It is one of the famous and attractive geological sites in Egypt and deserves to be one of the protectorate areas. The Actaeonella-bearing limestone-marl member of Abu Roash formation in El-Hassana dome exhibits a contrasting dark tone relative to the encompassing white cliff forming limestone-dominated members. It consists of shale, marl and limestone that yield in some places Trochactaeon salomonis, Nerinea requieniana, Durania arnaudi and Millestroma nicholsoni. Facies hierarchy at El-Hassana includes: low-energy skeletal floatstone representing initial and start-up stage, rudist\/ sponge boundstone of the catch-up and colonization stage, and high-energy bioclastic grainstone representing a cease of mound growth and destructive stage via effective wave and current action. The abrupt development of middle to outer platform argillaceous carbonate facies with local rudist\/ sponge mounds of the Actaeonella-bearing limestone member above the inner platform shallower carbonate facies of the underlying \"limestone\" member may suggest a retrogradation accompanied with a deepening of the depositional accommodation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Badawy Hanan S.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3659814318\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783659814310\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e LAP Lambert Academic Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/28\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 52\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.12d","brand":"Badawy Hanan S.","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48588030050559,"sku":"9783659814310","price":25.81,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/rudist-coralline-sponge-gastropod-in-badawy-hanan-s-9783659814310","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
