Abstract

For BIOSTRATIGRAPHY of the GURPI FORMATION, three sections of HALEGAN well, Kuh-e-Harm and Kuh-e- NAREH were selected and sampled in south Qir, Fars province. The formation is 152m thick in Kuh-e- HARM section, 124m in Kuh-e NAREH section and 128 m in well HALEGAN and is mainly containing argillaceous limestone with interbeds of limestone. In Kuh-e-Harm section and HALEGAN well the GURPI FORMATION unconformably overlies the Ilam formation and underlies the Pabdeh Formation. In Kuh-e- NAREH, the GURPI FORMATION conformably overlies Ilam Formation and unconformably underlies the Pabdeh Formation. A total of 108 samples were collected and studied from the three sections mentioned and 25 Species of planktonic foraminifera belonging to 10 genera and 3 species of benthic foraminifera were identified. On the basis of the planktonic foraminifera the age of the GURPI FORMATION was determined as Campanian to Maastrichtian in Kuh-e- HARM and HALEGAN well and Santonian to Maastrichtian in Kuh-e-Nareh. A few biozones differentiated here are comparable with global biozones of Caron 1985 and Wynd 1963. Based on the distribution of planktonic foraminifera 6 biozones are identified as follow:1.Globotruncanita elevate Partial Range Zone.2.Globotruncana ventricosa Interval Range Zone.3.Radotruncana calcarata Total Range Zone.4.Globotruncanella havanensis Partial Range Zone.5.Globotruncana aegyptica Interval Range Zone.6.Gansserina gansseri Interval Range Zone.In HALEGAN well Globotruncana falsostuarti zone instead of Globotruncanella havanensis Zone and Globotruncana aegyptiaca biozone was erected by the author. This zonation can be correlated with Globotruncanita elevate Total Range Zone and Globotruncanita stuarti- pseudotextullaria varians Assemblage Zone of Wynd, 1963.
