Petrophysical Properties and Microstructural Analysis of Faulted Heterolithic Packages: A Case Study from Miocene Turbidite Successions, Italy

Figure 1

The two-types of packages found at the key sites: (a) evenly distributed beds contain a relatively even distribution of interbedded clay layers (in black) throughout the package; (b) unevenly distributed beds contain a sparse or random arrangement of clay beds relative to the other lithofacies (e.g., siltstone, sandstone, conglomerates) present.
