Opis:
The Markov chain analysis was used to study on lithofacies sequences in alluvial fans enclosed in the main seam of the "Bełchatów" lignite deposit. Quantitative approach supported the qualitative results of sedimentological analysis - the origin of muds, clays and coaly clays as well as the presence of a barrier (peat bog) between the fans and the lake with carbonate deposition. It was found that ephemeral lakes located on the fan surface were favourable sites for development of peat bogs. Similarly, the same lakes evolving into the peat bogs were favourable environments for expansion of sand lobes of the fans. It was discovered that cyclicity in sediment succession was disturbed by erosion. The new model of lacustrine limestone deposition was proposed for the northwestern part of lake which borders the fans from the northwest.

Opis:
The Main Dolomite is one of the most prospective hydrocarbon reservoir formations in Poland. The goal was to determine the Main Dolomite zonation in selected part of carbonate platform sedimentation area and also to analyze the influence of cementation factor on water saturation by well logging and seismic data integration. Well logging interpretation quantitatively characterized petrophysical parameters. Seismic inversion presented the distribution of the parameters at vertical and horizontal scales. Basic statistical calculations of petrophysical parameters, 2D crossplots and seismic inversion were made. The central part of the Main Dolomite interval indicated the best reservoir properties. High porosity values and low P-wave velocity, low bulk density and low water saturation values were observed in the analyzed zone. Mudlogging confirmed the occurrence of gas. Determination of hydrocarbon saturation in carbonates is a challenge for well logging interpretation and geophysical interpretation. The cementation factor is one of the main coefficients in petrophysics which strongly affect water saturation. Adopting the wrong value of this parameter causes serious error in the coefficient of the water saturation value. In the paper, water saturation was modeled using the Borai equation and Shell formula. By using the computed water saturation and fluid substitution method theoretical velocities of P-waves and S-waves (also P-wave/S-wave velocity ratio) were calculated. Results of the comprehensive interpretation of logs are the basis for lithology determination but P-wave and S-wave velocity can also serve as a source information about lithology. In reservoir rocks VP/VS ratio may also work as a confirmation of gas saturation.

Opis:
Markov chain analysis was applied to studies of cyclic sedimentation in the Coal Complex of the Bełchatów mining field (part of the Bełchatów lignite deposit). The majority of ambiguous results of statistical testing that were caused by weak, statistically undetectable advantage of either cyclicity over environmental barriers or vice versa, could be explained if only the above-mentioned advantages appeared in the neighbourhood. Therefore, in order to enhance the credibility of statistical tests, a new approach is proposed here in that matrices of observed transition numbers from different boreholes should be added to increase statistical reliability if they originated in a homogeneous area. A second new approach, which consists of revealing statistically undetectable cyclicity of lithofacies alternations, is proposed as well. All data were derived from the mining data base in which differentiation between lithology and sedimentary environments was rather weak. For this reason, the methodological proposals are much more important than details of the sedimentation model in the present paper. Nevertheless, they did reveal some interesting phenomena which may prove important in the reconstruction of peat/lignite environmental conditions. First of all, the presence of cyclicity in the sedimentation model, i.e., cyclic alternation of channel and overbank deposits, represents a fluvial environment. It was also confirmed that the lacustrine subenvironment was cut off from a supply of clastic material by various types of mire barriers. Additionally, our analysis revealed new facts: (i) these barriers also existed between lakes in which either carbonate or clay sedimentation predominated; (ii) there was no barrier between rivers and lakes in which clay sedimentation predominated; (iii) barriers were less efficient in alluvial fan areas but were perfectly tight in regions of phytogenic or carbonate sedimentation; (iv) groundwater, rather than surface flow, was the main source of CaCO3 in lakes in which carbonate sedimentation predominated; (v) a lack of cyclic alternation between abandoned channels and pools with clayey sedimentation; (vi) strong evidence for autocyclic alternation of phytogenic subenvironments and lakes in which carbonate sedimentation predominated was found in almost all areas studied.

The aim of this article is the description of lithofacies characteristics of sediments forming the north-east part of the morainic upland edge zone in the vicinity of Piaski Pomorskie (west Pomerania). the paper undertake also an attempt to reconstruct paleogeographical conditions of the formation of moranic uppland edge. The diversification of glaciofluvial and fluvial processes during the phase of stagnation and recession of uppervistulian ice-sheet in the vicinity of Piaski Pomorskie (western Pomerania) led to the formation of a morainic upland edge distinctly marked in morphology The edge zone separates the undulating moraine plateau from a lower situated Dębnica River Valley. This area is mostly formed by fine-grained sands with occasional layers of a coarser fraction of gravel and coarse- and medium-grained sands. The observed type of low-angle cross-stratification and trough cross-stratification indicates the dominance of diversified energy depositional environment with considerable power of water as transporting medium. the research area was formed at the front of the ice-sheet, which receded from the nearby reach of the Pomeranian Phase of the weichselian glaciation.

