  In this research ,biostratigraphy,microfacies and paleoenvionment of the Asmari Formation in the fars provingce(Tang-e Abolhayat,Naura anticline, south-west of Firozabad,Khormuj anticline),High Zagros(Shoorom anticline), IZeh zone (Mokhtar anticline),Dezful Embayment(Tang-e Anbar sepid, Dill anticline, Khaviz anticline,Aghajari oil field ) and Lurstan province(Mamulan,Sepid-dasht,Dehluran and kabirkuh-Darreshahr0,were reviewed and revised for the comprehensive understanding of age and depositional environments. The Globigerina spp.-Turborotalia cerroazulensis-Hantkenina and Nummulites vascus-Nummulites fichteli assemblage zones (Rupelian) are present in Fars province. The dominated microfacies within the Asmari Formation of the Rupelian time are bioclast planktonic, nummulitidae lepidocyclinidae wackestone-packstone, of an outer and middle ramp depositional setting. The Archaias asmaricus-archaias hensoni-Miogypsinoides complanatus assemblage zone (Chattian)is present in Fars ,High zagros,Izeh and Dezful Embayment provinces. The dominated microfacies within the Asmari Formation of the Chattian time are bioclast perforate-imperforate foraminifera wackestone-packstone and mudstone, of an inner ramp depositional setting . The Miogypsina-Elphidium sp. 14-Peneroplis farsensis assemblage zone(Aquitanian) is present in High Zagros, Izeh ,Dezful Embayment and parts of the Fars and Lurestan provinces.The dominated microfacies within the Asmari Formation of the Aquitanian time are perforate-imperforate foraminifera bioclast wackestone –packstone,grainstone,and mudstone,of an inner ramp depositional setting. The Borelis melo curdica –Borelis melo melo assemblage zone (Burdigalian) is present in most areas. But it slightly occurs in fars province. The microfacies of the Asmari Formation during Burdigalian are similar to those of Aquitanian .In sepid-dasht and Tang-e Anbar Sepid sections due to presence Globigerina spp. Assemblage zone and planktonic forminifera wackestone-packstone facies, an outer ramp depositional setting is also suggested.

  In this disquisition, Oligocene (Rupelian-Chattian) microfacies and sedimentary environment of the Asmari Formation at the northwest of Deris village, located in interior Fars zone of the Zagros Basin have been interpreted. The coordinates of such section are N: 29o 41' 59'', E: 51 o 32' 26''. The Asmari Formation deposits in this section are divided into 5 lithological units and consist of 460 m thin, medium, thick and massive bedded, gray and cream to gray limestone, slightly dolomitic with nodular and marly interbedded. By study of hyaline benthic foraminifera genera and non-foraminifera, and also recognition of some properties such as skeletal ingredient associations and sedimentary textures of thin sections, 14 microfacies have been introduced for the Asmari Formation. Gradual perpendicular changes of these microfacies represent that settling the Asmari Formation deposits took place in a homoclinal rapm. This homoclinal ramp consists of middle ramp and inner ramp, that are separated by shoal environment. Middle ramp is recognized by presence and dominition hyaline benthic foraminifera, coralline red algae and echinoids. The most significant skeletal debris of inner ramp are porcelainous foraminifera. To compare the thickness, age and sedimentary environment, zonal correlation of the Asmari Formation done in Deris section with three other sections (Naura anticline, Dill anticline and Dehloran) in the Zagros Basin. This correlation represent that the age of the Asmari Formation gets younger to the deeper parts of the foreland basin of the Zagros. Manuscript profile

  In this study Surgah Formation at Maleh-Kuh and Sarkan section in south west of Khoram Abad have been studied based on bio-event models. Surgah Formation at Sarkan well no.1and Maleh-Kuh has 46 and 82-meter thickness respectively and was placed on the Sarvak Formation and under the Ilam Formation. In this study Surgah Formation were composed of shale, limy shale with glauconite and pyrite. In this section two Turonian-Coniacian and Coniacian-Santonian boundaries were recognized in Dicarinella concavata Interval Zone. Based of Heterohelix moremani and FODs Dicarinella concavata and Dicarinella primitiva were detected Turonian-Coniacian boundary. Finally based on LoDs Dicarinella primitiva and Marginotruncana marginata were distinguished Coniacian - Santonian boundary in this section. Manuscript profile

