The northeast African continental margin of the Western Desert of Egypt is host to
a complexly deformed series of Phanerozoic basins. Substantial sedimentary deposition

(~5 km) and basin formation resulted from regional deformation due to continental collision and repeated rifting and inversion cycles. Limited sedimentary exposure and exploration has prevented elucidation of Phanerozoic basin evolution, particularly in the Paleozoic.
Previous studies of the region have largely relied upon sedimentary analysis, gravity, and
2D/3D seismic data. This study, in contrast, has employed extensive use of detrital zircon
(U-Th)/He thermochronology (n=1004) from 17 wells in conjunction with 3D seismic,
well log correlation, and heat flow data to elucidate a spatiotemporally comprehensive
tectonic and stratigraphic model.

The detrital zircon thermochronometric data provides new evidence that the lower
Paleozoic, Carboniferous, and Mesozoic stratigraphic sequences of the Western Desert

represent thermally distinct, tectonically controlled sequences with independent thermal
evolutions. The lower Paleozoic sequence has been partially thermally reset, reaching
temperatures of ~140-170 C. Partial resetting is noted throughout the region and reached
its thermal maximum in the Permo-Triassic, synchronous with onset of Neotethyan rifting.
vi
The Carboniferous sequence has not been thermally reset, with exposure to temperatures
no greater than ~140 C and reaching thermal maximum presently. Carboniferous (U-Th)/
He ages have dominant input from short-lag-time zircons (exhumation to deposition) and
indicate the stratigraphic sequence was proximally sourced. The proximal sourcing is
likely from transmitted stress and fault reactivation in Egypt during the Hercynian Orogeny that caused fault block exhumation and erosional unroofing. Sediment was shed from
uplifted fault blocks that formed the eastern boundary of the Carboniferous sequence. The
Mesozoic sequence has not been thermally reset, reaching temperatures no greater than
~120 C and presently reaching thermal maximum.

Localized areas with stacking of lower Paleozoic, Carboniferous, and Mesozoic
sequences likely bury the lower Paleozoic to abnormally deep depths (~7 km) and elevated
temperatures of ~200 C. Evidence from faulting relationships, basin controlling structures,
and heat flow data indicate that N-S trending basement structures may define a region of
crustal transition between the Archean-Paleoproterozoic Saharan Metacraton and the juvenile Arabian-Nubian Shield.

1. Introduction

The northeast African passive continental margin is dominated by Phanerozoic
sedimentary sequences that conceal the complex tectonic deformation of the region. The
tectonic evolution of the Western Desert of Egypt has been difficult to resolve as a result of
the massive (~4-6 km) and expansive sedimentary cover and limited Paleozoic exploration.
The relatively recent (1990s) increase in exploration of the region for hydrocarbon resources has progressively led to a better understanding of the regional tectonic evolution. This
study aspires to develop a cohesive tectono-thermal model of Phanerozoic basin evolution
primarily using detrital zircon (U-Th)/He dating of basin sediments from well cuttings in
conjunction with 2D and 3D seismic, well log correlation, and heat flow data (provided by
Apache Egypt).

The Proterozoic development of the continental margin was predominately influ-
enced by the East African Orogeny that accreted island arcs, volcanics, ophiolites, sediment,
and crustal blocks forming the juvenile Arabian-Nubian Shield (Stern, 1994; Johnson and
Woldehaimanot, 2003; Stern and Johnson, 2010). Orogenesis was pervasive throughout
Africa in the Proterozoic and resulted in the remobilization of the Archean-Paleoproterozoic Saharan Metacraton (Vail, 1971; Stern, 1994; Abdelsalam et al., 2003). Following
Pan-African amalgamation of Gondwana, the northeast African continental margin existed as an intracratonic basin environment during the Paleozoic. During the Late Devonian-Carboniferous Hercynian orogeny, transmitted stress caused fault block exhumation
and related erosional unroofing along N-S basement structures in Egypt. It was not until
the Triassic that the margin transitioned into a rifted margin with the development of approximately three distinct rift-related basins (Keeley and Massoud, 1998). Voluminous
sedimentation during intracratonic basin development and especially Jurassic-Cretaceous
rift basin evolution led to formation of commercially significant structural hydrocarbon
reservoirs. However, the complex evolution and lack of detailed studies of the margin
1
has made hydrocarbon exploration of the region difficult. Previous regional studies have
largely relied upon analysis of proprietary industry well log correlation tools, 2D and 3D
seismic, and sedimentary analysis data. These tools have provided insight into the geometry of structures in the region and have been able to identify stratigraphic packages, but
have provided little information into timing and rates of fault block exhumation and differentiation of distinct tectono-thermal Paleozoic sedimentary packages. Well cuttings were
crucial for solving these problems since Mesozoic and Paleozoic strata are deeply buried
and not locally exposed (Fig. 1 and Fig. 2). Utilization of industry tools in conjunction
with thermochronometric techniques conducted on well cuttings was essential for elucidation of thermally distinct stratigraphic packages.

