Depositional environment and provenance analyses of the Zobing Formation (Upper Carboniferous-Lower Permian), Austria

Original language description

The deposits of the Upper Carboniferous to Lower Permian Zöbing Formation in Lower Austria have been studied by a widerange of sedimentological methods in several limited outcrops. Four facies associations were identified: (a) non-channelized finegrained deposits; (b) channelized sandstones, (c) non-channelized conglomerates, and (d) channelized conglomerates. Non-channelized fine-grained sediments are interpreted as deposits in shallow, semi-permanent pools on floodplains. Channelized sandstones are associated with fluvial processes and mostly represent crevasse channels cut into the floodplains. Channelized conglomerates originated from coarse-grained confined and hyperconcentrated flows. Non-channelized conglomerates are interpreted as sediments of alluvial fan and alluvial plain systems. A terminal fluvial system developed under a semi-arid to arid climatic regime is supposed to be the depositional environment of the Zöbing Formation.
