Article Reference The lithostratigraphy of the Lower Devonian formations of the Eisleck (Northern Luxembourg). Comparison with their Belgian lateral equivalents.
The Eisleck region forms the northern third of the territory of the Grand-Duchy of Luxembourg and also represents the southeastern part of the Ardennes. The underground is made up of detrital rocks (shales and sandstones) of lower Devonian age folded during the Variscan orogeny. They have undergone strong diagenesis reaching up to weak metamorphism. In order to allow modern geological mapping of this area, a lithostratigraphical framework is proposed. Seven formations are considered and their lithological characteristics, thicknesses and paleogeographical settings are described. References to their paleontological content are also mentioned. Comparisons with their Belgian lateral equivalents are drawn in order to facilitate the cross-border comprehension of geological maps.

Article Reference The Macquenoise sandstone (Devonian – Lochkovian), a suitable raw material for ancient querns and millstones: quarries, properties, manufacture and distribution in France and Belgium
ABSTRACT. For some years, a French-Belgian team of archaeologists and geologists is investigating the provenance of ancient quern-stones and millstones. Their study revealed the frequent occurrence of particular coarse sandstones derived from Lower Devonian strata in the Ardenne region, known as either the “Arkose of Haybes” by geologists or the “Arkose of Macquenoise” by archaeologists. Material for Late Iron Age and Roman quern-stones and millstones was quarried from open pits located west of the border between France and Belgium, between the Belgian village of Macquenoise (Commune of Momignies, Province of Hainaut) and the French town of Hirson (Aisne Department, Hauts-de-France region). This paper describes the raw materials, presents the different types of grindstones produced through historical times and provides a detailed diffusion map of the millstones. KEYWORDS: arkose, Lochkovian, milling stone, Gallo-Roman quarry, distribution area, geoheritage.
