Description Excavations on the building site situated in the SE part of the city of Brno exposed Jurassic, Neogene and Quaternary deposits. The sedimentary petrographic analysis of deposits and geomorphic study has shown variations in the source area of Neogene marine deposits and terrestrial fluvial sedimentation during the Pleistocene. The uppermost terrestrial fluvial sediments are interpreted as terrace sediments of the Svitava River. The fluviatile sands and gravels reveal braided fluvial style acting in periglacial conditions of the Lower Pleistocene.
