Abstract/Notes | AbstractThe stratigraphy of the Hawasina Complex is redefined and rationalized to conform with standard stratigraphical nomenclature. Previously proposed tectono-stratigraphical units are abandoned in favour of a system that relies on the lateral correlation of lithofacies between structural units. To this end, the Dibba, Dhera, Wahrah and Al Ayn Formations are incorporated into an expanded Hamrat Duru Group. This group is divided into five formations, the Zulla, Guweyza Sandstone, Guweyza Limestone, Sid'r and Nayid and spans Triassic to Mid Cretaceous (Cenomanian) time. It locally passes up into the syn-orogenic sediments of the Riyamah Member of the Muti Formation. The nomenclature of the deeper-water, chert-dominated formations is left unaltered. |
