		To the east, the depression was bordered by a sill, on which anoxic and oxic facies fluctuated according to sea level changes (Figure 3); however, little information is available on a possible eastern extension.
		As a consequence of the aggradation of the former Radiolarite Trough to the Arabian Platform, during the Campanian, direct access of the Arabian Platform to the South Tethys ceased, and a thick sequence of flysch, containing radiolarite debris for the large part, accumulated in front of the newly emergent area, which was actively eroded.
		In Lurestan, the Kazhdumi is not a source rock anymore and the Pabdeh is not mature, moreover, the Asmari reservoir is breached, and the Sarvak has almost everywhere a tight basinal facies.

	Cretaceous Sedimentation Patterns in the Zagros of SW Iran - a Geomodel (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		This time framework allowed to unravel the complex Cretaceous history which is characterised by the alternation of carbonate platforms and intrashelf basins, periods of siliciclastic influx, shifting depocenters, and major basin re-organisation.
		Extensive sedimentological work on the excellent outcrops of the Cretaceous rocks in the Zagros Mountains in SW Iran, in combination with biostratigraphic work on ammonites, pelagic foraminifera and Orbitolinids, and C and O isotope curves, have led to the definition of 15 3rd order sequence boundaries and corresponding flooding surfacesin an area of 30.000 km2.
		A general subdivision of the Cretaceous succession in 4 stages is proposed, each of them characterised by a specific 1) ecosystem of carbonate producing organisms, 2) architecture of the carbonate systems, 3) tectonic context, and 4) palaeogeography.
