Abstract

The aim of the study is to propound a conceptional consideration and to call attention to the results of paleobiochemical investigations, which allow to draw the conclusion that a new procedure can be elaborated for geological epoch determinations. This statement applies to sediments embedding persistent taxons, and is valid within the limit of 30—35 million years. The author considers as taxon specific the molluscan shell and mammalian bones (fossil remainders) as an organic calcified biogenic system, in its entirety. Contrary to previous methods, comparisons of the bones and shells from different geological epochs were performed by the thermoanalytic (derivatographic) measurement of the total amount of so-called bound water and organic material.
