Classification of soft-sediment deformation in carbonates based on the Lower Cretaceous Vigla Formation, Kastos, Greece

The soft-sediment deformation structures and the siliceous concretion presence as indicators of the depositional processes during Middle Paleocene to Middle Eocene in the Apulian Platform Margins in Kefalonia Island, Greece

“…Soft-sediment deformation structures (SSDS) and siliceous concretions (SC) are common elements and have been studied in detail within the Cretaceous to Lower Miocene carbonates of the Ionian Basin (IB) and the Apulian Platform Margins (APM) in western Greece (Bourli et al 2020;. SSDS represent gravity-driven structures that took place in unconsolidated soft sediments, with the development of slumps or mass-transport deposits, where folds and faults were formed.…”

“…Thus, in case the pore fluid is mobilized, the factors causing the formation of the SSDS could also be enhanced abruptly and significantly. The most obvious gravity-driven structures in unconsolidated soft sediments are folds and faults recognized in slumps or mass-transport deposits (Bourli et al 2020), whereas the dominant structures in slumps may reflect the orientation of the palaeoslope in ancient settings (Alsop et al 2017(Alsop et al , 2019Alsop and Weinberger 2020;Collinson 1994;Debacker et al 2001;2009;Maltman 1984, Responsible Editor: Attila Ciner 1994a1998;Strachan and Alsop 2006;Waldron and Gagnon 2011;Woodcock 1976a, b;1979;Le Goff et al 2020). Additionally, the SSDS could be mass-transport deposits (MTDs) and represent a common feature on the slopes of the carbonate platforms (Le Goff et al 2020).…”

“…Πρόσφατες προσεγγίσεις (Bourli et al, 2019a(Bourli et al, , 2019b(Bourli et al, , 2020 (Zelilidis et al, 2003). Για την δημιουργία τους έχει προταθεί ένα περιβάλλον κύκλων εξάτμισης και πλήρωσης με νερό, σε ξηρό και θερμό περιβάλλον, τύπου Sabkha (Pomoni-Papaioannou, 1985, ενώ η δημιουργία των λατυποπαγών φαίνεται να οφείλεται από την διάλυση των εβαποριτών κατά την έκθεσή τους ύστερα από διαπυρικές κινήσεις (Pomoni-Papaioannou, 1980b;1985, Karakitsios andPomoni-Papaioannou, 1998).…”