Numerous studies of extensional margins have utilized thermochronology to in-
vestigate extension and fault block exhumation rates (Foster et al., 1990; Foster and John;
1999; Stockli et al., 2001; Stockli, 2005). Zircon (U-Th)/He thermochronology has been
especially useful to study low temperature thermal perturbations. The low closure temperature of zircon (~180 C) (Reiners and Farley, 1999; Reiners et al., 2002; Reiners, 2005)
provides an optimal thermal window to examine basin sediments to depths of ~7 km (assuming a thermal gradient of 25 C/km). Although zircon (U-Th)/He was initially applied
to produce reliable and reproducible ages for igneous or metamorphic rocks, recent studies
have applied the technique to sedimentary rocks with detrital zircon populations, yielding detrital zircon (U-Th)/He (DZHe) ages (Reiners and Heffern, 2002; Rahl and Reiners,
2002; Reiners et al., 2005). DZHe analysis provides the ability to analyze thermal signatures of regional detrital sources and local thermally-reset zircons, providing important
insight into the tectonic activity of a region. The low temperature window of DZHe dating
also makes it possible to accurately and precisely define the timing of thermal fluctuations
in distinct stratigraphic sequences.

Recent work by Glauser (2010) analyzed sedimentary well cutting samples from
2
two wells in the Western Desert of Egypt. Detrital apatite and zircon (U-Th)/He thermochronology was employed to interpret the effect the Cambro-Ordovician to Cretaceous
unconformity had on the tectono-thermal evolution of the margin and thermal provenance
analysis of detritus. This study expands upon the work by Glauser (2010), including 17
regionally distributed wells (Fig. 3) and ~1000 analyses, to provide greater regional insight
into the Paleozoic evolution and define tectono-thermally distinct Paleozoic packages separated by regional unconformities (i.e. Hercynian unconformity), and develop a model of
the tectonic evolution of the northeast African margin throughout the Phanerozoic.
2. Geologic Setting
2.1 Proterozoic

The Neoproterozoic assembly of Gondwana and Pan-African orogenesis caused
the deformation and remobilization of the Saharan Metacraton and formation of the juvenile late Neoproterozoic Arabian-Nubian Shield (Stern, 1994). The assembly of the
Arabian-Nubian Shield during the East African Orogeny (EAO) led to the establishment
of structural lineations throughout North African crust (Stern, 1994; Badalini et al., 2002).
Following the peak of the EAO, orogeny-parallel extension and tectonic collapse initiated
along strike-slip shear zones in northeast Africa (Stern, 1994; Kuster and Harms, 1998;
Shang et al., 2011). The Neoproterozoic EAO emplaced strike-slip shear zones and structural fabrics that exerted control on the early development of Paleozoic basin formation
(Badalini et al., 2002; Bumby and Guiraud, 2005).
2.2 Paleozoic

In the late Cambrian extension and intracratonic subsidence promoted clastic sedi-
mentary deposition across much of northern Africa and Arabia, initiating the development
of the Ghazalat basin (Badalini et al., 2002). By the late Ordovician substantial (~1 km)
deposition had occurred in the Ghazalat basin. Subsequently the region, at the time situated

