The invention provides a naming method for
salt lake mixed rock. The naming method comprises the following steps: carrying out rock division by using terrestrial clastic particles,
carbonate particles and miscellaneous bases; using 50% as a boundary to distinguish
siltstone and limestone; according to a sedimentary structure, the land-derived
debris particle component is divided into a stratified structure, a blocky structure, a deformed structure and a wave-formed staggered
bedding,
siltstone is taken as a basic name when the land-derived
debris particle component is larger than 50%, silty sand is taken as a basic name when the land-derived
debris particle component is 25%-50%, and silty sand is taken as a basic name when the land-derived debris particle component is 15%-25%; dividing the lithofacies by taking the component characteristics and sedimentary structure characteristics of the rock as a division basis according to the conditions of the
rock core and the slice;
salt lake lithofacies are divided into three major classes, namely
siltstone facies, granular limestone
facies and marlstone
facies, and are subdivided into ten lithofacies subclasses. The method provides a standardized new thought for lithofacies division in a
salt lake deposition
system, a standard reference is provided for lithofacies naming through
outcrop observation, and a lithofacies division standard is formulated according to the scheme according to the deposition structure, the component content and the like.