Anhydrite is widespread in the Prypiać Trough in the form of beds and nodules in the Subsaliferous Terrigenous and Carbonate formations (Eifelian and Frasnian), the Lower Saliferous Formation (Frasnian), the Intersaliferous and Upper Saliferous formations (Famennian). It is also present in the Asselian and Sakmarian (Lower Permian) deposits of the trough. The anhydrite is grey, blue, pink and orange. It has massive and, more rarely, horizontal bedding, and a fine- and micro-crystalline structure. Gypsum extends widely across the Orša Depression, Žlobin and Latvijas Saddles and partly in the Belarusian Anteclise, where it lies within the Eifelian deposits. It is also found in the Frasnian strata of the North-Prypiać Shoulder. As a component of facial analogue of the Upper Saliferous Formation gypsum forms the Bryniou deposit in the west of the Prypiać Trough. This mineral is also observed in the Oversaliferous Formation (Famennian) and in the Asselian and Sakmarian strata of the trough. There are spar, saccharoidal, alabastrine and selenitic varieties of gypsum. A medium to coarse crystalline structure is typical. The gypsum is grey, pink, yellow or orange.

The Başkale Basin is located in the easternmost part of Türkiye, within a tectonically active area, and located at the intersection of Europe, Asia and the Middle East. In this study, the Dereiçi travertines, one of the most important products of neotectonism in the basin, were investigated sedimentologically, mineralogically and geochemically. To understand the neotectonic evolution of the travertine succession, the sequence was studied from bottom to top as regards morphology, lithofacies and U/Th dates. Crystalline crust, coated gas bubbles, shrub, paper-thin raft and palaeosol lithofacies have been detected in the Dereiçi travertines, which are morphologically of layer type, two ridge types and terrace type. The Dereiçi travertines commenced to precipitate at the intersection of the Işıklı and Ilıcak faults at 255.56 ±9.01 ka, and their deposition continues today. Travertine deposition paused twice between 198.31 ±18–143.07 ±1.5 ka and 96.73 ±8.34–61.59 ±5.4 ka, when palaeosol development took place. According to field and laboratory studies, the Dereiçi travertines developed under climate and tectonic control. The Işıklı and Ilıcak faults played active roles in the development of the travertines. As the travertine ages are linked to movement on both faults, the age of the Işıklı Fault should be 255.56 ±9.01 ka or earlier, and that of the Ilıcak Fault should be 143.07 ±1.5 ka or earlier.

