BIOSTRATIGRAPHY OF THE ANAH AND EUPHRATES FORMATIONS AT WADI BANAT AL-HASSAN (W. IRAQ)
The purpose of this study is to elucidate the microfacies and the biozones present in the studied rocks as well as to determine their environments or deposition. The study depends mainly on the benthonic foraminiferal assemblages identified from (27) rock thin sections made available from an outcrop at Wadi Banat Al-Hassan area in the Upper Euphrates Valley. X-Ray diffraction was also used to determine the type of carbonate minerals present in the studied rocks.
