Two texturally and mineralogically distinct types of Mississippi Valley-type mineralization are hosted by the upper Cambrian Metaline Formation in northeastern Washington. Josephine-type mineralization is iron poor and coarse grained, whereas Yellowhead-type mineralization is iron rich, fine grained, and commonly botryoidal. Josephine mineralization is found largely in the Josephine lithofacies...

Banded travertines are important parts of fissure ridge systems, but studies on geochemical characterization banded limited. This study investigated the lithofacies and stable carbon oxygen isotopic features from Xiagei (southwestern China) to examine their formation mechanisms. Petrographic analyses revealed two lithotypes: thick-laminated palisade crystalline crust thin-laminated composite cr...

The characteristics of paleosedimentary environments are great significance for the enrichment organic matter (OM) and hydrocarbons in lacustrine shale. This study analyzed mineralogy, well logging data, geochemical parameters (total carbon pyrolyzed hydrocarbon), inorganic (major trace elements), multiple proxies based on parameters. These were used to reconstruct environment lower 1st Member ...

Geostatistical data plays a vibrant role for surface-based reservoir modeling through outcrop analogues, which is used to understand three-dimensional (3D) variability of petrophysical properties. The main purpose this study improvise the 3D geo-modeling demonstrate characteristics and heterogeneities Sandakan reservoirs, NW Borneo. We point cloud from Light Detection Ranging (LiDAR) build high...

The stratigraphy and mineralogy of Balambo Formation (Aptian - Cenomanian) in exposed surface section near Chomabrok village the Imbrication zone, northeastern Iraq is studied. 450 meters thick consists thin to medium bedded yellowish-brown, black dark gray limestones, marly with thin- bedded, grayish marl shale, bands cherts abundant nodules lenses. From field observations petrographic studies...

The Taranaki Basin in New Zealand presents the most promising territory for strategies of hydrocarbon exploration and development. This basin contains multiple source rock levels its sedimentary successions formed during syn- post-rift periods. deepest rocks, found Rakopi Formation, were deposited deltaic to deep marine environments consist gas-prone coal organic-rich mudstone lithofacies. Howe...

An integrated study of sediments was conducted to examine the facies architecture and depositional environment Cretaceous Pab Formation, Rakhi Gorge, Suleiman Ranges, Pakistan. This research focused on analyzing architectural elements facies, which are not commonly studied in sedimentary basins To identify lithofacies, outcrop analysis section measurement were performed. The identified lithofac...

Deepwater lobes constitute a significant volume of submarine fans and are primarily believed to exhibit simple sheet geometry. However, recent studies interpret the geometries these deep-marine as distinct with respect complexity facies their distribution. Hence, conceptual model sediments is essential discuss associated fan lobe architecture. The present study highlights heterogeneity distribu...