in the high southern latitudes, experienced a pulse of glaciation (Keeley, 1989; Guiraud
and Bosworth, 1999; Bumby and Guiraud, 2005; Guiraud et al., 2005; Ruban et al., 2007)
(Fig. 4). Glaciation ended by the early Silurian and deposition resumed. It was not until
the late Devonian to late Carboniferous that initiation of crustal compression from the
Gondwana-Laurasia Hercynian orogeny caused the margin to develop into broad forelands and intra-cratonic basins (Boote et al., 1998). The Late Devonian to Carboniferous
Hercynian orogeny (~380 Ma-280 Ma) caused deformation in West Africa with decreasing deformation to the east, extending into northeast Africa (Badalini et al., 2002). The
Hercynian orogeny caused regional uplift and the Hercynian unconformity that erosionally truncated much of North Africa extending into Arabia (Dixon et al., 2010; Baudon et
al., 2012). Additionally, the orogeny transmitted compression across northern Africa that
caused the reactivation of N-S basement structures (Boote, 1998; Badalini et al., 2002).
Deposition resumed in the early Carboniferous until the margin started to transition into a
rifted margin in the Permian.
2.3 Mesozoic

Breakup of Pangea commenced in the late Permian with a transtensional regime
forming between Laurasia and Gondwana (Fairhead and Wilson, 2005). The nascent Neotethys Ocean began to form with the rifting of the continental margin. The development
of the rifting followed the structural fabric created during Precambrian tectonism (Daly et
al., 1989; Keeley, 1989; Keeley and Wallis, 1991). The rifting of the North African margin
began in the Late Triassic forming the North African extension of the Neotethys Ocean
(Bumby and Guiraud, 2005). The Neotethys Ocean growth accelerated in the Triassic as
the Paleotethys Ocean became narrower due to internal and peripheral subduction zones
(Sengr et al., 1988). The Triassic initiation of rifting coincides with regional erosion and
only minor localized marine deposition of the Ras Qattara Formation. The rifting of the
8
margin propagated westward as NE-SW strike-slip faults activated (Guiraud et al., 1998)
with extension accommodated by a series of orthogonal SE-dipping normal faults. The
westward propagation of rifting caused the development of a series of rift basins along the
Libyan and Egyptian coasts that overlaid previous intracratonic basins. These rift basins
became dominant features as rifting extended throughout the Jurassic, punctuating a fundamental change to Tethyan-related basin dynamics (Keeley, 1994). Extension throughout
the Jurassic produced exhumation of large fault blocks that were subsequently unroofed,
recycling overlying Paleozoic strata and basement material into adjacent basins (Glauser,
2010). Tectonic and eustatic effects throughout the Jurassic and Cretaceous rifting resulted
in massive syn-rift deposition (Keeley, 1994).

Short-lived rifting and inversion pulses occurred throughout the Cretaceous, caus-
ing localized subsidence and uplift along the African margin. The most significant of these
was the Santonian (~85 Ma) inversion that activated shear and wrench zones as Africa partially accommodated differential opening of the equatorial Atlantic (Fairhead and Wilson,
2005). Basins experienced inversion (Fig. 1) with localized folding and wrench faulting,
volcanic activity, and coupled episodes of uplift, erosion, and offshore deposition (Bosworth et al., 2008). The inversion caused truncation of SE-dipping normal faults of the
rifted margin. Sedimentation continued throughout the Cretaceous and Tertiary with eustatic changes occurring across NE Africa extending as far inland as southern Egypt and
northern Sudan.
3. Zircon (U-Th)/He Thermochronology

Resolving thermal histories and timing of tectonic events can be quantitatively
measured by isotopic analysis of radioactive decay systems within minerals that are sensitive to particular thermal regimes. Investigation of thermally sensitive isotopic decay
systems has greatly increased our understanding of time-temperature pathways during ero9
sional unroofing and tectonic exhumation. The occurrence of zircon in many lithologies,
combined with its chemical and abrasion resistance make zircon an excellent mineral for
thermochronologic studies of exhumation processes.

