Abstract
The Ordovician Millbrig K-bentonite of North America and the Kinnekulle Big Bed of Scandinavia have been considered correlative, thus representing one of the largest volcanic eruptions of the Phanerozoic. Whether these two K-bentonites correlate has implications for the paleogeographic reconstructions of Laurentia and Baltica, transoceanic biostratigraphic correlations of graptolites and conodonts, and the possibly global occurrence of the...
