Unraveling the Origin of the Messinian? Evaporites in Zakynthos Island, Ionian Sea: Implications for the Sealing Capacity in the Mediterranean Sea

The new approach on depositional conditions of the Messinian evaporites in Zakynthos Island indicates that the evaporites in the Kalamaki and Ag. Sostis areas were redeposited during the Early Pliocene. They accumulated either as turbiditic evaporites or as slumped blocks, as a response to Kalamaki...
