The Downton Bone Bed is a Konzentrat-Lagerstätte deposit located in the Welsh Borderlands, United Kingdom. The Downton Bone Bed is late Silurian, considered to be P?ídolí in age, and occurs within the Platyschisma Shale Member of the Downton Castle Sandstone Formation. The bone bed is exposed at Weir Quarry (Herefordshire), which this study proposes should become established as the type locality for this stratigraphic horizon, due to the destruction of other localities and lack of access to other sites. As Weir Quarry is one of the last remaining exposures of this unit, the objective of this study is to qualitatively describe the sedimentology, ichnology, and invertebrate palaeontology of the bone bed, to enhance the regional understanding of the palaeogeography, depositional environments and depositional processes of the Welsh Borderlands during the late Silurian. Parasequence thickness and frequency, and sedimentary structures such as hummocky cross stratification, observed within the Downton Castle Sandstone Formation, have traditionally been explained to have formed by sea-level oscillations. These are interpreted to have formed entirely by nearshore to shoreface, shallow marine autogenic sedimentary processes, such as storm events (tempestites) and tidal scour. It is interpreted that formation of the Downton Bone Bed occurred as a by-product of these autogenic sedimentary processes, through winnowing and erosion during storm-driven scour and reworking. The low diversity ichno- and invertebrate fauna observed within the Downton Bone Bed is consistent with a nearshore depositional environment and is indicative of a stressed ecosystem due to fluctuating salinity and oxygen levels.  相似文献

The stratigraphy of the Pedwardine inlier of Precambrian (Longmyndian), Tremadoc, and what are now shown to be upper Llandovery rocks is described. The inlier is surrounded by Silurian rocks, including upper Llandovery (two very small areas), Wenlock, Ludlow and Přídolí (Red Downton Formation). The Ludlow rocks provide a distal record of the mass movement recorded more fully in the Wigmore Rolls area to the east. The Pedwardine area lies along the Church Stretton Fault Zone. Though ill-exposed, it shows evidence of the history of faulting, including thrusting. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

The base of the Clun Forest Formation at Clun, Shropshire, has previously been taken to correlate with the base of the Downton Castle Sandstone Formation (Přídolí Series, upper Silurian) on the basis of brachiopod, bivalve, gastropod and ostracod faunas. The detailed distribution of microfossils (acritarchs, chitinozoans, conodonts and ostracods) is documented at Nantyrhynau Quarry, Clun, Shropshire, to test this correlation. Three new species of chitinozoans, Eisenackitina clunensis, Eisenackitina kerria and Angochitina paucispinosa, are described from the quarry. Macrofossil and ostracod distributions suggest that the correlation is correct. However, a typical Ludlow acritarch flora is present throughout the section and suggests that the basal part of the Clun Forest Formation is Ludlow in age. The mixture of characteristic Ludlow and Přídolí microfossils at Nantyrhynau Quarry may be the result of differing environmental conditions between the Ludlow (shelf) and Clun (basinal) areas at this time. Alternatively, the strata exposed at Nantyrhynau Quarry may represent a period towards the end of the Ludlow Series when there are no strata represented in corresponding shelf sections due to non-deposition or erosion. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

The Leintwardine and Whitcliffe Beds of the Ludlow Series outcropping at Tites Point and near Newnham, Gloucestershire, are described and compared with similar beds exposed at May Hill. Data from the Brookend Borehole, 1 ½ miles (2.41 km) south of Tites Point, reveal that southward thickening affects all subdivisions of the Ludlow Series. The occurrence of the Ludlow Bone Bed in the Tites Point outcrop is also recorded.  相似文献

云南曲靖地区关底组的时代   总被引:2,自引:6,他引:2  
王成源 《地层学杂志》2001,25(2):125-127,T001
近年来 ,珊瑚工作者和层序地层工作者分别提出云南曲靖地区关底组下部或岳家山段应属文洛克统 (Wen-lock)。但在关底组岳家山段发现的 Ozarkodina crispa (Walliser) beta Morph.仍属 Ozarkodina crispa带 ,证明岳家山段仍属 L udlow世的晚期。 O.crispa可上延到 Pridoli世的早期。层序地层工作者将上易剥页岩归入早泥盆世是不可取的  相似文献

