This paper presents the new location of the known corals genera: Favosites Lamarck, 1816 and Halysites von Waldheim, 1828, in the Mineral Raw Materials Mine in Mielenko Drawskie, West Pomeranian Province, Poland. These corals were obtained as a result of many years of exploration in this mine, by searching individual lots of post-glacial materials extracted by this mine.

This report documents the new location of the representative Ordovician trilobite Asaphus expansus. This well-known trilobite was discovered in the “Storkowo” Mining Plant in the central part of the West Pomeranian Province in Poland.

Palynological assemblages were used in the determination of the age and paleoenvironment of the Nkporo and Enugu Formations of the Anambra Basin, Southeastern Nigeria. Palynological analysis carried out in over twenty-five samples (25) yielded spores, pollens and marine species. The main diagnostic species of spores and pollen recovered includes; Foveotriletes margaritae, Distaverrusporites simplex, Cingulatisporites ornatus, Echitriporites trianguliformis, Longapertites marginatus, Proteacidites segali, Monocolpites marginatus, Constructipollenites ineffectus, Buttinia andreevi, and Retidiporites which were dated to Late Campanian to Earliest Maastrichtian. Also, other sporomorphs includes; Longapertites marginatus (overwhelming abundance), Longapertites microfoveolatus, Longapertites vaneedenburgi, Spinizonocolpites baculatus, Foveotriletes margaritae, Distaverrusporites simplex, Cingulatisporites ornatus, Matonisporites equiexinus, Azolla marsulae, Mauritidiites crassibaculatus, Constructipollenites ineffectus, Echitriporites trianguliformis, Foveotriletes margaritae, and Leiotriletes minor were assigned to Early Maastrichtian. From the palynological analysis, the age-diagnostic index palynomorphs reveal that the Nkporo Group is within Late Campanian to Early Maastrichtian and the depositional environment is mostly marginal marine to marine.

This paper presents the results of many years of search for fossils that were discovered at the Mineral Raw Materials Mine in Mielenko Drawskie West Pomeranian Province, Poland. The most common fossils found in this mine are Ordovician trilobites of the genera Asaphus Brongniart, 1822, and Megistaspis Jaanusson, 1956, and Ordovician nautiloids of the genera Endoceras Hall, 1847, and Orthoceras Bruguière, 1789. Other fossils, such as: graptolites, bactritids, belemnites, ammonites, corals and various types of gastropods and bivalve molluscs, can also be found. The oldest fossils discovered are the Cambrian trilobites of the genus Agnostus Brongniart, 1822. This mine has fossils ranging from the Cambrian to the Quaternary. These fossils were transported in erratic boulders across the ice sheet from Scandinavia. Currently, the mine extracts gravel and sand, as well as stones and erratic boulders on an industrial scale, which are then crushed and used as building material in the form of aggregate.
