Abstract

Introduction: GURPI FORMATION is one of the most known Formation which has a widespread Zagros, west to southwest of iran. The age of mentioned formation has been reported santoniana to Paleocene. In order to comprehensive stratigraphic and geographical idea about distribution of Gurpi sedments and its age, study of these sediments is unavoidable.Aim: in these research, microbiostigraphical study of the GURPI FORMATION based on FORAMINIFERA in Tang-e-Higoun situated in north of Dehdasht, Kohkilouyeh and Boyerahmad province were considered, and identified and investigated forminiferal species diversity for age determining of the examined sediments.Material and Method: The Gourpi Formation's in these studies section with a thick 253.5 m located at north part of Kuh-e-siah anticline. This formation disconfomably overlies the Sarvak Formation and underlies a purple shale of the Pabdeh Formation. The Gourpi Formation lithologically comprises marl and argillaceous limestone. The study of a total 102 sample, including 16 soft and 8 hard samples, 13 genera and 23 species planktonic FORAMINIFERA were identified.Conclusion: On the basis of stratigraphic distribution of index species, the age of the GURPI FORMATION in this stratigraphic section is Santonian to Maastrichtian, and biostratigraphically comparable with the planktonic FORAMINIFERAl biozonation by Caron. The biozons are as follow: 1- Dicarinella asymetrica Total Range Zone, 2- Globotruncanita elevata Partial Range Zone, 3- Globotruncana ventricosa Interval Range Zone, 4- Radotruncana calcarata Total Range Zone, 5-Globotruncanita stuarti Concurrent range zone 6- Globotruncanella citae Taxon Range Zone.
