Summary

Description
English: Schematic wackestone as seen in thin section under the petrographic microscope.

Type of carbonaceous rock according to the depositional texture:

  • Alloctonous carbonates - Original components not bound at the deposition time.
  • Less than 10% of components larger than sand size (> 2 mm)
  • Contains carbonate mud (micrite, silt/clay size <63 μm)
  • Fabric supported by carbonate mud (micrite, <63 μm)
  • 10% or more composed of 63 μm or greater grains

Legend:

  • Dotted background: micritic matrix.
  • Curved blue particles: bioclasts (indeterminate fossils, eg bivalve fragments).
  • Blue cones: bioclasts (eg fossils of gastropods)
  • Black spheroids: bioclasts (pellets).
Based on: Dunham (1962), Embry & Klovan (1971) and Lokier & Al Junaibi (2016) (for full references see below)
 
Español: Esquema de una caliza wackestone vista en lámina delgada al microscopio petrográfico.

Tipo de roca carbonática según la textura deposicional:

  • Carbonatos alóctonos - Componentes originales no unidos en el momento de la deposición.
  • Menos del 10% de los componentes mayores que el tamaño arena (>2 mm)
  • Contiene fango carbonático (micrita, tamaño limo/arcilla <63 μm)
  • Fábrica soportada por el fango carbonático (micrita, <63 μm)
  • 10% o más compuesto por granos de 63 μm o mayores

Leyenda:

  • Con trama de puntos: matriz micrítica.
  • Partículas azules curvas: bioclastos (fósiles indeterminados. P.ej. fragmentos de bivalvos).
  • Conos azules: bioclastos (fósiles de gasterópodos)
  • Esferoides negros: bioclastos (pellets).
