Abstract

The Malmédy Formation, subdivided into three members and consisting essentially of reddish continental conglomerate deposits, is exposed in a 2.5 km to 0.5 km wide and about 22 km long graben structure across the Stavelot Massif, in the eastern part of the Ardennes. It is most likely of Permian age.

Keywords : Permian, Malmédy Formation and members, E Ardennes, Belgium
