Planktonic Foraminiferal Biostratigraphy of the Kometan Formation from Kurdistan Region, NE Iraq

Planktonic Foraminiferal Biostratigraphy of the Kometan Formation from Kurdistan Region, NE Iraq

The Kometan Formation is widely spread in northeastern Iraq and is mostly composed of deep marine carbonates, with a predominance of planktonic foraminiferal assemblages throughout its sequences. Two outcrop sections, Smaquli and Tabin, were chosen to study the biostratigraphy of the Kometa...
