ملخص المقالة :
سازند قم در ناحیه مرق و در 20 کیلومتری جنوب غرب کاشان با ضخامت 216 متر از سنگ آهک و شیل تشکیل شده است که به صورت ناپیوسته بر روی سنگ آتشفشانی ائوسن و به طور ناپیوسته در زیر سازند قرمز بالایی قرار دارد. براساس آلوکم های اصلی و ویژگی های رسوبی نه ریز رخساره کربناته و یک رخساره آواری شناسایی گردید. این ریز رخساره ها ی کربناته و رخساره آوری در پلت فرمی از نوع شلف باز رسوب گذاری کرده اند. این پلت فرم را می توان به سه محیط شلف داخلی (لاگون محصور و نیمه محصور)، شلف میانی و شلف خارجی تقسیم کرد. براساس توزیع عمودی ریز رخساره ها سه سکانس رسوبی کامل درجه 3 و یک سکانس ناقص رسوبی تشخیص داده شد.
