(
Qatar University
, 2000 , Article)
A gravity study on the Qatar Peninsula was conducted to leam about density contrasts in this region and to gain information about subsurface geological structures favourable for oil and gas reserves. We recorded high quality ...
Tectonic Setting and Petrogenetic Evolution of Wadi Erier Rocks, South Eastern Desert, Egypt
(
Qatar University
, 2003 , Article)
A combination of geologic, petrographic and chemical criteria is used to classify the Erier basement rocks into three suites namely, the metagabbro-diorite (MGD) suite, the tonalite-granodiorite (TG) suite and the ...
