Clay mineralogy of bauxites and palaeosols in Istria formed during regional subaerial exposures of the Adriatic Carbonate Platform

This excursion is largely based upon the Field Trip P8 (Regional Subaerial Unconformities in Shallow-Marine Carbonate Sequences of Istria: sedimentology, Mineralogy, Geochemistry and Micromorphology of Associated Bauxites, Palaeosols and Pedo-Sedimentary Complexes) of the 22nd IAS Regional Meeting held in Opatija, Croatia (DURN et al., 2003). Unlike the aforementioned fieldtrip, this excursion comprises 3 stops instead of 8, but data on clays are presented in more detail
