The Palaeocene Lockhart Formation, a carbonate-rich succession abundant in Larger Benthic Foraminifera, represents a significant potential hydrocarbon reservoir extending throughout the Kohat, Potwar and Hazara basins of Pakistan. This study examines two stratigraphic sections of the Lockhart Formation in the Hazara Basin—Bagran and Karhaki—providing crucial insights into its biostratigraph…
Early Pliocene sedimentary deposits are exposed at the surface along the James and York Rivers, across southeastern Virginia. The Zanclean age (5.33–3.60 Ma) Sunken Meadow Member of the Yorktown Formation records a relatively large-scale marine transgression in the Salisbury Embayment. A total of 15 samples were collected from an outcrop near Spring Grove, VA, for grain-size analysis and to d…
This study investigates the depositional environments and soft sediment deformation within the Early Jurassic Ammonitico Rosso Formation in the External Ionian Basin (Western Greece), focusing on its biostratigraphy, sedimentology, and tectonic activity. This research provides new insights into the depositional environment of the Ammonitico Rosso Formation and its transitions with the underlyin…
