Abstract

The provenance of the deep marine clastics of the Cingoz Formation, which were deposited contemporaneously during the Miocene as two small neighbouring submarine fans (western and eastern fans) in the northern part pf Basin, has been studied by: (1) thin section petrography; (2) the use of the ternary discriminant diagrams (Q-F-L, Qm-F-ss) of Dickinson et al. (1983); and (3) the use of discriminant function analysis (DFA) techniques.
