Investigating microfacies and sedimentary environment of the Shahbazan Formation in the Lorestan Basin [PDF]
The Shahbazan Formation is dated to the middle to late Eocene age, after the Pyrenean orogenic phase. Following the progression of seawater, it was deposited in the Lorestan subzone and the folded Zagros basin. The lithology of this formation is composed

Microfacies and Sedimentary Environments of Gurpi and Pabdeh Formations in Southwest of Iran [PDF]
Problem statement: The Upper Cretaceous Gurpi and lower Tertiary Pabdeh formations as units of folded Zagros Zone were studied in three different regions (Tang-e-Abolhiat, Tang-e-Zanjiran and Maharloo) in Fars Province, Iran. Approach: Gurpi formation consisted of thin to medium sized layers of gray marl and marlstone interbedded with thin layers of ...

ROLE OF INHERITANCES IN SHAPING THE ZAGROS THRUST AND FOLD BELT [PDF]
The claim that a place has a unique geology is made often, and never incorrectly. The Zagros fold and thrust belt represents an exceptional example where different structural and stratigraphic inheritances co-exist along the same mountain range, playing ...
