The Orientation of Small Muddy Clasts in Turbidites: Paleocurrent Indicators on a Jurassic Carbonate Slope, Tunisia

SEPM Journal of Sedimentary Research, 1981
ABSTRACT Small (less than 1 cm) elongate mud rip-up clasts within carbonate turbidite sequences were used as paleocurrent indicators in a Jurassic carbonate-slope environment. These slope deposits are exposed on Djebel Bou Kornine in northern Tunisia. The clast lineations were proved to be consistently parallel to flute-cast directions and consistent ...

Quartz-Carbonate Veining and Deformation in Namurian Turbidite Sandstones of the Crackington Measures, North Cornwall

Geological Magazine, 1967
Turbidite sandstones interbedded with argillites are cut by veins composed of quartz and ankerite derived from host sandstones during successive phases of deformation.The existence of the oldest phase of deformation (F1) is established by the presence of its widespread vein system, which is folded by the F2 folds and cut by quartz veins of the later ...

Silurian Trace Fossils in Carbonate Turbidites from the Alexander Arc of Southeastern Alaska: ABSTRACT

AAPG Bulletin, 1990
Early to Late Silurian (Wenlock-Ludlow) body and trace fossils from the Heceta Formation are preserved in the oldest widespread carbonates in the Alexander terrane of southeastern Alaska. They represent the earliest shelly benthos to inhabit a diversity of marine environments and are important indicators of the early stages in benthic community ...

Increased Terrestrial Organic Carbon Input and Mineralization by Turbidites Deposition in the Kermadec Trench

Hadal trenches are hotspots for organic carbon (OC) turnover, yet controls on benthic mineralization in pelagic trenches remain poorly constrained. Here we investigate how episodic sediment transport links tectonics to carbon cycling in the oligotrophic Kermadec Trench.

Carbonate turbidite sequences deposited in rift‐basins of the Jurassic Tethys Ocean (eastern Alps, Switzerland)

Sedimentology, 1987
ABSTRACTSyn‐rift sediments in basins formed along the future southern continental margin of the Jurassic Tethys ocean, comprise, in the eastern Alps of Switzerland, up to 500 m thick carbonate turbidite sequences interbedded with bioturbated marls and limestones.

Extrabasinal and intrabasinal sources in siliciclastic-carbonate turbidite systems of the northern Apennines.

2003
Ancient basin plain turbidite systems may be characterized by a complex sedimentary fill made up of an alternation of compositionally different types of beds which reflect multiple sources with complex relationships to the basin. Spectacular examples of mixed siliciclastic/carbonate turbidite systems are represented by the Upper Cretaceous Helminthoid ...
