Examination of new expanded K/T boundary sections near Beloc, Haiti,
reveals deposition of a glass spherule-rich deposit (SRD) and two (PGE)
anomalies (one Ir-dominated and one Pd-dominated) during the early
Danian Parvularugoglobigerina eugubina Zone [Pla(l)]. The presence of
the Haiti SRD within the early Danian is interpreted as being due to
reworking. Ir is only slightly elevated within the SRD but forms an
anomaly at the top of the SRD extending into the overlying pelagic
limestones. It is unclear at present whether this Ir anomaly results
from mechanical reworking of an impact at the K/T boundary, or an
additional impact event in the early Danian. The second PGE anomaly
upsection is dominated by Pd and Pt and is more compatible with a
magmatic origin. This suggests a multi-event scenario consistent with
one (and possibly two) impact(s), followed by a PGE-enriched volcanic
event in the Caribbean.
