Tielt Formation
The Tielt Formation ((オランダ語:Formatie van Tielt); (フランス語:Formation de Tielt); abbreviation: Tt; named after the town of Tielt in West-Flanders) is a geologic formation in the subsurface of Belgium. The formation crops out in the north of Hainaut, in the southern and central parts of West- and East-Flanders and in Walloon and Flemish Brabant. It consists of marine very fine sand and silt, deposited in the shallow sea that covered Belgium during the middle and late Ypresian age (early Eocene, about 50 million years ago).
The Tielt Formation is 50 metres thick at most. It is subdivided into three members: the Kortemark Member, the Egemkapel Member and the Egem Member (glauconiferous fine sand). The formation lies stratigraphically on top of the Kortrijk Formation (early Ypresian sandy clay and silt). In the northwestern part of Belgium, the Gentbrugge Formation (late Ypresian marine clay and silt) covers the Tielt Formation. If the Gentbrugge Formation is absent, the younger Brussel Formation (Lutetian calcareous sand) is directly found on top of the Tielt Formation.
