Biomicrite. The biomicrite is rich in robust planktonic and benthonic foraminifera, moderately to poorly preserved and abundant calcispheres and pithonellids. Minor components are few small-sized ooliths and pellets. Planktonic foraminifera are commonly broken and/or infilled with silica, glauconite, kerogen, or amorphous organic matter. ...

Clan designation. As others before him, Folk proposed a classification for sandstones based on the relative abundances of quartz (Q), feldspars (F), and rock fragments (R). These are the main poles of the classification diagram. To define the clan name one must normalize the sum of abundances of quartz, feldspars and rock fragments to 100%.

The matrix is iron oxide-stained carbonate and clay ...Micrite is one of the most common carbonate rocks. Most of what people call " limestone" is largely or exclusively micrite. As with clay (shale) it is deposited in generally quiet water, and appears in any environment where those conditions exist. Often we associate quiet water with deep water, where waves and currents do not touch bottom.

Chalk, a soft biomicrite, was chosen because it is widely present in northern Europe and the North Sea, and thus, foundation designs for infrastructure projects in these regions require improved knowledge of the engineering properties of this material . This investigation incorporated the use of triaxial tests equipped with bender elements (BE).In his original classification Robert L. Folk defined three main components to limestones. These are allochems, comprising various grains and particles; micrite ( micr ocrystalline calc ite mud matrix); and sparite ( spar ry calc ite cement). The main allochems are bioclasts (‘bio-’, see below), pellets (‘pel-’), intraclasts (‘intra ...Folk extended this basic classification to include the percentages of micrite and spar cement (diagram below). The cut-off percentage between pure micrite and a micrite with allochems is 1%, 1-10% skeletal fragments is a fossiliferous micrite, 10-50% a sparse biomocrite, and >50% a packed biomicrite. Other qualifiers like pelloids and ooids use ...The rock is dominantly fine to very fine grained with some silt-size grains.

It is very rich in lithoclasts ( Fig. 3 : R), the biophase is not abundant and very little diversified, with in particular Crinoids and benthic Foraminifera (Alveolina, Lenticulina ( Fig. 3 : S)).Micrite is lime mud, carbonate of mud grade. Micrite as a component of carbonate rocks can occur as a matrix, as micrite envelopes around allochems or as peloids. The origin of micrites is still a problem in carbonate sedimentology due to the non-uniqueness of the processes generating it. [3] Micrite can be generated through multiple processes ...Biomicrite mud-mounds persisted into the latest Palaeozoic, but fenestrate bryozoan and crinoidal facies disappeared by the end of the Permian.
