biostratigraphy of devonian succession (bahram formation) in sardar section, north of kerman based on conodonts
Authors
abstract
biostratigraphy of bahram formation succession, with 359.8 meter thickness, in the sardar section (north of kerman, central iran) is done in this study. bahram formation is mostly composed of limestones (with a lesser amount of sandstones), and conformably overlies the top sandstone beds of the padeha formation. but, the upper boundary with the hutk formation (late tounaisian) is disconformable. conodont fauna, consisting of thirty-nine species and subspecies, are indicatives of late givetian to middle famennian age. biofacies analysis proves the shallow marine environments for this section similar to many other successions in the central iran and adjacent areas (such as himalaya and pamir).

In this study biostratigraphy of the Upper Cretaceous deposits (Gurpi Formation) in Sepidan section located in the Interior Fars basin (SW Iran) was studied. The Gurpi Formation in this section consists of 360 m lime shale, argillaceous limestone and shale laid continuously on the Ilam Formation and with a paraconformity under the Pabdeh Formation. Nine genera and 27 species of planktonic foram...

Cambrian sedimentary facies are exposed throughout north part of Kerman region. Trilobites’ faunas are the most common invertebrate fossils within the Cambrian strata. The section is made of 217 m of sandstone, shale, limestone and dolomite. In this study, 153 trilobite samples including seven species and genera were identified from the Dahu section 12 Km. east of Zarand. This trilobite’s assem...

This study is focused on the biostratigraphy, sedimentary environments, facies distribution, and sequence stratigraphy of the Coniacian–Santonian sediments of Tange-Bulfaris section. Five assemblage zones have been recognized by distribution of the foraminifera in the study area. Assemblage zone 1(Chara Ostracods zone) is Coniacian in age and occurs in the lower part of the succession. Assembl...

The Gurpi Formation with a thickness of 190 m at the Kouh-e sefid anticline is investigated with regard to the calcareous nannofossils. In this section, Gurpi Formation is mainly consists of shale, marls and argillaceous limestones. As a result of this study, 21 genera and 41 species of calcareous nannofossil have been recognized. Based on distribution of index species calcareous nannofossils...
