Microtextures on Quartz Grain Surfaces in the Beach Sediments of Southern Hodeidah, Red Sea Coast, Yemen

Abstract: Surface features of quartz grains on the Al-Haymah and Moushij beaches of the coastal area in the southern Red Sea of Yemen were analyzed by a scanning electron microscope (SEM) to deduce the provenance and depositional environment of sediments.