Zircon (U-Th)/He thermochronology is a well-established technique for elucidat-
ing fluctuations in low temperature thermal regimes (Reiners and Farley, 1999; Farley,
2000, Farley and Stockli, 2002; Reiners et al., 2004). Radiogenic parent isotopes
U,
238
U, 232Th, and 147Sm incorporated in the crystal structure of zircon produce 4He from alpha
235
decay. Alpha particles are ejected from parent isotopes at ~4-8 MeV with an approximate
stopping distance of 20 m (Farley et al., 1996; Meesters et al., 2002). 4He is retained in
zircon intra-crystalline sites as long as the effective closure temperature (Tc) of ~180 C is
not exceeded (Reiners and Farley, 1999; Reiners, 2002, 2004; Biswas et al., 2007, Cherniak et al., 2009, Wolfe and Stockli, 2010). Temperatures slightly below the Tc are referred
to as the partial retention zone (PRZ). The PRZ for zircon is ~140-180 C through which
He is only partially retained in the crystal lattice (Wolfe and Stockli, 2010). The ~20 m
stopping distance of alpha particles in zircon results in 4He loss, as particles produced within this distance may be ejected from the grain boundary. (U-Th)/He age corrections are
applied for -ejections from the grain boundary using the FT correction method (Farley et
al., 1996; Farley, 2002). These -ejections and associated parent atom recoil cause offsets
in the crystallographic atomic structure of zircon, creating radiation damage (Weber, 1993)
that increases with higher concentrations of parent isotopes and increasing age since exposure to temperatures greater than the Tc. Highly metamict or radiation-damaged minerals
have fast diffusion pathways that result in 4He loss. The loss of 4He reduces the (U-Th)/He
age of a zircon.
3.1 Detrital Zircon (U-Th)/He Thermochronology

Detrital zircon (U-Th)/He thermochronology is a powerful provenance tool that

10
can establish the cooling history of source terranes. It is preferable to other minerals and
techniques for studying basin thermal history due to the ability to record the time of cooling
to approximately 180 C, high resistance to chemical alteration and physical abrasion, and
prevalence in sandstone lithologies. Zircon U-Pb is an excellent provenance tool (Gehrels
et al. 2011), but is not a diagnostic for the region due to homogeneous basement provinces
and recycling of Paleozoic and Mesozoic strata with nearly identical age population distributions (Fig. 5). Other commonly used thermochronometric techniques including muscovite 40Ar/39Ar, apatite fission track and apatite (U-Th)/He were considered (Hodges et al.,
2005; Stock et al., 2006; Resentini and Malusa, 2012), but ultimately found unsuitable for
several reasons. Muscovite 40Ar/39Ar was determined to be unsuitable do the to the lack of
muscovite in most Paleozoic and Mesozoic lithologies. Apatite fission track and apatite
(U-Th)/He were found to be unsuitable for this investigation given the depth of Paleozoic
strata and thermal regime.

The abrasion of detrital zircons can complicate the recording of thermal evolution.
After initial crystallization a helium depletion zone will form around the rim of the grain
due to -ejection past the grain boundary. As transport occurs zircons can experience
partial to complete abrasion of the depleted helium rim, which can then be overlapped
with a secondary helium depleted rim formed in a post depositional environment (Rahl
et al., 2003). This creates complexity in making FT corrections that cannot currently be
quantitatively identified. While the standard FT correction was applied for consistency, this
problem is recognized as a source of analytical uncertainty in this study.

Detrital zircon (U-Th)/He thermochronology requires grains that meet specific re-
quirements. The non-metamict and fracture free grains must be greater than 60 m in
width along the A and B axes to reduce error related to FT correction (Farley et al., 1996).
These requirements exclude some detrital zircons and may lead to under-sampling of some
detrital populations. Sample bias is compounded by the small number of analyses that can
11
be performed per sample due to time required for sample preparation and analysis. Due to
these complications it is crucial to analyze more grains than the three selected for (U-Th)/
He thermochronology of igneous host rocks. Ideally greater than 100 grains would be analyzed per sample (Vermeesch, 2004); however, this is not possible given the prohibitive
amount of analytical work. For this study 6-10 zircon aliquots were analyzed from individual samples and statistical representation was improved by combining multiple samples
from the same formation.
4. Methodology

The low-temperature thermal history of strata provides constraints on basin tec-
tonic evolution, specifically exhumation and burial history. Due to limited exposure of
Paleozoic and Mesozoic stratigraphy in the northern region of the Western Desert of Egypt
(Fig. 2), all samples were provided by Apache Egypt in the form of well cuttings from 17
wells that provided unprecedented access to regional stratigraphy. Samples were collected
onsite from formations below 5,000 ft. measured depth at ~10 ft. intervals. Following
initial borehole sampling, samples of the same formation and adjacent in depth interval
were combined to provide larger sample size and increase detrital zircon yields. These
combined samples generally are from a 30-150 ft. depth interval.

