| Tadushi locality (PIN collection 3364) | Blagoderov V. A. (2000) | Tadushi | The age of the Tadushi Formation is controversial. It is usually considered to be Paleocene: late Paleocene, possibly Thanetian (Rasnitsyn & Zherikhin, 2002); middle Paleocene (Selandian – earliest Thanetian) (Pavlyutkin & Petrenko, 2010); or even early Danian (Akhmetiev, 2010), based on its insects and flora. However, radiometric dating of volcanic rocks of the underlying Bogopol Formation and basalts of the overlaying Suvorovo Formation shows that the Tadushi Formation is Eocene. The age of sa | mudstone | 56 - 47.8 Ma Eocene |