Opis:
The Krosno Formation (Oligocene) in the Silesian Tectonic Unit of the E part of the Polish Outer Carpathians is represented by two lithofacies called the Besko (or Lesko) and the Otryt facies. Their mineral composition was analysed in the past at a broad regional scale (Schideler et al. 1975) and the depositional mechanism for each facies was interpreted on the basis of sedimentary features observed on the outcrop (Ślączka & Unrug 1972, Wendorff 1987). Each of the two lithofacies forms an individual complex of strata supplied from two different source areas by turbidity currents of different hydrodynamic characteristics (Wendorff 1981, 1987). Namely, the strata of the Besko/Lesko lithofacies were interpreted as deposits of normally diluted and gradually decelerating, SE-oriented turbidity currents originating from the Silesian Ridge in the NW. On the other hand, the Otryt lithofacies is represented by deposits of rapidly decelerating high-density turbidity currents running in the opposite direction and derived from the Maramures Massif in the SE (Ślączka & Unrug 1972). The scope of this reconnaissance study is to investigate under petrographic microscope grain size, grain orientation and mineral composition of selected samples of the two sandstone types described above. These features and their comparisons should reveal whether the differences in transport and deposition mechanisms between the two lithofacies, which were in the past interpreted on the basis of macroscopic observations, are reflected by the microscopically observable features. For this purpose, and considering the reconnaissance character of this work, vertical sections of two sandstone beds were sampled in the area of the Otryt Syncline (in the Bieszczady Mts.) where these two lithofacies complexes are present. For each bed, one sample represents its lowermost part and another uppermost part. Therefore the textural characteristics of each pair of samples document hydrodynamic variations between the initiation and the final stage of deposition of the sampled bed. This is because various transport and deposition mechanisms of sediment gravity flows, and their gradients, result in differences in grain size, grain size sorting and grain orientation within a bed. The diversity of mineral composition between Besko and Otryt lithofacies is very clearly recorded in the analysed thin sections, which remains in agreement with the data published earlier and reflects different mineral composition of the respective source areas (Ślączka & Unrug 1972, Shideler et. al. 1975). The sample of the Besko lithofacies sandstone is characterised by high textural and mineralogical maturity (well-rounded grains and high quartz content). The bottom sample is moderately well sorted (standard deviation 0.64) and the top sample is moderately sorted (standard deviation 0.95). Graphic mean grain size for the bottom sample is 3.20 (Bouma Tb interval), and for the top sample 3.76 (Bouma Tc interval; both values being expressed in phi scale units). Therefore the upper sample represents deposition from a more diluted current (of lower flow competence) than the bottom sample. Less good sorting in the finer grained upper sample reflects pronounced contrasts in grain-size between individual laminae of the current-ripple cross-laminated Tc interval. Both samples of the Otryt facies sandstone show relatively high content of unstable grains, therefore this rock has low mineralogical maturity. Except for solitary well-rounded coarse grains, the bulk of grains are poorly rounded, which documents low textural maturity. The bottom sample of the Otryt facies is richer in grains of coarse to very coarse metamorphic rock fragments and polycrystalline quartz than the top-of-bed sample. Texturally, both samples are poorly sorted. This is shown by very similar standard deviation values (bottom 1.18; top 1.12). The values of graphic mean grain size range from 1.68 (bottom) to 1.92 (top). Furthermore the grain-size distribution curve of the sample from the bed bottom is characterised by coarse-tail, whereas the upper sample distribution is devoid of coarse-tail. These values and their distributions imply grain-size sorting by a high-density turbidity current unable to separate the various grain-size classes present in the flow. In such flows only the coarsest fraction is present initially but the remaining spectrum of the grains remains unchanged throughout the depositional process (Shideler et. al. 1975). A comparison between the two sets of samples shows the influence of two different flow types expressed by notable differences in grain size and sorting. The Besko facies sandstone is finer grained due to having been deposited from a more diluted current of lower competence. Furthermore, the Besko facies sandstone must have been deposited from a gradually decelerating current whereas the Otryt facies sandstone was deposited rapidly by denser turbidity current in which grain-size sorting affected only the coarsest grains. As a consequence grain orientation parallel to the flow direction is more distinct in the Besko facies than in the Otryt facies sandstones.

Opis:
The development of basal Zechstein (Wuchiapingian) strata inSW Polandindicates the existence of a diversified relief inherited after the flooding of the pre-existing depression by the transgressing Zechstein sea. The deeper parts of the basin were the place of development of thin basinal Zechstein Limestone showing sedimentary condensation manifested by bored and encrusted grains and thick evaporites (mostly halite), and in shallow parts Zechstein Limestone reefs followed by thinner evaporite sequences (dominated by anhydrite) occur. The analysis of 3D seismic sections showed that instead of three conventionally recognized evaporite units of stratigraphic potential in the PZ1 cycle, five units occur (from the base to the top: Lower Anhydrite, Lower Oldest Halite, Middle Anhydrite, Upper Oldest Halite, Upper Anhydrite). In a particular place their number may vary from two (Lower Anhydrite at the base of the PZ1 cycle and Upper Anhydrite at the top of the PZ1 cycle) to five. There are two complexes of Lower Anhydrite occurring throughout the platform and basinal zones showing deepening-upward (transgressive) trend. The halite sedimentation in the deepest parts of salt basins began shortly after the deposition of the upper Lower Anhydrite complex while in the sulphate platform areas the sulphate deposition lasted still for a long time. The Lower Oldest Halite deposits occur in the depressions. Between the halite basins, anhydrite platforms occur, and the thickness of anhydrite platform deposits is smaller than it is observed in salt basins. The Upper Oldest Halite in turn is recorded above the anhydrite platform. The two halite units represent different phases of development of halite basins. The Lower Oldest Halite basins are related to the pre-Zechstein depressions, although in some cases their syndepositional subsidence was controlled by reactivation, during the deposition of basal Zechstein strata, of former faults. In turn, the Upper Oldest Halite basins used the accommodation space created due to anhydritization of the Lower Anhydrite deposits composed originally of selenitic gypsum. The 3D seismics evidences that the PZ1 evaporites inSW Polandhave been deposited in far more complex and dynamic system than it was assumed before.

