Through the interpretation of structural unconformities, calcutation of eroded thickness, correction of pataeo-water depth and compaction and compiration of the Earty Paleozoic structural maps, the Earty Paleozoic stope break bert (geomorphologic unit) of the Tarim Basin is subdivided into uptift area, subaqueous uptift area, rift slope break belt, flexure stope break bert (stope bert), depression area and deep basin area. Pataeogeomorphotogy of the Cambrian-Early Ordovician was approximately in EW trend within which three tectonic units inctuding the Tabei Pataeo-uptift, the northern Depressional Belt and the southern Pataeo-uptift developed respectivety and are grouped into two stope break systems namety as the Tabei Pataeo-uptift and the southern Pataeo-uptift. These tectonic units obviousty controt the deposition of isolated platform, open platform, restricted ptatform and deep basin. Influenced by extrusion in the Mid-Late Ordovician, the southern and northern subaqueous uptifts graduat[y etevated and then were eroded. Resuttant[y two slope break systems devetoped, namely as the northern and central Pataeo-uptifts which obviousty controtled the deposition of provenance area, isolated ptatform, mixed continental shelf, slope and basin facies. The intensive extrusion of the Mid-Late Ordovician reads to significant tectonic deformation of the Tarim Basin: large area of uplifting and erosion and development of EW trending anticline and syncline. Deposition of shore, tidal fiat, delta, shallow marine clastics and deep marine facies is obviously controlled by the Tabei, the southern and the Tadong Palaeo-uplifts. Slope break systems control development of stratigraphic unconformity and thus truncation and onlap unconformity zones become favorable areas in a palaeo-uplift and at a palaeo-slope belt for forming important unconformity traps; Whereas slope (slope break) belt along a palaeo-uplift margin is a geomorphologic unit where high-energy sedimentary facies widely develops, such as reef, oolitic sandy clastics or bioclastic limestone beach bar facies, thus litho-structural composite hydrocarbon accumulations usually develop when tectonic condition is suitable. In addition, large-scale palaeo-uplifts are the most favourable areas for hydrocarbon accumulation development.展开更多

Talchir sedimentary succession of the Raniganj Basin, Damodar Valley Coalfields, Peninsular India, bears ten facies types grouped under three facies associations, viz., the proglacial conglomerate-sandstone facies association (CS), the foreshore-shoreface conglomerate-sandstone-mudstone facies association (CSM) and the prodelta-shelf sandstone-mudstone facies association (SM). Overall facies architecture reflects initial ice-covered terrestrial subgiacial sedimentation, which was subsequently reworked and emplaced subaqueously in front of the ice-grounding line, and finally overlapped by storm-laid prodelta-shelf sediments. Repeated glacial advance-retreats with shifts in the position of the ice-grounding line during phases of climatic amelioration led to multiple deglaciation-related fining-up cycles. Decoupled ice sheet and floating icebergs contributed icerafted debris (IRD) to these sediments. Gradual retreat of the ice sheet, however, restricted the supply of IRD towards top of the succession. Overlap of wave-agitated shoreface-shelf sediments on the glaciogenic sediments indicates widespread marine transgression caused by glacier melting during ice-house to green-house climatic transition, and crustal downsagging related to giacioisostasy. Subsequently, complete disappearance of the ice sheet caused basinal exhumation along with crustal uplift due to isostatic rebound, leading to multiple horst-graben bounded basinal systems, which received post-Talchir coal-bearing Gondwana sediments.展开更多
