The depositional environments of the Pyung-Ahn Group sedimentary rocks, Jeongseon-Kun, Kangweondo, Korea are investigated. The environments are understood to be characteristic transitional from a typical shallow marine to a typical continental environment. Such transitional conditions are also understood in various parts of Quaternary and modern environment on the earth. In particular, the absence of detrital feldspar sand grains in the Manhang and Keumcheon Formation Sandstone body is described firstly in Korea, and the fact and possible mechanism are discussed.

Mineralogical and chemical examinations were performed on interstratified illite-smectite (I-S) minerals that occur in the mudstones from a petroleum exploration well in the Tertiary marine basin, Japan. X-ray diffraction analysis shows that component layers of illite in the interstratified I-S increase with increasing burial depth while those of smectie decrease. In addition, the randomly (R=0) interstratified illite-smectite is changed into Rp1 ordered I-S at a depth of about 4,000 m, which corresponds to the result of organic analysis and indicates a burial temperature of about $100^{\circ}C$. However, the present geothermal gradient shows that the conversion of the random I-S to R=0 ordered I-S is likely to occur at 3,000 m. This discrepancy may be interpreted by the reverse fault at 2,500 m which resulted in a deeper burial of sediments up to 1,000 m. Chemical analysis also shows the compositional variation in I-S with increasing depth: a decrease in Si and an increases in Al and K, indicating that the substitution of Al for Si in tetrahedral sheets is compensated by the addition of K to interlayers. K may be derived from K-feldspar and micas, which is present in the mudstones.

Late Quaternary stratigraphy and sedimentary environmental changes were studied based on four core sediments and their pore water taken from the southwestern part of the East Sea. The results of tephrostratigraphy and radiocarbon dates indicate that the cores cover the time interval from the middle stage of Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 3 to MIS 1 (Holocene). The average of sedimentation rate in core sediments varies from 10 cm/kyr to 20 cm/kyr, but it fluctuates generally in particular time intervals such as MIS 2, which would be related with the sea-level changes at that time. On the other hand, the relations between ${\delta}^{13}C_{org}$ and C/N ratios suggest that the organic matter in the cores was originated mainly from marine algae. In addition, the value of ${\delta}^{13}C_{CH4}$ indicates bacterial origin rather than thermogenic one.

울산 퇴적 분지에 분포하는 신현층의 이암층 노두에서 이매패에 속하는 Anadara 를 비롯한 여러 종류의 연체동물 화석을 채집하였다. Anadara 화석은 해성 기원의 연체동물로 Vicarya japonica Yabe and Hatai와 함께 소위 Vicarya-Anadara 군집에 속한다. 이 군집은 우리나라의 제3기 생층서를 이해하는데 가장 중요한 정보를 제공한다. 여기에서는 Andara 화석의 형태적 특징과 내부 구조를 고찰하고, 현생종과 비교하였다. 신현층에서 산출된 Anadara 화석은 1속 2종으로 구성된다. 각의 형태적 특징은 각의 외형이 삼각형에 가깝고, 표면에 25~30개의 방사륵이 발달해 있으며 인대면은 삼각형 모형으로, 교치선은 직선이다. 각의 내부 구조를 박편상에서 관찰한 결과, 4개의 층으로 구성되어 있다. Anadara 화석과 현생종 Scapharca subcrenata 을 비교한 결과, 각의 외형은 조금 다르나 내부구조는 서로 거의 유사하다. A. (H.) kakehataensis의 내부 구조는 최외층, 외층, 광휘층, 내층으로 구성되어 있다. 외층은 교차판 구조(crossed- lamellar structure)로 되어 있다. 또한 성장선이 발달되어 있으며, 복연부에 불규칙한 균열이 부분적으로 나타난다. 이는 외부로 노출되어 건조되고 다시 물기를 머금은 상태가 반복되어 수축 팽창에 의한 것이라고 생각되며, 별개의 층은 아니다. 내층은 엽상구조(foliated structure)가 관찰된다. 외층과 내층 사이에 아라고나이트로 구성된 광휘층이 나타나며, 능주 구조(prismatic structure)를 보이는 얇은 층이다. 최외층이 나타난다. A. (H.) daitokudoensis의 내부 구조는 A. (H.) kakehataensis와 서로 거의 유사하고, 내층, 외층, 광휘층 및 최외층의 4개의 층으로 구성된다. 엽상 구조인 내층, 교차판 구조인 외층, 능주 구조인 광휘층 및 최외층은 유기질층으로 되어있다.

The combination of geological, structural and satellite image studies is used to make an examination of the Miocene eruptive type in the Eoil Basin, SE Korea. The basin subsided by the NW-SE extension due to NNW dextral shearing during the East Sea opening. Based on geological structures as well as lithofacies and ages of the basin-fills, it is divided into the NE subbasin and the SW subbasin which were abundantly filled with basaltic volcanics and marine sediments without volcanic materials, respectively: Syndeposional synclines and anticlines are characteristically developed in the NE subbasin, which amplitudes decrease away from the adjacent normal faults to make them into a homoclinal structure. The thicker lavas as well as the younger agglomerates and lacustrine sediments, which show circular distributions, are distributed around the axial zones of major synclines. The satellite image shows four remarkable circular structures within the NE subbasin. They are located adjacent to and along the normal faults, and they are laid almost exactly on the axial zones of the synclines as well as on the distribution area of the agglomerates and lacustrine sediments. These facts indicate that the basaltic lava effusion were conducted by the normal faults like a kind of fissure-eruption and its activity was more predominant at the sites in where the synclines are developed. More active effusion of lava became a reason for deeper subsidence to make differential subsidence and syndepositional folding adjacent to and along the normal faults. Hence, we suggest that a nested cauldron structure was formed in the NE subbasin of the Eoil Basin, and that the volcanism made the subbasin to be a lava pond and controlled the process of filling and sedimentation in the subbasin.

The overall structural framework was studied using the regional 2D seismic data, followed by the sequence stratigraphic study on the 3D seismic and well- log data in the margin of the South Con Son basin of the South China Sea. This research contributes to delineate depositional stratigraphy, depositional environment and geologic history in the 3D seismic area of highly complicated faulting. Eight Miocene sequences were indicated on the 3D seismic and well-log data, in which the structural maps of each sequence boundary and the isochron maps for the corresponding sequence were made. The seismic facies were analyzed for each sequence volume and sequence boundary surface. The 3D seismic area is characterized by coal beds deposited in the transgression environment (transgression systems tract) and channel distributions just above the sequence boundaries. During the Early Miocene, the coals and thick shales deposited in the mangrove swamp representing the lower coastal plain environment. During the Mid to Late Miocene, thick clastic sediments deposited in the coastal to shallow shelf by regional subsidence and marine transgression. The isochron maps and structural patterns indicate that the sediments were transported from west to east or from northwest to southeast.