The Cretaceous basin of the Lublin area belongs to the SE part of the Mid-Polish Trough and its NE border extending on the East European Craton. Our study is based on isopach maps of seven time intervals, from Neocomian to Early Maastrichtian. Several main lithofacies have been distinguished whose areal extents were plotted on thickness pattern maps. The isopach and lithofacies maps helped to delimit the basin depocenter, providing information on vertical motions of the basin basement and synsedimentary reactivation of older fault zones. The areal extents of the siliceous and chalk lithofacies have been shown to be controlled by the positions of discontinuity zones in the crystalline basement. Two stages of accelerated subsidence have been established: in Turonian and Early Maastrichtian times. Regional comparisons of accumulation rates and their accelerations during these time spans gave possibility to distinguish the roles of eustatic and tectonic factors in the process of augmenting the basin capacity. Some remarks concerning Early Maastrichtian timing of the inversion onset are also presented.

Opis:
In the Cambrian, the Lublin Basin was a shallow-water area, located on the western edge of the Baltica palaeocontinent. The Cambrian sedimentary sequence, forming the lower part of the sedimentary cover of the North European Platform, is lithologically diversified and reflects dynamic variation in depositional environment. This paper presents the distribution of palaeofacies and sedimentary environments in the early Lublin Basin, including changes in their lateral extent during its evolution in the Cambrian. In order to evaluate the facies architecture of the Lublin Basin, a sedimentological analysis was carried out. On the basis of the detailed logging of drill cores, lithofacies made up of conglomerates, sandstones, mudstones and heterolithic deposits were distinguished; 16 lower-rank sublithofacies were identified. Their specific assemblages are indicative of shelf-type lithofacies associations, i.e. (1) tidal flat with muddy, mixed and sandy tidal plain sublithofacies including subtidal channels; (2) barrier-lagoon; (3) shoreface with lower, middle and upper shoreface subassociations; and (4) offshore with upper and lower offshore subassociations, including sandy tidal ridges. During the early Cambrian, the lateral variability and environmental succession indicate a transgressive, long-term trend and the migration of a lagoonal environment across wide tidal plains and the shoreface up to an offshore environment. The Lublin Basin reached its greatest lateral extent and maximum depth in the upper lower Cambrian. Next, an opposite trend began and during the middle Cambrian a regression cycle is recorded in successive changes in sedimentary environments that reflect a progressive shallowing. Multiple changes in adjacent environments indicate repeated and cyclical, lower-rank ingressions.

Opis:
Ancient deltaic facies are difficult to differentiate from tidally influenced shallow-marine facies. The Wagad Sandstone Formation of the Wagad Highland (eastern Kachchh Basin) is typified by offshore and deltaic facies with sedimentary characteristics that represent different conditions of hydrodynamics and related depositional processes. The study area, the Adhoi Anticline, constitutes a ~154-m-thick, shale-dominated sequence with progressive upward intercalations of bioturbated micritic sandstone and quartz arenite. Two thick Astarte beds (sandy allochemic limestone), with an erosional base and gravel blanketing, illustrate tidal amplification and high-energy stochastic events such as storms. Sedimentological characteristics document three depositional facies: an offshore, shale-dominated sequence prograding to proximal prodeltaic micritic sandstone and quartz arenite with sandy allochemic limestones, further prograding to mouth bars and abandoned channel deposits. The Wagad Sandstone Formation displays depositional environmental conditions that are dissimilar from those of coeval deposits in Kachchh sub-basins as well as on regional and global scales. This is attributed to a reactivation of the Kachchh Mainland and South Wagad faults which resulted in detachment and uplift of the Wagad block which then experienced prograding deltaic conditions.

The detailed sedimentological study of the 150-m-thick Muschelkalk succession, deposited on a small (~200 by 80 km), morphologically diverse Upper Silesian carbonate platform during four major marine-transgressive pulses of the Tethys Ocean, enhanced the understanding of the depositional history, palaeogeography, and facies distribution. A total of thirty-five lithofacies types were identified, described and interpreted in terms of depositional settings. These different lithofacies represent various shallow-marine environments along the platform transect, from peritidal to offshore areas. The vertical and lateral organization of the lithofacies delineated was caused by the interplay of platform morphology, third-order eustasy and the long-term tectonic evolution of the area. Accordingly, the carbonate system studied is a good example of the influence of large-scale processes on the facies architecture of carbonate platforms. In general, all of the four Transgressive Systems Tracts are characterized by similarity in lithofacies composition and vertical succession and by minor lateral change, indicating only limited influence of the three large-scale factors mentioned on lithofacies development and distribution during transgressions. In contrast, each of the four associated Highstand Systems Tracts comprises an individual (unique) lithofacies assemblage displaying substantial regional and local variation, which indicates that the filling of accommodation space during highstands strongly depended on the extrinsic processes.

