Kostial; Košťálov


Diatreme, c. 400 m in diameter, which breaks through late Cretaceous rocks on the SW margin of the České Stredohoří Mountains. The central part of the diatreme is occupied by an intrusion of sodalite basanite, which is surrounded by an intrusion breccia containing abundant xenoliths of a range of rock types, including fenite, nepheline syenite and rare carbonatite (Kopecký et al. 1970, 1987).

Košťál (German Kostial), often also called Košťálov, is a hill visible from afar in the western part of the Bohemian Central Mountains above the town of Třebenice.

Due to its geological arrangement, where the less resistant breccia rock forms the foothills, while the firmer trachybasalt and basanite rocks form its upper part, a distinctive rocky peak has developed here, which distinguishes Košťál from most of the surrounding rounder cumulus hills. On its steep rocky slopes, it is possible to observe irregular, plate-like and columnar separation of the rock. The lower parts of the slopes are covered by boulder streams and screes, on which landslides occur.
