Geochemical and paleontological characterization of a new K-Pg Boundary locality from the Northern branch of the Neo-Tethys: Mudurnu-Göynük Basin, NW Turkey. Vrije Universiteit Brussel
A Cretaceous-Paleogene (K-Pg) succession is studied in detail in the Mudurnu-Goynuk basin in northwestern Turkey. To characterize the K-Pg transition in this basin, two stratigraphic sections were measured and sampled at high resolution: the Okçular and the GEUROoynu?k North sections. These sections were analysed for siderophile trace elements, including Ir and other platinum group elements (PGE: Ru, Rh, Pd, Ir, Pt), bulk stable carbon isotopes, ...
