- Title
Cephalopod limestone deposition on a shallow pelagic ridge: the Tafilalt Platform (upper Devonian, eastern Anti-Atlas, Morocco).
- Authors
Wendt, J.; Aigner, T.; Neugebauer, J.
- Abstract
Reports on the creation of a platform and basin topography along the northern margin of the Sahara Craton during the late Devonian, as a result of early Variscan tectonic movement and differential subsidence. Characterization of the platform deposits by highly reduced thicknesses, shallow subtidal to supratidal deposits in the late Frasnian and by unconformities at the Lower/Upper Frasnian and the Frasnian/Famennian boundaries.Diversity of cephalopod limestones deposited on the platform.
