 The public discussion took place for the master’s student (Saba Fadel Muhammad) Department of Geology- College of Science - University of Anbar on Wednesday, June 18, 2025, in Ibn Sina Hall. for his tagged thesis

" Lithostratigraphy and Microfacies of Lower- Middle Miocene Succession in Heet Area, Western Iraq"

The discussion committee consisted of:

University of Babylon - College of Science - President

Prof. Dr. Hamid Ali Ahmed

University of Anbar - College of Sciences - Member

Assist. Prof. Dr. Basim Fadhel Latif

Prof. Dr. Amer Saadi Saleh

 The aim of this study is analyzing the microfacies within the Euphrates and Fatha formations, classify the depositional environments, and identify sequence stratigraphy within the Lower to Middle Miocene. The findings revealed nine distinct types of microfacies, along with three lithofacies that characterized the Fatha Formation. Additionally, five different depositional environments were identified, as well as six fourth-order depositional cycles in the Euphrates Formation and two fourth-order cycles in the Fatha Formation. These results reflect the influence of sea-level changes on the formations and ancient environmental conditions.
