Three sections of Guri Member of Mishan Formation in the Bandar Abbas area are investigated for foraminifer biostratigraphy and lithostratigraphic correlation. The base of Guri Member conformably overlies Gachsaran and\or Razak Formation, the top overlain by marly member. Thirty four foraminifer species are identified and prove the age of Burdigalian for Guri Member in the Gery Sheikh and Anguran sections and Burdigalian – Langhan range in the Bāz section. Two assemblage zones are recognized based on distribution range of species. Correlation to other sections shows the eastward marine progression and age change from the Burdigalian in the west to Burdigalian – Langhian in the east of Bandar Abbas area. |
