Sedimento logical study of shiranish formation well DD-1 (N-Iraq)‎

الملخص EN

Shiranish formation has been divided into two microfacies units : 1- Marly biowacke stone facies 2- Biogenic pack stone facies These microfacies reflected marine deep shelf margin in the upper part of the formation, the lower part was deeper. 238 slides were investigated depending on Mineralogical, compositional and Biological processes, which reflect deep shelf margin at upper part of the formation, but at the lower part open sea environment. The age of the formation is estimated depending on the recognized biostratigraphic zone using the index fossils to be Upper- Middle Maestrichtian.
