Balbieriškio atodanga, Natural outcrop in Žydaviškis village, Lithuania.

The Balbieriškio outcrop extends 1.7 kilometers along the Nemunas River, reaching heights of 40 meters with slopes at 50-degree angles.

The geological formation contains limnoglacial sediments from the late Pleistocene period, revealing layers of materials deposited during ancient glacial activities.

The exposed banded clays at this location supply raw materials for traditional Lithuanian ceramic production, including bricks, tiles, and drainage pipes.

The slopes display visible layers of various sediments, including carbonated clay, bluish fat clay, and stratified aleurite, making it valuable for geological research.
