Abstract :

The Eocene deposits in western Binaloud structural zone consist alternations of shale, sandstone and conglomerate. Thickness of sediments in studied area (NW of Neyshabour) is 391 meters. Sediments indefinitely underlie the Cretaceous Sediments and conformably overlies the Neogene Red Beds, field investigations of 50 lithic samples and 40 microscopic analyses led to identification of one oligomictite conglomerate and calclitite petrofacies. Lithofacies analysis resulted in recognition of one coarse grain (Gem), four medium grain (Sp, Sh, SI, Sm), and one fine grain (Fm) lithofacies. Survey of structural, textural, fossil contents evidences, also history and setting tectonic in studied area indicate the sediments had deposited in deep marine environments and had influenced by turbidite currents.
