Abstract:

Exploration in the Bass Basin has mainly concentrated on the Eocene part of the Eastern View Coal Measures with the pre-Eocene stratigraphy hardly being tested. Structural mapping using a good quality Bureau of Mineral Resources regional seismic survey and infill industry seismic data, in conjunction with seismic stratigraphy and well data, has generated an understanding of the structure and stratigraphy of the pre- Eocene basin, which suggests that exploration potential exists in structural and stratigraphic leads of both Paleocene and Cretaceous age.The Paleocene structure is influenced by t

Abstract. The Rashrashiyah Formation of the Sirhan Basin in northern Saudi Arabia contains diverse assemblages of planktonic foraminifera. We examined the biostratigraphy, stratigraphic range and preservation of upper Eocene planktonic foraminifera. Assemblages are well-preserved and diverse, with 40 species and 11 genera. All samples are assigned to the Priabonian Globigerinatheka semiinvoluta Highest Occurrence Zone (E14), consistent with calcareous nannofossil biostratigraphy indicating Zone CNE17.

Abstract:

Abstract During the late Paleocene to early Eocene, clastic fluvial sediments and coals were deposited in northern high latitudes as part of the Margaret Formation at Stenkul Fiord (Ellesmere Island, Nunavut, Canada). Syn-sedimentary tectonic movements of the Eurekan deformation continuously affected these terrestrial sediments. Different volcanic ash layers occur, and unconformities subdivide the deposits into four sedimentary units. Rare vertebrate fossils indicate an early Eocene (Graybullian) age for the upper part of the Stenkul Fiord outcrop. Here, we present carbon isotope data of bulk

Stratigraphic significance of this genus is emphasized, because it appeared, flourished, and disappeared in the Eocene period.

AbstractA geochemical and biostratigraphic approach has been applied to investigate the spatial and stratigraphic variability of Palaeogene sandstones from key wells in Taranaki Basin, New Zealand. Chronostratigraphic control is predominantly based on miospore zonation, while differences in the composition of Paleocene and Eocene sandstones are supported by geochemical evidence. Stratigraphic changes are manifested by a significant decrease in Na2O across the New Zealand miospore PM3b/MH1 early Eocene zonal boundary, at approximately 53.5 Ma. The change in Na2O is associated with a decrease in

Abstract:

Faunal similarity among regions is often used as a means of identifying regions of endemism in fossil faunas. At least two large-scale taphonomic effects can affect apparent faunal similarity: stratigraphic and facies mismatching. In stratigraphic mismatching, an unconformity represents removal of most or all of a complete assemblage zone in one region, and the constituent taxa are mistakenly interpreted as having never inhabited that region. In facies mismatching, environmental differences between two regions (possibly unrecognized) cause the inference of a barrier that never existed. The two

Abstract Most events characterising stratigraphic boundaries span an interval of time. The boundaries are often diachronous and they may be affected by environmental conditions. Therefore, the only accurate way to define a boundary is to select a boundary stratotype which records as many paleontological, geophysical and geochemical events as possible. Conventional stratigraphic boundaries are commonly difficult to identify precisely outside the stratotype area. This is why it is necessary to use first and last appearances of diagnostic features which occur below and above the conventional boun

Abstract:

Paleogene deposits are the main reservoir of hydrocarbon resources in the Carpathians and creation of the modern stratigraphic scheme of these deposits is the basis for improving the efficiency of geological search works. The reliable stratification is a necessary precondition for the preparation of geological maps. Stratification of the Paleocene–Eocene sediments is provided by foraminifera, nannoplankton, dinocysts, radiolarians, sponge spicules, palynoflora. Planktonic foraminifera is the main stratigraphic group of the Paleogene fauna. In the predominantly non-calcareous flysch of the Pale

Twenty-three new, precise, Eocene UPb and 40Ar/39Ar age determinations for calc-alkaline volcanic rocks of the Ootsa Lake Group and associated intrusive rocks, widespread in the Nechako Plateau in central British Columbia, constrain the timing of the Eocene magmatism to 53.247.6 Ma, with a local duration of as little as 23 million years. The new dates show that magmatism in the study area is partly coeval with that responsible for the Babine Igneous Suite Newman Volcanic Suite (5350 Ma) to the north, and for the Endako Group (5145 Ma), which overlies the Ootsa Lake Group; however, local

Abstract. Somalina hottingeri, a new species with partially vacuolate lateral walls is described from the Middle Eocene of Oman. It is distinguished from the only previously recorded species with this wall structure (S. transitorius (Hottinger)) by having equatorial chambers that are relatively low throughout the test. On the basis of this character, it is suggested that S. hottingeri evolved from the Opertorbitolites douvillei Group (redefined here) and that it gave rise to the true somalines. S. transitorius is regarded as arising from O. latimarginalis (ex. O. latimarginalis Group, introduc

The poorer preservation of the Cretaceous shells may be associated with the composition of the accommodating rocks, probably represented by terrigenous and carbonate-terrigenous turbidites.

Yet, despite the paucity of data we observe a variety of sediments that cover the range from fluviatile to (at least) neritic marine deposits. Whilst fluvial deposits dominate the Western Rim (Penyu, Malay basins), the Southern Rim (Sarawak) is characterized by deposits of a narrow and rapidly deepening shelf, with fluviatile, shallow marine clastics and carbonates passing seawards to outer shelf and neritic de

The Uinta Formation [Fm.] contains a diverse assemblage of turtles from the Uintan North American Land Mammal Age. Whereas turtles are abundantly preserved in the Uinta Fm., A. pulchra has been reported only from a few specimens in the Uinta C Member.

The tectonic complexity to which the post-Cretaceous Cesar-Ranchería basin has been subjected has generated alterations in the evolution of its oil system, evidence of this is the lack of stratigraphic record in the Cesar sub-basin belonging to ages ranging from the Eocene to the Early Miocene. These units that are no longer present could have been deposited and eroded during this period of time, leaving their mark on the closest overlying units. Previously mentioned hypothesis oriented this research to study how the basin filling was in the time range from the Eocene to the early Miocene base
