The Kapp Toscana Group is a geologic group in Svalbard and Jan Mayen in the Barents Sea, Norway.[1]

Description

The group dates back to the Late Triassic, and comprises the rock formations of Tschermakfjellet, De Geerdalen and Wilhelmøya.[2] The group is named from the headland of Kapp Toscana at the southern side of Van Keulenfjorden in Wedel Jarlsberg Land at Spitsbergen, Svalbard.[3] The thickness of the group varies from {{convert|8-500|m}} of deltaic shales with interbedded sandstones.[4]

The Kapp Toscana Group was initially defined as a formation,[5] but has later become a group.[6] The type section was taken from Kapp Toscana at Van Keulenfjorden, where the thickness of the unit was {{convert|200|m}}, while its two members Tschermakfjellet and De Geerdalen had type sections from Botneheia.[7]
