Triassic Stratigraphy in the Zuni Mountains, West-central New Mexico
—The Triassic System in the Zuni Mountains consists of one Middle Triassic unit, the Moenkopi Formation, the Upper Triassic Chinle Group, and the Upper Triassic-Lower Jurassic(?) Wingate Sandstone. The Chinle Group in the Zuni Mountains consists of six formations, in ascending order: Zuni Mountains (named here; = “mottled strata” of previous workers), Shinarump, Bluewater Creek, Petrified Fores...
متن کاملStratigraphy of the Triassic Martin Bridge Formation, Wallowa terrane: Stratigraphy and depositional setting
The Upper Triassic (Carnian–Norian) Martin Bridge Formation of northeastern Oregon, southeastern Washington, and western Idaho is characterized by rapidly shifting depositional processes within a tropical volcanic island arc setting. Martin Bridge sequences in the Hells Canyon and northern Wallowa Mountains document shallow-water peritidal evaporitic sediments that are succeeded by deeper and p...
متن کاملStratigraphy, Sedimentology, and Sequence Stratigraphy of the Lower Triassic Sinbad Formation, San Rafael Swell, Utah
The Lower Triassic Sinbad Formation (Thaynes Group) in the San Rafael Swell of east-central Utah (11-18 m thick) represents the maximum flooding zone and at least part of the highstand systems tract of a 185+ m thick depositional sequence. The Sinbad Formation conformably overlies siliciclastic tidal flat, fluvial channel and carbonate peritidal deposits of the Black Dragon Formation, a transgr...
متن کاملPost-Triassic normal faulting and extensional structures in Central Alborz, Northern Iran
This paper presents structural evidence of extensional activity in Central Alborz during Mesozoic. The structural evidence of homogenous early stage stretching such as layer-parallel to oblique boudinage of Permian and Triassic rocks in various portions of the study area accompanied by extensional-fibrous fractures were followed with more advanced extensional features. These extensional structu...
متن کاملMiddle Devonian-Early Carboniferous Conodont Faunas from the Khoshyeilagh Formation, Alborz Mountains, North Iran
Conodonts of Khoshyeilagh Formation, the most complete section of Devonian rocks in the Alborz Mountains, northern Iran, has been studied, and subspecies of the genera Icriodus, Bipennatus, Polygnathus, Pelekysgnathus, Ancyrodella, Palmatolepis, Bispathodus, Scaphignathus, Clydagnathus, Gnathodus, Scaliognathus and Dollymae have been obtained from the studied section. The faunas indicate an Eif...
