Research reveals diverse carbonate and clastic facies in the Bahram Formation, indicating paleoenvironmental dynamics in the microcontinent.
Key Points
The Bahram Formation comprises nine distinct facies, including two clastic and seven carbonate types, indicating varied tidal and reef environments.
Analysis highlights a gradual increase in clastic sediment inputs towards the southern Central-East Iranian Microcontinent during the Middle-Late Devonian.
The mixed carbonate-clastic shallow marine system developed along a both homoclinal carbonate ramp and gradual shallowing trend in northern Kerman.
This study provides evidence for a unique sedimentary model contributing to understanding Devonian depositional systems on Gondwana's northern margin.
