Abstract

The Ovče Pole Basin is a large Paleogene sedimentary
mass with NW–SE trend that is superimposed on varied
rocks from the eastern part of the Vardar Zone in
the territory of the Republic of Macedonia (Fig. 1). It
is composed of 3.5 km thick succession, which is subdivided
into four units: basal unit, lower flysch unit,
unit of yellow sandstones and upper flysch unit. The
Paleogene sediments of the Ovče Pole Basin usually
contain abundant foraminiferal associations, which
are represented by a large number of specimens, referred
to diverse planktonic and benthic species. The
latter enabled a Late Eocene–Early Oligocene ages to be determined (Maksimovič et al., 1954; Stojanova et
al., 2012, 2013).