云南曲靖地区的关底组产出世界闻名的潇湘脊椎动物群(Xiaoxiang Vertebate Fauna),但其地层的划分对比和时代归属一直存有争议,特别是其下部地层的划分及时代归属争议最大。通过在曲靖城南以关底组下段地层为主的刘家冲剖面上开展详细的野外及室内地层古生物学研究工作,文章厘清了该剖面上的志留纪地层,并依据采自数个层位样品中丰富的鱼类微体化石材料探讨了关底组下部的地质时代。研究结果表明:刘家冲剖面上出露的志留纪地层根据岩性变化特征可划分为关底组Ⅰ段(岳家山段)、Ⅱ段(崇家湾段)和Ⅲ段(彩莲段);Ⅰ段的下部以浅黄色、浅黄绿色含砾粉砂质泥岩、钙质粉砂岩为主,未见化石,而上部以深灰色、灰黑色页岩为主,含少量腕足类Lingula sp.及双壳类;Ⅱ段则以灰绿色、暗紫红色页岩互层、并夹薄层状灰岩为主,从下往上灰岩夹层逐渐增多,含丰富的腕足类、海百合茎等无脊椎动物化石及鱼类微体化石;在关底组Ⅲ段地层中首次发现的鱼类微体化石多样性高,门类比较齐全,包括无颌类、盾皮鱼类、棘鱼类和硬骨鱼类四大早期脊椎动物类群,从鱼群组成面貌上看隶属于潇湘脊椎动物群扬子鱼类组合(Yangtze Fish Assemblage)。笔者主要依据对其中棘鱼类的全球对比分析研究,并在结合牙形类等无脊椎动物化石研究进展及新认识的基础上,深入探讨了关底组下部Ⅰ段及Ⅱ段的地质时代。关底组Ⅱ段的时代应为志留纪罗德洛世高斯特晚期(late Gorstian, Ludlow),关底组Ⅰ段含砾岩层之上、含盾皮鱼类“王氏鱼”(Wangolepis)的地层,则应归入罗德洛世高斯特早期(early Gorstian, Ludlow),而在该剖面上尚未发现鱼类化石的关底组Ⅰ段下部,目前还不能确定全部归入高斯特阶(Gorstian),有可能会下延到温洛克统(Wenlock)之中。文章中相关工作的开展,不仅为中国志留纪生物地层的精深研究提供了古鱼类学方面的可靠证据,而且为探讨早期脊椎动物演化提供了新的地质年代意见。  相似文献

The Aymestrey area displays changes in facies, faunas and thicknesses which can be related to its position on the shelf edge during later Silurian times. The Wenlock Limestone becomes an alternation of limestones and mudstones. The Lower and Middle Elton Beds, however, are substantially similar to their development at Ludlow. The Upper Elton Beds and the Bringewood Beds thin westwards within the area, probably due to non-deposition or erosion on a ridge at the hinge between shelf and basin. The most striking change is the rapid westward passage of the Aymestry Limestone facies of the Upper Bringewood Beds into siltstones, which are considered to be shallow-water deposits and not basinal. The Leintwardine Beds exhibit a westward thickening, and slumping is developed in the Lower Leintwardine Beds; the faunas relate more to the basin facies than to the shelf. The Whitcliffe Beds thicken markedly westwards but retain their shallow-water characteristics.  相似文献

