| contents | The early–middle Cambrian siliciclastic tide‐dominated succession in eastern Korea Min‐Kyu Oh Taejin Choi Jeong‐Hyun Lee The Depositional Record AbstractThe basal Taebaek Group (Myeonsan and Myobong formations) illustrates second‐order transgression on the eastern Sino‐Korean Block during the early–middle Cambrian (Stage 3?–Wuliuan). The irregular palaeotopography of Precambrian basement led to the development of localised alluvial fans and fan deltas. As transgression continued, tidally influenced estuarine and associated shallow subtidal flats developed. Continued transgression resulted in a relatively deep subtidal environment, with postulated carbonate shoals serving as barriers. Stacking of facies indicates a general deepening‐upward trend, transitioning from terrestrial–nearshore to marine environments dominated by tidal effects. The study area subsequently experienced shallowing, leading to the emergence of tidal inlet and dune environments. Siliciclastic input was attenuated, facilitating the development of carbonate shoal complexes. The overall transgressive succession of the basal Taebaek Group aligns with similar sequences observed in the Sino‐Korean Block and western Laurentia, where the lowermost Cambrian strata which formed in various depositional environments on the uneven basement rocks were followed by extensive tide‐dominated siliciclastic successions. These successions were then overlain by epeiric carbonate platforms that developed synchronously across the area as siliciclastic input diminished with the continued transgression. This comparison demonstrates that the transgressive sequences in the Sino‐Korean Block and western Laurentia can be understood within a framework that explains how extensive Cambrian carbonate platforms initially developed due to a second‐order eustatic sea‐level rise during the Cambrian greenhouse period. 10.1002/dep2.310 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ |
