Abstract
Turbidites mega-beds are the product of convulsive sedimentary events and provide time lines for the study of the stratigraphic record. An integrated and detailed study of depositional facies, petrography. paleontology and geochemistry of Cassio mega-beds allows: 1) determination of individual sediment types stored before resedimentation: 2) recognition of source area locations, types of triggering mechanisms, and transport/depositional processes, bottom fauna ecologu and diagenetic modifications.
