Famennian conodonts from the Esteghlal Refractories Mine, Abadeh area, south-central Iran

WA Museum Records and Supplements | Updated 9 years ago

Abstract - Various limestone bodies in the Esteghlal Refractories Mine in the Abadeh area of south-central Iran have produced conodonts consistent with the early Famennian Early or Middle crepida zones demonstrating that none of the limestone bodies are dramatically allochthonous with respect to one another. The age of volcanics associated with the early Famennian, Carboniferous and Permian units remains problematic; they are thought to be Late Permian age.
