Artykuł “Interpretation of seismic data from compression areas” – prof. Piotr Krzywiec pochodzi z serwisu AMU Poznań Student Chapter of the AAPG.

The group of 32 participants representing reaserchers, professionals and students from Poland (Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznan), Romania (University of Bucharest and Babes Bolyai University) and the Netherlands (Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, Delft University of Technology and EBN) took part in field trip. Our guide was Dr. Wojciech Śliwiński from the University of Wrocław.

On the first day of the field trip (19th April) we visited two outcrops, Leszczyna and Płóczki Dolne in the North-Sudetic Synclinorium to observe succeeding stages of the Zechstein marine transgression, both are the complex of abandoned quarries. It was the shortest day in the field, because of the large distance we had to cross during this day from the starting point (Poznań).

On the second day we visited the KGHM company Rudna and Polkowice-Sieroszowice mines. It was a great opportunity to see how the Permian rocks look in fresh underground subcrops. Also we take a look at Wielisławka Organs – a rhyolitic volcanities buliding phenomenal wall and Rożana quarry with basaltic andesites with occurrences of agates.

On 21th April we visited two abandoned quarry: Świerzawa and Wojcieszów where are visible fluvial cylothemes and Cambrian methamorphosed limestones. We did a short tour around Bolków medieval castle ruins, and moved to Intra-Sudetic Synclinorium, to outrcrops in Wałbrzch (in the past .a big center of coal-mining) and to quarry Czarny Bór – Grzędy with Rotliegend-age trachyandesites .

In the evening, we had an oral session with eight talks. It was composed of two parts: the first, student session concerned mainly our M.Sc theses and topics associated with educational courses and second – presentations of professionals.

On 22th April we visited several inactive quarries: Nowa Ruda-Bieganów, Tłumaczów and Golińsk we had an opportunity to look at several different rock types of Rotliegend: mudstones, sandstones, conglomeratic and also succession of volcanic and pyroclastic rocks.

Łączna – the Czartowskie Skały (the Devilish Rocks) was a picturesque set of outcrops built by the Lower Triassic arcose sandstones. The last point of the day – Kochanów was the outcrops of massive dolomites which are interpreted to have primary travertine orgin. After the geological stops, we visited magnificent Krzeszów monastery – the pearl of Silesian baroque architecture.

On the last day of the field trip, we visited Radków which is an exposure built of clastic rocks with limestone intercalations interpreted as caliche deposits. The last point of the field trip was Karłów in the Stołowe Mountains, i. e. “the Table Mountains”, we did a touristic trail to the Szczeliniec Wielki, the highest peak of the range (919 m a.s.l.) the weather surprised us! Nobody expected a snowfall in the end of a April!

The lectures from the series “Visiting Geoscientists” represent a very high level, invited guests are the best specialists in their field of interests, we hope that you will not miss our lecture!

Artykuł “Integration of geology and geophysics in hydrocarbon exploration and field development” – Carlos Aizprúa (Statoil) pochodzi z serwisu AMU Poznań Student Chapter of the AAPG.

Introduction will present the issues discussed in the engineering work, which reviewed the sedimentation processes leading to the formation of reservoir rocks for oil and gas in the deep sea environment.

Artykuł Our new event! pochodzi z serwisu AMU Poznań Student Chapter of the AAPG.

During this workshops, the participants took part in workshops and lectures, which were led by specialists from universities and industry. Two members of our chapter presented their presentation: Weronika Miklaszewska: Surprising Geology – what kind of puzzle rocks are making for us during the well logging interpretation and Klaudia Walczak with a poster: Characteristic of detritic heavy minerals from Middle Triasic carbonate rocks from Racibowice Górne (Lower Silesia) – origin of terigenic material.

We are grateful for an organization of such a great event and we are waiting for next edition, which will take place next year!
