This study involves microfacies analysis of the Kometan Formation from northeastern Iraq supported by detailed petrographic investigation for the main components and diagenetic processes using a petrographic microscope, scanning electron microscope (SEM), and X-Ray diffraction (XRD). The techniques have revealed that the formation includes two microfacies; lime wackestone and lime packstone microfacies which in turn are subdivided into seven sub-microfacies, that were deposited in the quiet and deep marine environment. Planktonic foraminifera (keeled and globular chamber types) are dominant, along with oligostegina in addition to subordinate benthonic foraminifera and fine-grained bioclasts. Calcite forms the main mineralogical composition in euhedral (rhombohedral), microcrystals, star-shaped, and columnar crystals in addition to pyrite and glauconite. All components are embedded in the micritic groundmass. The main diagenetic processes affecting the studied rocks include; chemical compaction (stylolite formation), dissolution, recrystallization, and cementation.
