Sedimentology Study Of Exposed Formations In Al-Assad Valley, Al-Baghdadi Area, Western Iraq
Abstract The presence of the Sheikh Alas Formation, the Shurau Formation, and the Euphrates Formation in the area of the current study. The inference of the Sheikh Alas Formation was from Nummlite fossils and planktonic Foraminifera fossils. The Euphrates Formation was deposited in a shallow marine...
