Abstract EN

This study focuses on identifying the relative age in rock sequence of the Ratga Formation (Swab Member), Iraqi Western Desert.

To achieve this goal, five samples are collected (mainly limestone) from the Keyhole KH7/7, at a depth between (119 – 130).

Nineteen species belonging to eleven genera of calcareous nannofossils are described.

The recorded assemblages identified from the stratigraphic succession of this formation confirm Early Eocene (Early Ypresian) age by the biozone Tribrachiatus contortus Interval Biozone CP9a.
