In the present study, 116 species belonging to 55 foraminifera genera were identified which were divided into two biozones, namely Charliella altineri- Paraglobivalvulina mira- Dagmarita chanackchiensis Assemblage zone (Dzhulfian in age) and Claraia aurita- Spirorbis phlyctaena Assemblage zone (Anisian in age).  Nine primary microfacies were identified in the upper Dalan Formation, while, 13 microfacies were detected in Kangan Formation, together with different sub-environments (sabkha, tidal flat, lagoon, submarine ridge, and open marine) which were found to be deposited in a shallow marine carbonate platform in­ the form of a homoclinal ramp. Based on microfacies changes, aggradational, progradational and  retrogradational  stacking patterns of deposits and by conformation with the Gama-ray log, these strata could be divided into a couple of  third-order sedimentary sequences for the upper Dalan Formation, as well as a couple of third-orders for the Kangan Formation, including two system tracts (TST and HST). On a global scale, the findings are comparable to the upper part of the Absaroka supersequence. %U http://www.gsjournal.ir/article_48293_1f78a4bed1e6944fce0ae47f23c046ba.pdf
