Cretaceous bauxite (K22,3) from Hrušica-Nadrt deposited between the Turonian and Santonian beds. K22,3 bauxite, deposited between Turonian and Santonian limestone, is 0.8 m thick and displays a yellowish to brown to reddish colour. The bauxite fills the karst paleo-relief in Turonian limestone and has an oolitic texture. At the contact with the hanging wall, a bauxitic clay horizon is present. At the base of the profile, a bauxite breccia occurs, consisting of approximately 55% limestone clasts and 45% bauxitic matrix.
