| 4 | Composition,environment,and economic value of the Permian to Cretaceous coated grains from Zagros and the Persian Gulf显示文摘Ooid grainstone/packstone carbonate facies of the Dalan,Kangan,and Arab formations are the main hydrocarbon reservoirs in the Persian Gulf.Based on detailed petrographic and petrophysical analyses,sedimentological and mineralogical features of the Permian to Late Cretaceous carbonate and iron-rich coated grains from Zagros and the Persian Gulf were investigated.Frequent ooids in these formations indicate a high-energy environment and a wave-dominated shallow carbonate platform.Because of wide-spread Permian-Triassic epiric seas and long-lasting periods of arid and hot climate,Permian-Triassic carbonate ooids have more vertical and lateral distribution in comparison with Late Jurassic carbonate ooids.Dolomite,calcite,and anhydrite are the major minerals of carbonate ooid grains.Early Cretaceous iron-rich ooids have been deposited above a major Late Aptian disconformity during the highstand systems tract.Ooid ironstone bulk sample X-ray diffraction(XRD)analysis shows that goethite,siderite,fluorapatite,calcite,quartz,and pyrite are the major phases of ooid ironstone deposits.This layer of iron bearing ooids could have economic importance in its outcrops in the Zagros area.Late Cretaceous iron-rich coated grains(pisoid-oncoids)were deposited above the Sarvak exposure surface during the Late Cretaceous,long-lasting sea-level fall on the Arabian Plate.Boehmite,diaspore,hematite,and goethite are the main minerals of these kind of iron-rich deposits.Late Cretaceous karst-type bauxite deposits have also been reported from different sections of the Zagros area and have economic value for mining. | Mehrangiz Naderi-Khujin Vahid Tavakoli | 2023 | International Journal of Sediment Research2023，38，3： | 0 |
