Molecular Palaeontology Prospects From Exceptionally Preserved Eocene Brackish‐Water Bivalve Batissa sitakaraensis (Venerida: Corbiculidae) From Hokkaido, Japan

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
This study reports the exceptional preservation of the Eocene freshwater bivalve Batissa sitakaraensis from Hokkaido, Japan. Multimodal analyses reveal that both the aragonitic shell mineralogy and the delicate organic periostracum retain their original structural and chemical characteristics after millions of years.

Similarity measure of sedimentary successions and its application in inverse stratigraphic modeling

Petroleum Science, 2017
This paper presents a unique and formal method of quantifying the similarity or distance between sedimentary facies successions from measured sections in outcrop or drilled wells and demonstrates its first application in inverse stratigraphic modeling. A

Seismic Sequence Stratigraphy Applied to Reservoir Recognition and Evolution on Marine Carbonatic Ramp—Macaé Group (Albian to Cenomanian) of Campos Basin

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
A classic oil producing interval of the Campos Basin—Macaé Group is revisited through seismic stratigraphic analysis, providing a stratigraphic framework, characteristic depositional and relative time positioning for several complex structural settings.

Storm Influenced Shelf Sedimentation - An Example from the Lower Triassic (Scythian) Siliciclastic and Carbonate Succession near Knin (Southern Croatia and Western Bosnia and Herzegovina)

Geologia Croatica, 2010
Scythian sedimentary rocks exposed at Strmica and Plavno near Knin represent storm-generated deposits in inner (Lower Scythian) and outer (Upper Scythian) shelf settings.

Mississippi Fan Sedimentary Facies, Composition, and Texture

, 1985
Eight different sedimentary facies recognized in the Mississippi Fan sediments drilled during DSDP Leg 96 are defined on the basis of lithology, sedimentary structures, composition, and texture.

A Reassessment of Petrochemistry of ~1.2 Ga Tonalitic Rocks of the Northern Tugela Terrane, Natal Metamorphic Belt, South Africa: Further Constraints on the Evolution of This Belt

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
Our petrochemical studies on ~1.2 Ga granitoids of the Natal Metamorphic Belt, South Africa, do not suggest any property similar to Phanerozoic‐style subduction‐related granitoids. Plot of Kotongweni Tonalite in Y versus Sr diagram (after Moyen 2011), note that most samples have Sr/Y < 50.

Characteristics of Gravity Flow Deposits in the Benin Basin (Benin) and Implications for Oil and Gas Exploration

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
This study reveals that the underexplored Benin Basin features a narrow shelf and steep slope, which promoted the development of multi‐phase, stacked channel‐lobe complexes. These gravity flow deposits, further enhanced by bottom current reworking, reveal a significant undiscovered Upper Cretaceous stratigraphic play with considerable petroleum ...

Facies and sequence stratigraphy of the tamet formation (middle eocene), eastern sirte basin, Libya [PDF]

, 1995
The middle Eocene Tamet Formation on the eastern side of the Sirte Basin, is largely shallow-marine carbonate platform-to-basin transition formed along passive margin.

Tectono‐Sedimentary Evolution of the Neogene İnegöl Basin (NW Anatolia): Constraints on Transtensional Basin Development at the Junction of the Western Anatolian Extensional Province and the North Anatolian Fault Zone

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
The study outlines the tectono‐sedimentary evolution of the İnegöl Basin in north‐western Anatolia. Basin formation was controlled by interacting extensional and strike‐slip fault systems linked to uplift of the Uludağ Massif. Terrestrial sedimentation from the Miocene to Pleistocene is reconstructed using abundant fossil mammal assemblages that ...
