Brachiopods of the Imtachan Formation in the Upper Permian of the Southern Verkhoyanie, Northeast Russia

Учёные записки Казанского университета: Серия Естественные науки, 2023
An extensive collection of fossil brachiopods, all assigned to the Wuchiapingian Stage, was recovered from the lower part of the Imtachan Formation along the Ustupnyi Creek (right tributary of the Setorym River) in the Southern Verkhoyanie.

Depositional Facies, Sequence Stratigraphy, and Diagenesis of Lower Cretaceous Carbonate Reservoir, Southern Iraq: Implications for Petroleum Exploration

Journal of Petroleum Geology, Volume 49, Issue 2, Page 312-345, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The Lower Cretaceous Yamama Formation of southern Iraq represents a key carbonate reservoir within Iraq and the Middle East, yet its complex depositional facies architecture and diagenetic alterations present challenges for predicting reservoir quality.

Multiple Twinning in Nacre and Aragonite

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 20, 9 March 2026.
Electron backscatter diffraction map of a cluster of geologic aragonite, exhibiting single, double, and triple twins. The whole cluster is approximately 2 cm wide. Colors indicate crystal orientations, so that pixels where the a‐, b‐, and c‐axis is perpendicular to the image plane are green, red, and blue, respectively.

New Zealand Geological Timescale 2025

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.
New Zealand Geological Timescale 2025 (NZGT 2025) is the first comprehensive update and revision of the New Zealand Geological Timescale in a decade. The criteria used to establish age ranges of New Zealand Stages within the NZGT have been reviewed, calibrated, and revised where required against the 2023/04 International Chronostratigraphic Chart and ...

UPPER SPATHIAN TO BITHYNIAN (LOWER TO MIDDLE TRIASSIC) BRACHIOPODS FROM NORTH DOBROGEA (ROMANIA)

Rivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2018
Brachiopods obtained from several Triassic localities in North Dobrogea, in Romania, are described. Upper Spathian and Aegean Hallstatt-type red limestones have been sampled in the Deşli Caira section, proposed as the GSSP for the base of the Anisian ...

Mechanisms of near‐normal sea water dolomitisation: Mesohaline‐reflux or syn‐depositional?

The Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.
This study investigates the dolomitisation of the Eocene Dammam Formation on the Arabian Plate using petrographic, mineralogical, geochemical and isotopic analyses. The findings reveal two distinct dolomite types, formed primarily through normal‐to‐mesohaline sea water dolomitisation, challenging previous models such as sabkha‐meteoric mixing.

Stratigraphic significance of Devonian brachiopods of the Urals

Литосфера, 2017
The article considers the history of the formation of the regional stratigraphic scale of the Devonian system of the Urals, historically developed on the basis of the study of benthic fauna (mainly brachiopods).

Sediment‐stressed reefs over the past 420 Myr

The Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.
In order to fully elucidate the relationship between siliciclastic sedimentation and reef development, there needs to be a significant step change in how we record ancient and recent reefs. Only through the collection of constrained quantitative data, we can progress beyond the largely conjectural associations postulated for many ancient reefal systems.

Carbonate sedimentology: An evolved discipline

The Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Although admired and examined since antiquity, carbonate sediment and rock research really began with Charles Darwin who, during a discovery phase, studied, documented and interpreted their nature in the mid‐19th century. The modern discipline, however, really began after World War II and evolved in two distinct phases.