Proper sampling of borehole cuttings is critical for the data interpretation of this
study. The well cuttings were carefully circulated and logged onsite by Apache Egypt.
Proprietary chemostratigraphy and palynological data from Apache Eygpt show negligible
smearing and cross-contamination with distinct variation and sharp contrasts of trace element data from formation to formation. This is corrobrated by previous work conducted
by Glauser (2010) and this study that show negligible age smearing across unconfromities.
Thus we have confidence that there is little contamination and smearing of ages is not in
excess of 50 feet.

The borehole samples were collected as wet cuttings at the drill site prior to any
heating or drying treatment. Mineral separation involved removal of any drill mud (often
with diesel and other additives) from the wet cuttings. After drill mud and additives were
removed samples were decanted to remove any remaining silts and clays. Once dry, standard mineral separation was used to separate detrital zircons.

Single-grain aliquots were analyzed for each sample. Six aliquots per sample from
Mesozoic strata and ten per sample from Paleozoic strata. The Paleozoic strata had more
aliquots per sample analyzed to provide more data for the less well understood stratigraphic package. Zircon grains were picked from mineral separates and measured to determine
their length and width. Measured zircons were packed in platinum tubes and laser heated
using a diode laser to ~1275 C for 10 minutes to extract helium (House et al., 2000 and
Tagami et al., 2003). The packets were repeatedly reheated until less than 1% of total
extracted helium gas was removed from the grain. The liberated gas was spiked with 3He
and calibrated using a precisely determined 4He internal standard to determine unknown
He concentrations by isotope dilution method. The volume of liberated helium gas was
measured using a quadrupole mass spectrometer following cryogenic purification.

After helium extraction, zircons were removed from the platinum packets and
spiked with an isotopically-enriched 235U, 230Th, and 149Sm tracer that is gravimetrically calibrated to a ~1 ppb U-Th-Sm standard solution. The zircons were dissolved using pressure
digestion vessels using a two-step HF-HNO3 and HCL dissolution procedure to ensure
complete digestion and recovery of U, Th, and Sm (Blackburn et al., 2007). All analyses
were conducted at the University of Texas and the University of Kansas using a Thermo
Scientific Element 2 HR-ICP-MS for 235U, 238U, 232Th, 230Th, 147Sm, and 149Sm isotopes.

The following data, analysis, and filtering steps were performed. Total -dose cal-
culations were made using measurements of U, Th, and Sm nuclide concentration and
-ejections per isotopic parent (Nasdala et al., 2003), and assuming 350 m.y. since last
14
thermal resetting. An age of 350 m.y. was used because this was the most abundant age
population. An -dose filter value was set at 4.0x1017 /g. Grains with a high -dose could
be anomalously young because of helium loss and were thus removed from the data used
for the interpretation of the thermal history of the samples.
5. Results

Well cuttings were collected from 17 wells across the Western Desert of Egypt (Fig.
1). The samples were collected from below 5000' depth, yielding a total of 138 samples.
Approximately 1000 single DZHe analyses were obtained during this investigation. Samples were divided into three groups based on stratigraphic age of the formations, Mesozoic
(Bajocian-Cenomanian), Carboniferous (Mississippian-Pennsylvanian), and lower Paleozoic (Cambrian-Devonian). DZHe ages from the Mesozoic strata range from Paleoproterozoic to the depositional age with nearly all ages older than the stratigraphic age of the
sampled formation. Several Mesozoic samples have volcanic zircons with ages equal to
the depositional age. Samples from the Carboniferous stratigraphy are largely composed
of DZHe ages from the late Neoproterozoic to approximately equal to the stratigraphic age
of the host formation. The lower Paleozoic zircon ages ranged from Paleoproterozoic to
Cenozoic with more than half of DZHe ages younger than the depositional age of the sampled formation. Data from individual wells were compared to assess the spatial evolution
of region. The seven wells discussed below all penetrated the lower Paleozoic sequence
and had a substantial number of DZHe analyses. For data collected from wells that did not
penetrate the lower Paleozoic refer to the appendix.
5.1 Ebni-1X

