Abstract
The studied Miocene sandstone and shale rocks are belonging to El-Ranga Formation.Petrographically, the sampled sandstone is classified as sublitharenite with evidence on variable transportation distances and derivation from sedimentary, igneous and/or metamorphic rocks.The iron oxides appear as the dominant cementation while quartz is the main matrix material in this sandstone.On the other hand, ...
