The iron oolitic deposits of the lower Devonian Yangmaba formation in the Longmenshan area, Sichuan Basin
2021, Marine and Petroleum GeologyCitation Excerpt :The Ce/Ce* and Eu/Eu* anomalies of other ironstone are both positive and negative anomalies. Ferruginous ooids or oolitic ironstones are interpreted to have been deposited in various sedimentary environments including fluvial (Ramanaidou et al., 2003) and lacustrine (Morris and Ramanaidou, 2007), deltaic (Van Houten and Arthur, 1989; Salehi et al., 2014), estuarine (Taylor et al., 2002), coastal (Siehl and Thein, 1989), shallow marine or shelf (Berner, 1981; Van Houten and Purucher, 1984; Young, 1989; Berendsen et al., 1992; Taylor et al., 2002; Salama et al., 2014), epeiric sea (Liao et al., 1993; Liu et al., 1990; Zhou et al., 2009; Zand-Moghadam, 2018); lagoon (Bayer, 1989; Liao et al., 1993; Liu et al., 1990; Salama et al., 2014); tidal flat (Salama et al., 2014); offshore (Collin et al., 2005; Salama et al., 2014; Rahiminejad and Zand-Moghadam, 2018); inner-ramp (Clement et al., 2020) and pedogenic environments (Mücke and Farshad, 2005). Given the debate over sedimentary environments of oolitic ironstones, the depositional environment analysis must be based on the facies associations, fossil assemblages, sedimentary structures, and compositions of oolitic ironstones (Rahiminejad and Zand-Moghadam, 2018).
Provenance, shallow to deep diagenesis, and chemical mass balance in supermature arenites and pelites, Ordovician Simpson Group, Oklahoma and Kansas, U.S.A.
2019, Sedimentary GeologyCitation Excerpt :The sediments are thickest (300–600 m) in the Southern Oklahoma Aulacogen (Hoffman et al., 1974; Suhm, 1997, 2016) and thin northward to 100 m or less onto the margins of the Transcontinental Arch (Berendsen and Speczik, 1991). Exposed Precambrian basement rocks of the Canadian Shield and the Transcontinental Arch and, possibly, Proterozoic and Cambrian sandstones were the sources of clastic detritus for the Simpson Group and St. Peter Sandstone (Dapples, 1955; Berendsen et al., 1992; Suhm, 1997, 2016; Dott, 2003; Pickell, 2012; Konstantinou et al., 2014). No evidence of erosion of exposed basement rocks in Oklahoma during deposition of Simpson rocks is indicated by Suhm (2016).
Synsedimentary formation of ooidal ironstone: An example from the Jurassic deposits of SE central Iran
2018, Ore Geology ReviewsCitation Excerpt :Thus, to these reasons and also regarding the historical distribution and relatively rare stratigraphic distribution of iron ooids, ooidal ironstones and iron ooids are of notable interest and are important in geology and basin analysis (Van Houten, 1992; Mutrux et al., 2008). It should be noted that in several studies (e.g., Berendsen et al., 1992; Aurell et al., 1994; Burkhalter, 1995; Reolid et al., 2008; Mahmudi Gharaie et al., 2009; Maghsoudloo Mahalli and Shafiei Bafti, 2016), ancient ferruginous ooidal grains in ironstones are described as ooids with concentric fabric or layer. In ancient and recent carbonate oolites, ooids with radial fabric are commonly present (Bathurst, 1968; Shearman et al., 1970) but have not been recorded from oolitic ironstones (Bhattacharyya and Kakimoto, 1982).
Sedimentary condensation
2016, Earth-Science ReviewsCitation Excerpt :Its occurrence in the Phanerozoic is mainly limited to epochs of globally warm conditions (Ordovician to Devonian, Jurassic to Eocene), whereas in colder periods it is virtually absent (Van Houten and Arthur, 1989). With regards to single deposits, a relationship between not only warm and humid climate conditions, but also to intensified magmatic and hydrothermal activity is often given, for example for oolitic ironstone of Callovian and Early Oxfordian age in central Europe (Rais et al., 2007), of Late Devonian age in the Ardenno-Rhenish Massif (Dreesen, 1989), and of Middle Ordovician age in deposits of the U.S.A. (Berendsen et al., 1992). Observations similar to oolitic ironstone can be made for carbonate hardgrounds.
