• Description: The pebbles of garnet mica-schist with tourmaline from Račice and Luleč Conglomerates, Drahany Upland were studied using mineralogical and petrological methods. Mineral assemblage, chemical composition of garnet and tourmaline is similar to those from Olešnice Group of the Svratka Dome and Mica-schist Zone. The pebbles of garnet mica-schist present the evidence for input of clastic material from Svratka Dome and Mica-schist Zone into Culm sedimentary basin.