The Ebni-1X (12 samples, 82 aliquots) well penetrated Mesozoic, Carboniferous
and lower Paleozoic sequences, terminating in the Silurian age Basur Formation (Fig. 6).
Samples were collected and analyzed from the Mesozoic AEB-5 and Safa, Carboniferous
15
Dhiffah and Desouqy, and lower Paleozoic Zeitoun and Basur formations. The Mesozoic
and Carboniferous DZHe ages were all older than the stratigraphic age of the formation
with the exception of one analysis (Fig. 6). The lower Paleozoic formations yielded more
DZHe ages age younger than the depositional age than older (12 of 22 analyses). Figure
7 shows that all Mesozoic DZHe ages were older than the depositional age and -dose has
no correlation with DZHe age. The Carboniferous DZHe ages yielded a large population
of ages extending from the Carboniferous to Early Cambrian. The older Carboniferous
DZHe ages are associated with lower -dose. The three youngest ages all have high -dose.
The lower Paleozoic DZHe ages typically range from Ordovician to Early Triassic with
most ages of Early Triassic. Figure 6 shows as depth increases the population of ages
younger than the depositional age increases in the lower Paleozoic formations.
5.2 Faghur Deep-1X

The Faghur Deep-1X (9 samples, 48 aliquots) penetrated the Mesozoic, Carbonif-
erous, and lower Paleozoic stratigraphic sequences and reached bottom in the Silurian age
Basur Formation (Fig. 8). Samples were collected and analyzed from the Mesozoic Zahra
Formation, the Carboniferous Dhiffah and Desouqy formations, and the Zeitoun and Basur
formations. All of the Mesozoic Zahra DZHe ages were older than the Middle Jurassic
depositional age. The Carboniferous DZHe ages were generally equal to or older than the
formation age with a population of Middle Devonian to Late Carboniferous ages. Nearly
half of analyses from the lower Paleozoic were younger than the stratigraphic age of the
corresponding formation with younger ages strongly associated with higher -dose (Fig. 9).
The lower Paleozoic DZHe ages are bimodal with age populations that range from Ordovician to late Carboniferous and Permo-Triassic (Fig. 9). Figure 8 shows as depth increases
in the lower Paleozoic strata the distribution of ages below the depositional age increase.

5.3 Siwa-A-1X

The Siwa-A-1X (22 samples, 141 aliquots) well penetrated the Mesozoic, Carbon-
iferous, and lower Paleozoic starta and reached bottom in the Silurian age Basur Formation.
Samples were collected and analyzed from nine Mesozoic formations, the Carboniferous
Dhiffah and Desouqy, and Lower Paleozoic Zeitoun and Basur formations (Fig. 10). All
but one Mesozoic DZHe age were older than the depositional age of the host formation.
The Mesozoic ages are noted by Cambro-Ordovician ages with a smaller group of syndepositional Aptian-Albian ages. The Carboniferous detrital zircons yielded all but two
ages older than the depositional age with a bimodal age distribution; Cambro-Ordovician
and Carboniferous. In contrast to the Mesozoic and Carboniferous stratigraphy, the lower
Paleozoic results had nearly half of the ages younger than the Devonian and Silurian age
of the formations (Fig. 11). Figure 10 shows the population of ages younger than the depositional age increases with depth in the lower Paleozoic stratigraphy.
5.4 Sall-C-1X

The Sall-C-1X (14 samples, 77 aliquots) well penetrated the Mesozoic, Carbonif-
erous, and lower Paleozoic sequences and reached bottom in the Cambro-Ordovician basal
lower Paleozoic Shifah Formation. Samples were collected and analyzed from the Mesozoic AEB Formation, Carboniferous Dhiffah and Desouqy, and lower Paleozoic Zeitoun,
Basur, Kohla, and Shifah formations (Fig. 12). The ages from Mesozoic and Carboniferous formations were all older than the depositional age of the formation. The Carboniferous samples show a dominant Ordovician age population. The lower Paleozoic formations
had nearly half of DZHe ages younger than the age of the formation (Fig. 13). All Zeitoun
DZHe ages were older than the stratigraphic age. Figure 12 shows that as depth increases
in the lower Paleozoic formations an increasing proportion of DZHe ages are younger
than the depositional age. The lower Paleozoic Zeitoun Formation in this well is the only

5.5 Sall-A-1X

The Sall-A-1X (7 samples, 71 aliquots) well penetrated Mesozoic and lower Pa-
leozoic sequences, reaching bottom in the Devonian Zeitoun formation. Samples were
collected and analyzed from the Mesozoic Kharita, AEB, Zahra, and Safa formations and
the lower Paleozoic Devonian age Zeitoun Formation (Fig. 14). The well penetrates an
unconformity where Jurassic is on Devonian strata. All DZHe ages from the Mesozoic
formations were older the depositional age of the host formation. The lower Paleozoic
Zeitoun Formation had two-thirds of DZHe ages younger than the Devonian depositional
age (Fig. 15). Both Mesozoic and lower Paleozoic samples have a spread of ages with no
single dominant age population. The age distribution in Figure 14 is relatively consistent
between the Mesozoic and lower Paleozoic samples; however, there is a nearly a 200 Myr
difference in the age of deposition.
5.6 Sarir-1X

