-Paris Basin is described on the basis of detailed lithological logs and extensive records of macrofossils and microcrinoids. In the almost complete absence of ammonites, inoceramid bivalves afford the highest resolution correlation of these stages in chalks, but their value here is limited by the absence of key genera and species, most notably in the Upper Coniacian and middle and Upper Santonian. Echinoids and other macrofossils (brachiopods, stalked crinoids, belemnites) have proved useful, but many are long-ranging or uncommon. Some marker beds, including flints and marl seams, provide useful correlations across the basin, but are locally absent. For the Upper Santonian, the stemless benthonic crinoids Uintacrinus and Marsupites provide high-resolution correlation, both within the basin and to other regions. The successions on the basin margins, in the far north of France (Nord, Pas de Calais) and the southwest (Touraine) are condensed and yield ammonites in association with important inoceramid species. The controls on sedimentation caused by sea-level changes are evaluated on a basinal and global scale, most especially for the Upper Santonian.
