and Ainsa Basin – Northern Spain
Lawrence Kanyan
Cretaceous Limestones
Tertiary deposits
Tidal Environment Herringbone cross-beds – Tidal Environment
Flacer Bedding
Clay chips in a sst bed
Smaller ripples on a larger bed-form
Smaller ripples on a larger bed-form
bioturbation
Lenticular sst units
Thrust zone
Vertical beds over the thrust plane
Collades de Basturs carbonate platform (near the village of Can Borell)
Rudist
Rudists colony
Building blocks: lower delta plain
Oyesters – shallow marine, brackish waters – also rich in muddy facies
Indicating shallow waters
Mud – does not always indicate deep water – indicates low energy
Cross-laminae
Cross-bedded sequence – bidirectional? Tidal influence?
Erosional base- fining up – distributary channel
Fining up
Pebbly sands – fining up, some cross laminations
Motteled texture - rootlets
Braided river system - smileys
Tree trunk - peat
Trough cross bedding
Alluvial fan deposits
Syncline in distance – paleo valley
Bauma sequence – Ta and Tb
Ta
Tb
Turbidite elementary channels – part of a channel complex
Different channel complexes
Elementary channels form a channel complex
Rounded mud clasts Slope bypass
Hill in the background - thrusting
Smileys in slope deposits
Flute caste indicating flow direction N300 degrees
Folded –> slump deposits
Normal graded beds
Rip up clasts at base indicate a new
Cycle
Each cycles removes the previously
Deposited clasts
High density turbidity currents
Only Ta
seismites
Soft sediment deformation
Fluid escape structures
Imbricated mud clasts – indicate flow direction
Flow direction same as indicated by flute casts
Diplocraterion burrows
Last day
Carbonate turbidite unit – reverse graded
=> overturned beds
Fluvial Outcrop
Fluvial Outcrop
Thicker channel: more accommodation space – less lateral accretion
Pro-Delta mudstones?
Anticline??
Continental
Delta progrades
