THE N.A. GOLOVKINSKY’S FUNDAMENTAL FACIAL LAW — PROBLEMATICS AND NEW HORIZONS
Famous Russian geologist N.A. Golovkinsky published 150 years ago an important scientific work, where the phenomenon of lateral displacement (movement) of homogeneous lithological layers («slide» over time) was asserted.

Influencing Factors on Petrography Interpretations in Provenance Research—A Case-Study Review
The use of framework petrography is a common initial step in provenance research of sand and sandstone. The data tend to be interpreted based on the three main components quartz, feldspar, and lithic fragments.

Facies and sequence stratigraphic implications of the Statfjord formation (upper triassic-lower Jurassic), northern north sea, UK [PDF]
Detailed sedimentological logging of core, and interpretation of wireline logs from the Brent Oil Field, northern North Sea, have allowed for the identification of sedimentary facies and environments of the Upper Triassic-Lower Jurassic Statfjord ...

Carbonate facies, diagenesis and sequence stratigraphy of an eocene nummulitic seservoir interval (jdeir formation), offshore NW Libya [PDF]
This study investigates the sedimentology, petrology and depositional environments of a major Early Eocene nummulitic reservoir unit: the Jdeir Formation, from offshore NW Libya in the Mediterranean Sea. This formation is a prolific hydrocarbon-producing

SEDIMENTOLOGICAL STUDY OF THE HARTHA & SAADI FORMATIONS FROM SELECTED WELLS IN QAYARA OIL FIELD NORTHERN IRAQ [PDF]
The research included sedimentological study of Hartha and Saadi formations in Qayara oil fields: (QY53, QY84, QY82, QY54). The study indicates that the rocks of both formations are composed from limestone, dolomitic limestone, and dolomite which are ...
