FULL TEXT REVIEWED (reviewer-supplied PDF; doi:10.1007/s12303-018-0022-3). Major/trace/REE geochemistry of the clastic fraction of the late Neoproterozoic (Ediacaran) Salt Range Formation (Salt and Trans-Indus Ranges). Sandstones/shales classify as arkose, subarkose and litharenite sourced from felsic and/or intermediate igneous rocks (felsic island arc with minor andesitic-arc and older passive-margin input); deposited in fluvial to restricted-shelf conditions under an arid to semi-arid, oxygenated palaeoclimate.
This page is the reverse of each unit's per-field citations — it shows exactly what this reference supports, making the dataset's “no source, no fact” rule browsable both ways.

- Geological significance: Farooqui et al. (2019), full text: geochemistry of the clastic fraction of the late Neoproterozoic (Ediacaran) Salt Range Formation classifies the sandstones/shales as arkose, subarkose and litharenite sourced from felsic and/or intermediate igneous rocks (felsic island arc, with minor andesitic-arc and older passive-margin input). The detritus was deposited in fluvial to restricted-shelf conditions under an arid to semi-arid, oxygenated palaeoclimate — consistent with the recorded arid, restricted-marine evaporite setting.