  After the Late Cretaceous and during the Paleogene, with the sea level rising, the Zagros sedimentary basin is covered with a progressive sea in which the Pabdeh Formation is deposited. The dual function of this formation as a source of oil and its reservoir capacity due to the diversity of lithology and its location between the two reservoirs Asmari and Bangistan, and the age of this formation is one of the issues that has attracted the attention of geologists. In order to study the stratigraphic and biostratigraphic rock of the Pabdeh Formation, the Jahangirabad section in the northwest of Zagros sedimentary basin has been selected and sampled. 320 samples were taken, of which 230 samples were prepared by washing method, and 90 samples were prepared by thin section method and examined. Based on studies conducted in the Jahangirabad section, 25 genera and 110 species have been identified, and based on the identified fossils, 27 biozones and 7 sub-biozones have been identified. Based on the identified biozones, the age of the Pabdeh Formation in the Jahangirabad Danian Early-Late Chattian section has been obtained. Pabdeh Formation deposits in the Jahangirabad section have a thickness of 676 m (beginning of purple shale to anhydrite Kalhor) which includes units of purple shale (2 parts), marl limestone with lower limestone, limestone, and marl limestone with limestone It is high. In this section, the lower boundary of the Pabdeh Formation is continuous with shales and marls of Gurpi Formation, and its upper boundary is with continuous limestone of Asmari Formation.

  Carbonate successions are considered archives for recording the palaeoclimatic proxies and so they are suitable for understanding climatic patterns and identifying the Milankovitch cycles and cycles’s impacts on sea-level changes during Phanerozoic. In the current study, the carbonate successions of the Ilam Formation (Santonian) and their spectral gamma-ray data were chosen to identify the cycles and influencing factors on the sedimentation in one of the oilfields in the Dezful Embayment, southwest of Zagros mountains. According to available evidence, all of Milankovitch cycles contributed to changes in climatic conditions simultaneously with development of the Ilam Formation, however, the long Eccentricity cycles were dominant and have played a greater role in this issue. The sedimentation rate was estimated at 4-5.5 cm/kyr on average in the Ilam Formation. Considering the sedimentation rate and number of identified long Eccentricity cycles, it could be said the deposition in the Ilam Formation lasted in 1.13-1.8 Ma. Our results indicate that the relative sea-level changes in the studied wells correspond to the eustatic sea level. The deposition process in the Ilam Formation was largely affected by the performance of long Eccentricity cycles, eustatic sea level, and tectonic events during the Upper Cretaceous.

  Zagros Sedimentary basin is located in the south and southwest of Iran and Pabdeh Formation is one of the most important Cenozoic units of Zagros Sedimentary basin. In addition, Pabdeh Formation is of special importance as one of the source rocks of Zagros Sedimentary basin. In order to study the Lithostratigraphic and Biostratigraphic rocks of Pabdeh Formation, the section of Ilam dam in the northwest of Zagros sedimentary basin has been selected and sampled. 360 samples were taken, of which 260 washing samples and 100 thin section samples were prepared. Based on the studies performed on these samples, 25 genera and 105 species have been identified in the Ilam dam section. 26 biozones and 2 sub-biozones have been identified based on the biological zoning of Wade et al., 2011 in the Tethys area. Based on the identified biozones, the age of Pabdeh Formation in the Ilam dam section, Middle Danian-Early Aquitanian has been obtained. The deposits of Pabdeh Formation in the section of Ilam dam have a thickness of 764 m (beginning of Pabdeh to the beginning of Kalhor anhydrite) which includes purple shale units (2 Units), marl limestone with lower limestone, cherti limestone, marl limestone with upper limestone. The lower boundary of Pabdeh Formation in this section is conform and continuous with shales and marls of Gurpi Formation but its upper boundary with the gypsums of the Asmari formation is most likely accompanied by a disconform.
