Lower Silurian ?hot shales? in Jordan: a new depositional model

Original language description

Data are presented from the Batra Formation (also known as the Mudawwara Shale Formation) of a core from well BG-14 in the Batna el Ghoul area, southern Jordan, which enable a new depositional model to be proposed for the middle Rhuddanian (lower Llandovery, Silurian) 'hot shale' which may be applicable to other Arabian and North African 'hot shales' of similar stratigraphical age. This 'hot shale' probably results from rapid early burial of organic carbon associated with a minor regression during whichanoxic bottom conditions were maintained for most, but not all, of the time. Depositional models such as that presented here rely on a robust biostratigraphical framework; in the Ordovician and Silurian of Arabia and North Africa, this can be provided by graptolites and chitinozoans.
