Burdigalian-Langhian foraminifera of the northwest High Zagros Thrust Belt, southwest Iran
Abstract The foraminiferal contents of the lower–middle Miocene succession exposed in three sections in north Nur Abad on the northwestern side of the High Zagros Thrust Belt were studied. Assemblages of larger foraminifera from these sections can be referred to Zone SBZ 25 (and the Miogypsina globu...
