Abstract

The Punta Serpeddi Formation (Caradoc-Ashgill) of Sardinia is composed of platform facies deposits accumulated in a sedimentary environment dominated by storm processes. These sediments are rich in heavy minerals (up to 12% by volume); the clastic supply probably came from the erosion of four main source-areas.
