- Abstract
Microspar Structure carbonate is a special carbonates that developed in Proterozoic. It is filled with uniform, equiaxial and polygonal microsparry calcite (or dolomite) crystals, 5-15μm individual in size, display sharpen lateral boundaries with hosting rocks. According to its origin, microspar structure can be divided into two categories: in-situ and allochthonous. In-situ Microspar Structure almost developed in micrite, calcisiltite, marl, mudstone. Allochthonous Microspar Structure in calcisiltite or calcirudite. Microspar structure based on its petrology features, occurrence identically constrained within middle-shallow gentle ramp and peritidal, particularly the bottom of shallowing- upward cycle in middle-shallow ramp, and storm-base in the ramp is the distal sea-floor limit of microspar formation. Microspar Structure carbonate, with global intention and restrictive quantum distribution range, are favor of aggrandizing accuracy of correlation in Proterozoic.