Opis:
AFore-Magura Unit is strongly tectonically-engaged tectonic unit of the Polish Outer Carpathians, sandwiched between Magura and Silesian nappes. Due to poor and sparse exposure of the Fore-Magura Unit, which is covered by the Magura Nappe, there has been no comprehensive interpretation of depositional systems of the Fore-Magura Basin (Eocene–Oligocene), a part of the Paratethys realm. Therefore, in order to broaden our knowledge about depositional conditions in this part of the Outer Carpathian basins, two turbidite sequences (Szczawa and Klęczany) were subjected to detailed lithofacies and sedimentological analysis. The 100 m thick Szczawa section is predominantly composed of thin and medium thick turbidite sandstones associated with co-genetic turbidite mudstones, which thickness greatly exceeds that of underlying sandstone. The latter ones show another peculiar features, like opposite palaeocurrent directions between base and top of a bed, mud-rich banded and heterolithic structures, and combined-flow bedforms, including small-scale hummocky-type structures. All those sedimentary features reflect deposition from mud-rich low-density turbidity currents enclosed within small confined basin, which prevent each flow from further down-current propagation, and eventually resulted in trapping (ponding) of the whole flow within confinement, a process associated with flow reflections and internal Kelvin-Helmholtz waves propagation (Siwek et al., 2023). This mini-basin can be situated on the southern flank of the Fore-Magura Basin, i.e., on the slope of the Fore-Magura Ridge (Siwek et al., 2023). The 170 m thick succession at Klęczany is composed of thick-bedded amalgamated sandstones, grading into sandstone-mudstone turbidite sequences. The former reflect deposition from high-density turbidity currents and hybrid flows, and are stacked into a few to over ten metres thick tabular lobes, and can be interpreted as lobe axis or distributary channel deposits. These lobes are often topped by socalled ‘bypass’ facies indicating the moment a lobe attained a critical thickness which prevented the accommodation of new deposit, thus heralding a feeder channel avulsion. The recurring process of lobe building and feeder channel avulsion resulted in compensational stacking of subsequent lobes (Piazza & Tinterri, 2020). The upper part of the Klęczany section reflects deposition from low-density turbidity currents and aggradation of turbidite beds into upward-thickening sequences resulting from lateral compensation and/ or forward progradation of subsequent lobes. Considered as a whole, the Klęczany succession is fining upward, and shows decrease of sand net-to-gross, accompanied by increase of more distal facies. Therefore, that depositional system can be situated within single submarine base-of-slope fan featured by retrogradational stacking pattern. Ponded turbidite beds, together with their whole inventory of sedimentary structures, are an evidence of the crucial influence of structural confinement on unrestricted flow propagation on the seafloor. The presence of structural confinement on the basin slope may have been associated with regional compression and tectonic activity of the Outer Carpathian basins. In the case of the Klęczany section, shortterm autocyclicity is manifested in compensational lobe stacking pattern and cyclic feeder channel avulsions. A longterm variability, probably covering the whole Fore-Magura realm, can be identified with one sequence stratigraphy cycle  – from forced regression resulting from sea-level falling stage to sea-level lowstand, reflected in the transition from amalgamated massive sandstones to sandstone-mudstone turbidite sequences (Catuneanu, 2006). Alternatively, the uplift-denudation cycle due to tectonic activation of source area (Mutti et al., 2003) can be considered as an explanation of retrogradational stacking pattern of the Klęczany Fan, with eustatic sea-level fall involved (Pszonka et al., 2023). To conclude, the regional and local changes of depositional conditions in deep-water basins can be related to tectonics, as well as to eustatic short- or long-term sea-level changes, or combination of both, and can give the readable rock record in sedimentary successions accumulated especially in synorogenic marginal basins (Pszonka et al., 2023). These include foreland-type Outer Carpathians basins during Oligocene times, which were located in the Central Paratethys isolated from the Tethys Ocean during Eocene-Oligocene geotectonic reconstruction of the Circum-Carpathian realm.
