carboniferous corals of sardar formation, in zeludu stratigraphic section (in ozbak kuh mountains) was studied. after selected of 50 specimens of coral fossils, from first band of corals, 9 species belong to 5 genera from rugosa and tabulata corals with late serpukhovian age were identified. these corals are included following species: heritschioides pseudosolitarius, heritschioides vepres, her...

pb-zn deposits in the kurdistan region, northern iraq, have occurred mainly as a stratabound and open-space filling ore bodies. they are hosted by dolostone and dolomitic-limestone of platform carbonates. the ore deposits at the studied dure and lefan areas are respectively hosted by kurra chine (upper triassic) and bekhme (upper cretaceous) formations. pyrite, sphalerite and galena are the maj...

The Cenomanian–Turonian boundary (CTB) on the intra-Tethyan Adriatic Carbonate Platform (AdCP) is generally characterised by a transition between microbially laminated and/or bioclastic limestones to calcisphere-rich massive limestone with bioturbated intervals, organic-rich interbeds, firmgrounds, as well neptunian dikes, carbonate turbidites, tempestites and slumped structures. Compilation of...

New simplified tectonic models and depositional history of Late Cretaceous rocks are established in a part of Zagros Orogenic Belt that is located in the Northeastern Iraq. These rocks constutes the most important Cretaceous oil reservoir in the Middle East. The dependent tools are petrography, field study and the concept of drowning phases. This concept is relatively new and accurate in explan...

Carbonate-associated sulfate (CAS) is an important proxy for reconstructing marine sulfur cycling throughout Earth's history. In order to assess the impact of carbonate neomorphism on δ34SCAS data, a mineralogical-spatial transect from early diagenetic limestone into low-temperature hydrothermal dolostone was analyzed in middle Triassic Latemar platform interior, northern Italy. This study addr...
