Continuing south, we soon reached today's geotope.
14. Former Großmaulburg gravel pit near Vilsbiburg > significant
“The sediments exposed in the former gravel pit are placed in the Moldanubian Series of the Upper Upper Freshwater Molasse. The pit is completely overgrown except for two smaller outcrops. Previously, on the former mining wall, cylindrical cavities in the sediment could be seen in diagonally layered sands (leading to feldspar and biotite, with iron hydroxide impregnations), which indicated embedded driftwood. Leaf flora was found in clay lenses” (Environmental Atlas of Bavaria)
