Blanice Graben. Field Trip 1A
Martínek, K. ; Drábková, J. ; Mikuláš, Radek ; Šimůnek, Z. ; Zajíc, Jaroslav
Lithostratigraphic, biostratigraphic, and paleontological (fauna, flora, spores, ichnofossils) data of the Blanice Graben are summarized. The tectonic and kinematic model of the basin is done. Five important localities are described.

An Environmental Impact of Pyritic Bauxite from the Dajti Mine, Albania
Novák, Jiří Karel ; Minařík, Luděk ; Peza, Luftulla Hasan ; Melka, Karel
The accelerated chemical weathering of bauxite due to acid atmospheric deposition and breakdown of pyrite was simulated using short-termed laboratory acid leaching at 20 o C. Pyrite-bearing gibbsite-boehmitic bauxite giving rise to a number of questions concerning ecology was tested along with oxic boehmitic bauxite from the Dajti mine and that from Mali Korites (Mali Thate Mts., SE Albania). The leachte of pyrite-bearing and sulphate-producing bauxite is enriched in the following risk elements: Cd, Be, Zn, Ni, Co, and much less Cr, Cu, As, and Pb. Toxic soluble hydroxy-alumina ions may be also released into the aquatic environment, because of high concentration in output leachate (563 mg/l). In contrast, the leachates of oxic boehmitic bauxites commonly contain much lower concentrations of toxic elements with exception of Cu (Dajti mine) and Be (new occurence of Mali Korites).

Soil cover of Přední Kobyla site (Bohemian Karst) genesis: role of clay minerals
Žigová, Anna ; Šťastný, Martin
Soil cover of Přední Kobyla site (Bohemian Karst) is represented by relict soils. Přední Kobyla site is covered by illimerized brown earthifield terra fusca with slight sings of pseudogleization. Fractions 0.01 mm and 0.001 mm from the soil profile are charakterized mainly by kaolinite, illite and quartz. Stage and distribution of plagioclase and feldspar in soil reflect the strong weathering process. In association with clay minerals kaolinite is dominant.
