Abstract: A Conceptual Model For-Influenced Dolomites And Hydrocarbon Significance: Genetic And Spatiotemporal Frameworks

A fully-integrated model for texture genesis in ancient detrital carbonate deposits has been proposed. This model integrated conceptual frameworks for genetic and spatiotemporal aspects of textural relationships. These relationships represented manifestations of cummulative effects of physiogenic, biogenic and diagenetic processes, and respective spatiotemporal scales. Modelling these textural relationships as integrated genetic entities provided a powerful tool useful in understanding intrinsic controls, and feedback dynamics in fabric evolution. An understanding of these genetic linkages yielded data on the nature of paleobiological influences on evolution of many diagenetic textures, particularly on dolomites and associated hydrocarbon significance.
