This study concerns the quartzoase sands of “detritic formation”, from the base of
the lost sedimentation cycle in this area of Moldavian Platform.
Based on grain – size and morphoscopic analyses we determined some grain – size
distribution parameters (sorting, standard deviation, graphic skewness), and we
reconstructed the sedimentation environments.
The morphoscopic analysis revealed that the sand grains were worked in different
sedimentary environment such as: fluvial, deltaic and tidal.
