The Bauxite of Cornet is a geological formation in Romania whose strata date back to the Early Cretaceous. Dinosaur remains are among the fossils that have been recovered from the formation.[1] It exists as karstic sediments infilling fissures and caves in limestone.
The formation was discovered in a former bauxite mine near Cornet and Oradea during a mine explosion in 1978 but the mine flooded in 1999 so further excavations of the formation are currently impossible.
