September 7, 2026, the Department of Earth and petroleum sciences at the Faculty of science at the University of Mosul discussed the master&#8217;s thesis tagged \u201d sedimentary model of Pliocene (middle \u2013 late Eocene) formation in selected sections of northern Iraq\u201d, which was submitted by researcher kulistan Shaukat Mustafa al-atrushi, in the presence of the Department&#8217;s rapporteur, Dr. Saddam Isa Mustafa.<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"320:152\">The aim of the study was to build a sedimentary model of the formation of plasticity, through the study of rocks, microfacies, mineralogy and metamorphic processes, in order to determine the depositional environment and its stages of development.<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"476:31\">The study included conducting field work<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"508:4\">that included<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"513:3\">the description<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"525:7\">of rock<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"517:7\">sections<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"533:4\">and<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"538:7\">sampling<\/span>, <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"556:76\">as well as the study of microscopic slides, XRD analysis, the study of microfacies and metamorphic processes.<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"642:7\">The results<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"636:5\">showed<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"659:8\">that the plaspi<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"653:5\">formation<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"668:4\">was

data-src-align=\"692:5\">restricted<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"702:139\">to an open lagoon Environment, with the predominance of the delamination process and the presence of a number of metamorphic processes that influenced the components of the formation.<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"845:49\">The study recommended additional studies of the lateral distribution<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"895:14\">of microfacies<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"910:135\">and metamorphic processes, with the adoption of more detailed geochemical and mineralogical analyses, in order to reach a more comprehensive understanding of the evolution of the formation of the plaspi and its sedimentary properties.<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"1049:220\">The discussion Committee was chaired by the experienced professor Dr. Ali Ismail Abdullah Mohammed, the membership of assistant professor Dr. Falah Abdul Mohammed Azzawi and the teacher Dr. Noor Talal Ismail Taha, and the membership and supervision of Professor Dr. Mohammed Ahmed Mohammed Amin al-Haj.<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"1273:3\">At<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"1282:135\">the end of the discussion, the committee commended the scientific effort exerted and the importance of the study in the field of sedimentary geology and the interpretation of the depositional environments of the formations of northern Iraq.<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"1421:8\">Our wishes<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"1430:83\">to the researcher and to all graduate
