· An examination of calcareous nannofossil assemblages, mineralogy, and geochemistry in the Taramsa Section was conducted to reconstruct environmental and climatic changes associated with the PETM interval.
view moreIn the Dababiya Quarry section, the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM) consists of a succession of five characteristic beds that can be traced throughout eastern Egypt. The base of these beds defines the Global boundary Stratotype Section and and Point (GSSP) of the Eocene. Previous studies of mineralogical and geochemical proxies …
view moreIn 2003 the International Commission for Stratigraphy (ICS) designated the Dababiya Quarry, located near the Dababiya village, Luxor, Egypt, as the Global Stratotype Section and Point (GSSP) for the Paleocene-Eocene (PE) boundary, which is …
view moreThe quarry at Dababiya is in the process of becoming the stratotype for the Paleocene/Eocene boundary, formally defined by a lithostratigraphic horizon-the base of a clay layer at 1.56m in subsection DBH in the midst of the quarry. Our objective in this paper is to document the geology of the Dababiya quarry of which a brief discussion was ...
view more· At our Dababiya section 25 m east of the GSSP cliff, these PEB defining characteristics are identified. Lithology and geochemistry are discussed in Khozyem et al. (2014 Khozyem et al. ( , 2015 ). ...
view more· This chapter sheds light on the climatic and paleoenvironmental changes recorded from the Egyptian sedimentary record, based on: biostratigraphy, sedimentology, and geochemistry.
view moreA detailed study of the Dababiya Quarry Beds has revealed distinct stratigraphic trends in both mineralogy and geochemistry, similar to those reported from Dababiya Quarry itself. In particular, the organic carbon isotope analysis has revealed a pronounced negative carbon isotope excursion of comparable magnitude to that recorded from Dababiya. …
view more· The Global Stratotype Section and Point for the Palaeocene/Eocene (P/E) boundary was defined at Dababiya Quarry (Egypt) at the base of the carbon isotope excursion (CIE).

view more· Although El Dababiya Quarry Member is represented at Al-Hasanah section, the P/E boundary is marked by the occurrence of a minor hiatus at the end of Paleocene. Moreover, at Al Thamad section, El Dababiya Quarry Member is partially represented.
