Спасибо :)
neutral Jack slep : No need for "stone" since chalk is a limestone; see comment about gaize

gaize - opoka

Gaize is a term used in Europe for a fine-grained micaceous and glauconitic sandstone occurring among Cretaceous rocks of France and Belgium. The term has been used little in America and comments indicate there is no need of it.

Opoka is a Polish term with no English equivalent.It is used for a rock differing from gaize in the absence of quartz grains and rarity of glauconite. The rock, of Cretaceous age, is calcareous, but hardened as a result of the presence of organic silica.

Vernadsky did not draw a distinction between gaize and opoka. The 3 volume Glossary of Geology (American Geological Institute) and its Russian translation give separate definitions for each.

In Russian texts гезы (the е is a "yo") will sometimes be used for gaize.

This is just for information. Personally, I've always used opoka, but that's just my choice.
