Tremp Formation, Geological formation in Pre-Pyrenees, Spain.
The Tremp Formation contains various rock types including sandstone, conglomerates, shales, marls, siltstones, limestones, lignite, and gypsum beds across its terrain.
The formation developed during the Maastrichtian to Thanetian periods when tectonic compression created piggyback basins in the northeastern corner of the Iberian Plate.
The natural science museums in Tremp and Isona display numerous paleontological discoveries from the formation, educating visitors about regional geology.
Scientists access this formation to study sedimentology, stratigraphy, and paleontology through exposed rock layers that span 250 to 800 meters in thickness.
The site contains over 1,000 dinosaur bones and numerous nesting locations, revealing extensive information about prehistoric life in the region.
