pamiatka Benatinsky travertin:

[SK] Prirodna
pamiatka Benatinsky travertin je najvychodnejsie polozeny
travertinovy odkryv na Slovensku. Tento odkryv predstavuje recentnu
tvorbu travertinu vyzrazanim hydrouhlicitanu vapenateho a formuje
kaskadove kopy. Dazdova voda obohatena oxidom uhlicitym prenika pod
povrch priepustnymi horninami. Pri prenikani cez ne ich voda
rozpusta a prijima dalsi rozpusteny vapnik. Potom voda pomocou
tlaku CO2 stupa na povrch. Na tvorbe travertinu sa podielaju
rastliny, ( flora ) ktore z vody odoberaju CO2 ( oxid uhlika ) cim
je urychlene vyzrazavanie CaCO3 ( uhlicitan vapenaty ) v okoli
mineralnych alebo termalnych pramenov. Tieto travertiny obsahuju
zvysky malakofauny a jeho tvorba prebieha aj dnes. Prirodna
pamiatka je na ploche 0,24ha a bola vyhlasena v roku 1989.
Sladkovodne vapence – travertiny su situovane v
chemogenno-organogennych sedimentoch. Okolity geologicky utvar sa
nazyva Kvarter co inymi slovami znamena stvrtohory.

[SK]Od parkovacieho miesta su travertiny pristupne po asfaltovej
ceste 1,2km a su na lavej strane.

[SK] Na zalogovanie found it potrebujes navstivit
toto miesto a odpovedat na tieto otazky:
1. Travertiny obsahuju hojne odtlacky, ktore su vsade viditelne, aj
v ulomkoch pri ceste pod odkryvom. Uved ake odtlacky?
2. Popis ako sa travertinove ulomky pri manipulacii spravaju?
3. Na mieste zisti alebo odhadni, ktorym smerom travertin
narasta?
4. NEPOVINNE! Mozes prilozit svoju fotku pred travertinom....
Odpovede poslite na profil „devotus“. Logujte sa ihned.

Natural monument Benatinas travertine:
[EN] In Benatina is located on presented geographic coordinates a
uncovered travertine (easternmost in Slovakia). Recently is the
creation of travertine precipitation carbonate hydrate calcium and
shapes cascading kicks, which contains fossil remains of mollusc
fauna. Rain water enriched with carbon dioxide penetrates beneath
the surface of porous rocks. Penetrate through them the dissolves
and take another dissolved calcium. Then, using pressure of CO2
rises to the surface. In the vicinity of mineral or thermal
springs. Plants which promotes the formation. Travertine also
created at this time. The acreageis 0,24 hectars and for natural
monument was declared in 1989. Are located in chemogenic
organogenic-sediment. The surrounding geological formation called
quaternary.
[EN] For the valid "cache found" log: visited this
place and send me via profile e-mail answers to these
question:
1. Travertine contains different imprints that are located
everywhere including the road aside from the exposure place.
Specify what kind of imprints?
2. What happens when handling the travertine?
3. Please find out at the place, eventualy guess, the direction of
travertines creation?
4. FACULTATIVE! OPTIONAL ! You can add your photo in front of
travertine
Please send your answers into “devotus” profile and log
in. In case of wrong answers, you will be contacted.
From parking place you can get to travertines following asphalt
road (distance 1,2km) and they are visible on left side of the
road.
