The Salento Peninsula (south-eastern Italy) is characterized by sedimentary rocks. The carbonatic nature of the rocks means they are affected by karst phenomena, forming such features as sinkholes, collapsed dolines and caverns, as a result of chemical ...

Fault rock evolution and fluid flow in sedimentary basins [PDF]
Structural studies have been undertaken in two extensional fault regimes associated with post-Caledonian basin-forming events in northern Scotland. A combination of detailed mapping and microstructural analysis has revealed the deformation processes and ...

Depositional environment of Jurassic deposits in the Binalud basin, according to the provenance and paleo-tectonic setting, northwest of Mashhad, Iran [PDF]
The thick Jurassic fluvial coarse-grained sediments rest non-conformably on older metamorphic rocks to the northwest of Mashhad. Two sections, 300 and 400 m thick, were measured and studied through the Jurassic deposits.

Types of fine-grained sedimentary rocks assemblage and its significance for shale oil exploration: A case study of the fifth member of Xujiahe Formation in western Sichuan Depression, Sichuan Basin [PDF]
Due to the complex lithology of fine-grained sedimentary rocks and the difficulty to determine the “sweet spot” of the fifth member of Xujiahe Formation(short for Xu-5 Member) of western Sichuan Depression, Sichuan Basin, a comprehensive geological ...

Study on sedimentary facies characteristics of Xujiahe Formation in Sichuan Basin [PDF]
Sedimentary facies is the summation of all primary sedimentary features in a sedimentary unit, which is the product of sedimentation in a specific environment. It emphasizes the material performance of sediment formation conditions, including mineralogy,