山东东营凹陷渐新统东营组的天文地层研究   总被引:4,自引:2,他引:2  
选定东营凹陷牛38、郝科1和利1等3口井东营组进行天文地层研究。以牛38井沙河街组一段顶界31.8Ma作为东营组底界年龄,得到3口井各段的年龄平均值为:东二段底28.406Ma,东一段底25.385Ma和顶界24.467Ma。东营组底界(31.829Ma)大致相当于"中国区域地层表"提出的32Ma的渐新统底年龄,但是与"国际地层表"提出的渐新世鲁培尔阶底界(33.9Ma)相差1.9Myr。东三段底界、顶界的平均年龄分别为31.829Ma、28.406Ma大致可与中国的乌兰布拉格阶或国际的鲁培尔阶中上部相当;东二段底界至东一段顶界的平均年龄大致相当于塔本布鲁克阶或夏特阶。根据东营组岩石地层与天文地层研究认为,在三角洲沉积过程中,东营组各段界线是穿时的,如东三与东二段界线的年龄相差可达1.4Myr。根据偏心率理论曲线和小波分析,夏特阶底界(28.4Ma)附近的变化可能与偏心率100ka左右理论周期的特殊变化有关。  相似文献

The Murray Basin in southeastern Australia is a large, shallow, intracratonic basin filled with laterally extensive, undeformed, Cenozoic carbonate and terrigenous clastic sedimentary rocks that constitute regional and locally important groundwater aquifers. The marine Oligo‐Miocene strata distributed throughout the southwestern portion of the basin are here encompassed within the Murray Supergroup. The Murray Supergroup (formerly Murray Group) incorporates the marginal marine marl and clay of the Ettrick Formation, Winnambool Formation and Geera Clay in the western and northern portions of the Murray Basin in South Australia, in addition to the limestone that outcrops along the banks of the River Murray in nearly continuous section for 175 km. The stratigraphic nomenclature of these rocks is revised as follows. The boundary between the lower and upper members of the Mannum Formation is redefined and a new Swan Reach Dolomite Member is erected. The Finniss Clay is revised to Finniss Formation possessing three new members: the Cowirra Clay Member, Portee Carbonate Member and Woolpunda Marl Member. The ‘Morgan Limestone’ is raised to Morgan Group and contains three new formations: the Glenforslan Formation, Cadell Formation (with Murbko Marl Member and Overland Corner Clay Member) and Bryant Creek Formation. The Pata Formation is redefined and described. Type and reference sections are erected for each new and revised unit, and are lithostratigraphically correlated to illustrate their stratigraphic architecture.  相似文献

东濮凹陷北部古近系沙河街组特征   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1       下载免费PDF全文
从古生物、岩石、测井等方面综合探讨了东濮凹陷北部古近系沙河街组的特征及其划分与对比。沙四下亚段和沙二段以红色砂泥岩为主,沙四上、下亚段之间为一假整合面,沙二段底部存在一较大的沉积间断面;沙四上亚段、沙三段和沙一段为灰色砂泥(页)岩夹4套盐岩,其中,沙一段和沙三段中的稳定灰质泥页岩是东濮凹陷较好的区域地层对比标志层。沙四下亚段化石稀少;沙四上亚段地方性介形类开始发育,为Cyprinotus altilis组合;沙三段以介形类Huabeinia和Candona的大量出现为特征,介形类为Huabeinia chinensis组合、沟鞭藻类为Bohaidina-Parabohaidina组合;沙二段以轮藻的空前繁盛为特征,轮藻为Charites producta组合、介形类为Cyprinotus xiaozhuangensis组合;沙一段以腹足类极其丰富为特征,腹足类为Valvata(Cincinna)rehetaiensis组合、介形类为Phacocypris huiminensis组合。前人对东濮凹陷北部古近系沙河街组各段的划分所依据的标准相同,但在确定具体界线时分歧较大,尤其是沙三段与沙四段的分界线。虽然前人均是以Cyprinotus altilis组合的上限和Huabeinia属顶峰带的下限为依据进行划分的,但因以古生物为标准划分地层的精度有限,加之当时钻井地质资料较少和断层错综复杂等,致使同一研究者在东濮凹陷的不同地区所划分的界线也不统一。本文研究指出通过层序地层学及沉积相变规律等沉积学问题的详细研究是解决该问题的关键。  相似文献
