Abstract

During the Upper Cretaceous - Paleocene, after closure of the Vardar Ocean and collision processes (Laramie orogeny phase), on the territory of the Vardar zone and Serbian - Macedonian massif, in conditions of extension, were formed continental trenches where Paleogene molassa sediments are deposited. Lithostratigraphical structure of Paleogene sediments in the basins can be analysed on numerous open cross sections. Deep drilling was performed in the Tikves and Ovce Pole basin ( to 2703 m ). Paleogene sediments have been identified as Upper Eocene - Priabonian and Lower Oligocene (Maksimovič et al., 1954; Dzuranov et al., 1999; Stojanova, 2008), with a maximum thickness of 3000 - 4000 m.
