Book Synopsis Carbonate Mud-Mounds by : C. L. V. Monty
Download or read book Carbonate Mud-Mounds written by C. L. V. Monty. This book was released on 2009-04-13. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book to investigate the structure, origin and evolution of carbonate mud-mounds. Mud-mounds are accumulations of biogenic carbonate sediment that are common in the geological record, and economically important as they host lead zinc mineralization and oil and gas. The book reviews, for the first time, the different mechanisms of mud-mound formation and examines in detail the major changes in mud-mound type and occurrence through geological time. The major part of the book contains case studies of mud-mounds from the Palaeozoic, Mesozoic and Cenozoic. The coverage is global and truly international, with 32 authors from 10 countries. The first volume to deal with the structure, formation and evolution of mud-mounds. Copiously illustrated, with nine colour plates.

Book Synopsis Mud and Mudstones by : Samer Ghadeer
Download or read book Mud and Mudstones written by Samer Ghadeer. This book was released on 2012. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lithofacies variability in fine-grained sedimentary successions is poorly known relative to that present in other sedimentary strata. In most existing models, researchers have argued that the mechanisms that underpin facies variability are produced by a combination of detrital inputs to the basin, primary production in the water column and diagenesis once the grains have been produced. In order to investigate the validity of these models, a fine-grained, mudstone succession (Cleveland Basin) exposed on the Yorkshire Coast of NE England has been investigated using a combination of field, optical, electron optical, and geochemical methods. Analyses reveal that there is a great deal of cryptic lithofacies variability preserved on
