Abstract

The Middle to Late CAMBRIAN deposits have several outcrops in Kerman Province - CENTRAL IRAN. These deposits have been introduced as KUHBANAN FORMATION. This formation has a thickness of about 330 meters in east of ZARAND city and has been studied for tidal facies analysis. The KUHBANAN FORMATION is disconformably overlain with Ordo-Silurian clastic deposits and also the formation is disconformably underlain by the Top Quartzites of the Early CAMBRIAN Dahu Formation. Based on stratigraphic studies, the KUHBANAN FORMATION is devided into 4 members in ZARAND area. All deposits in members 1 and 3 and some deposits of member 4 were formed in tidal flats. Field and petrographic studies of the Kuhbanan TIDALITES led to recognization of carbonate, siliciclastic, and mixed carbonate-siliciclastic facies groups.Detailed facies analysis of the KUHBANAN FORMATION resulted in recognition of three sequences (3rd order cycles) equivalent to the second half of the Sauk Sequence. After a global sea-level rising in the Late Early CAMBRIAN and during the expanding of shallow seas, these deposits were formed on the northern margin of the Gondwana Super Continent in a rift basin as homoclinal RAMP facies.
