Summary
| Description |
Italiano: Sulla riva sinistra del Reno si erge il contrafforte roccioso di Soprassasso composto da arenarie quarzoso-feldspatiche afferente alla Formazione di Antognola. L'affioramento è caratterizzato da cavità naturali e morfologie di degradazione dette "tafoni", comuni nelle zone marittime ma rare in Appennino. Qui l'erosione è dovuta all'azione aggressiva dell'acqua di condensazione o umidità da condensa e al vento. Le Grotte di Soprasasso (Grotta dei Piatti, Grotta Buia e Grotta di Soprasasso) sono un geosito di rilevanza locale nell'Appennino Bolognese, nel comune di Vergato. English: The cliff of Soprasasso, on the left bank of the river Reno, is composed of quartzose-feldspathic sandstones belonging to the Antognola Formation. The rocky outcrop is characterised by degradation morphologies called 'tafoni', which are common in maritime areas but rare in the Apennines. In this case, erosion is due to the aggressive action of humidity condensation water and wind. The Soprasasso Caves (Grotta dei Piatti, Grotta Buia and Grotta di Soprasasso) are a geological site of local importance located in the Municipality of Vergato, in the Bolognese Apennines. |
