چکیده مقاله:

Abderaz Formation is one of the Upper Cretaceous formations in the Kopet-Dagh sedimentary basin. A stratigraphic section from the mentioned formation is selected for detailed systematic description with regard to echinoids. Numerous well preserved representatives of the families Mircrasteridae wright, 1857 and Echinocorythidae Lambert, 1920 are described from the Ghaleh-Zoo stratigraphic section in the Kopet-Dagh sedimentary basin, northwest of Shirvan township (NE Iran). The age of the fossil assemblage is determined as Turonian-Santonian based on four echinoid species: Micraster (Micraster) coranguinum Leske, 1778, Micraster (Micraster) cortestudinarium (Goldfuss, 1829), Echinocorys gravesi (Agassiz & Desor, 1847) and Echinocorys ex gr. scutata Leske, 1778.

Source and diagenesis of Middle Jurassic marine mudstones, Kopet-Dagh Basin, NE Iran

Middle Jurassic fluvio-deltaic and turbiditic mudstones of the Kashafrud Formation, are important hydrocarbon sources in the gas-rich Kopet-Dagh Basin, northeast Iran. Clay mineral assemblages are important for interpretation of sediment provenance and for understanding burial diagenetic cementation in sandstones. The clay mineral assemblages in mudrocks in two areas, Saleh-Abad and Senjedak, w...

Porosity evolution and diagenetic history of the upper Jurassic Mozduran Formation, eastern Kopet-Dagh Basin, NE Iran

The Upper Jurassic carbonates of the eastern part of the Kopet-Dagh Basin, with thickness of 470 m, are the major gas-bearing reservoir in NE Iran. The objectives of this study are recognition of diagenetic history and estimation of porosity related to dolomitization. Based on field and laboratory study, four carbonate facies associations have been identified at the Mazdavand outcrop. Most of t...

A stratigraphic section from the Tirgan Formation was selected in Arkan village nearby Bojnourd city in order to study echinoderm fauna systematically. Many specimens of echinoderms, especially toxasteridae which is associated with brachiopods were collected and studied systematically in this paper. Microscopie slides were also prepared and studied. All slides contain benthic foraminifers and c...
