Abstract
A lower Liassic to upper Miocene sedimentary sequence, west of Tagliamento, marks a transition from the reef facies of the Friuli zone to the deep water sediments of the Julian Alps. Three distinct tectonic regions can be separated by their stratigraphy: the Pradis-Forgaria autochthon of upper Cretaceous rudistid limestone and lower Eocene flysch underlying Oligocene marls and Miocene molasse; an inclined fold in the Pala-Prat-Pedroc area consisting of Norian to Paleocene fossiliferous limestones; and the Corno-Covria unit. The major tectonics are considered to be post-Pontian.
