Abstract
Subcrop, isochore and lithofacies maps and correlation charts are used to deduce the evolutionary history of the Tertiary depositional basin in the northeastern part of the Western Desert of Egypt. Paleoenvironmental conditions of sedimentation are interpreted from lithofacies variations. Structural contour maps and tectonic profiles demonstrate the structural pattern of the studied succession. Interpretation of the source-land problem is also attempted. The geologic history of the studied area is discussed on the basis of interpretation of paleorelief, paleotectonic basement relief and residual gravity profiles.
