in this study, depositional environment and provenance of sandstones of the surijeh formation (lower cretaceous) in the abgarm section in the kopet-dagh basin are investigated. analysis of sedimentary facies in this section shows that there are two clastic (continental and coastal plain) and two carbonate (coastal plain) facies associations are present. the results of modal analysis and geochem...

   The study area is located in the northeast of Iran. Miankuhi Formation is 500m thick and comprises homogeneous shales, brown granular sandstone and siltstone. In this study, 45 samples were taken from Miankuhi shales and sandstones in order to determine their tectonic origin by using a polarizing microscope. Samples were analysed by X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) method to determine their chemical...

between the lower and upper cretaceous there were some diastrophic movements, belonging to the austrain phase. these movements, which can be traced in many parts of north and central iran, caused extensive precenomanian erosion. even in southwest iran a wide spread discontinuity is reported at the base of the kazhdumi formation, which is possibly related to these movements. in the kopet - dagh ...
