International audienceExploration drillings conducted by ANDRA at the Marcoule site (SE France) have shown that the targeted Gargasian marls paradoxically pinch out basinwards under the middle Rhône valley, probably due to emersion and erosion prior to the Vraconian (uppermost Albian) major transgression. The hiatus is “compensated” by the deposition of a very thick (more than 400 m) silty clay formation, named “couche silteuse de Marcoule”, Vraconian to lowermost Cenomanien in age, which is the major discovery at the site. The discovery clearly evidence that the geometry of the coastal wedge can no longer be described as a result of relative sea level fluctuations on a simple ramp. Four times during the Gargasian to Santonian intervall, t...