The Sarir-1X (14 samples, 96 aliquots) well penetrated Mesozoic and lower Paleo-
zoic sequences, reaching bottom in the Cambro-Ordovician basal lower Paleozoic Shifah
Formation. Samples were collected and analyzed from the Mesozoic AEB-2 Formation
and the lower Paleozoic Zeitoun, Basur, Kohla, and Shifah formations crossing a Devonian-Jurassic unconformity (Fig. 16). The well crosses an unconformity spanning where
middle Barremian is on Devonian strata. All of the ages from the AEB-2 Formation were
older than the stratigraphic age. The lower Paleozoic formations had nearly half of all
DZHe ages younger than the depositional age of the host formation (Fig. 17). Figure 16
shows that as depth increases in the lower Paleozoic the DZHe ages tend to young.

5.7 WGhaz-A-1X

The WGhaz-A-1X (7 samples, 73 aliquots) penetrated the Mesozoic and lower Pa-
leozoic sequences reaching bottom in the Cambro-Ordovician Shifah Fromation. Samples

were collected from the Mesozoic Kharita, AEB, and Safa formations and the basal lower
Paleozoic Cambro-Ordovician Shifah Formation (Fig. 18). This well penetrates an Ordovician-Bajocian unconformity. The Mesozoic samples had all DZHe ages older than
deposition, with the exception of two ages slightly younger than the depositional age of
the host formation. Approximately half of the lower Paleozoic Shifah fomation ages were
younger than the age of deposition (Fig. 19). The spread of ages in both the Mesozoic and
lower Paleozoic packages span from late Cambrian to Late Triassic shown in both Figure
18 and Figure 19.
6. Interpretation of Detrital Zircon (U-Th)/He Data

The tectono-thermal basin history of the Western Desert of Egypt is the product of
continental collision and repeated rifting and inversion since the Jurassic. In the last fifty
years and particularly over the last decade increased hydrocarbon exploration throughout
the region has progressively increased our tectonic understanding of the area. This study
focuses on the thermal history of the Western Desert, specifically the Paleozoic evolution,
made possible by collaboration with Apache Egypt that has provided access to industry
tools and technology in addition to well cuttings from 17 regionally distributed wells.

Initial work by Glauser (2010) provided a framework of the Western Desert tecton-
ic basin evolution using detrital zircon (n=281) and apatite (n=33) (U-Th)/He thermochronometry on Paleozoic and particularly Mesozoic stratigraphy from two wells to investigate
the Jurassic-Ordovician unconformity. This study has emphasized analysis of the lower
Paleozoic and Carboniferous stratigraphy over the northern region of the Western Desert
to evaluate Paleozoic tectono-thermal evolution. In order to accomplish this, application

of DZHe dating was used to retrieve detrital zircon ages and identify time-temperature histories, in conjunction with well correlation, and seismic data. All analyzed wells penetrate
Mesozoic stratigraphy and present valuable data, but several wells penetrate Carboniferous
and lower Paleozoic stratigraphy which will be discussed in greater detail.
6.1 Ebni-1X

The Ebni-1X well was one of four wells that penetrated Mesozoic, Carboniferous,
and lower Paleozoic stratigraphic sections. The Mesozoic samples were analyzed from
the two basal most Mesozoic formations: AEB-5 and Safa. There are two primary detrital
sources: ~400 Ma and ~250 Ma. The Silurian age population is the dominant signal and
likely associated with regional tectonics caused by the onset of Paleotethyan rifting along
the northern margin of Gondwana. The ~250 Ma age population is presumably correlated
with local fault block exhumation during early onset of Triassic rifting of the margin.

DZHe analyses from the Carboniferous were conducted from the Dhiffah and De-
souqy formations. Examination of Figure 7 indicates that the majority of detrital input was
from ~500-300 Ma age sources. The age of the samples overlap or are slightly older than
the stratigraphic age of their respective formations and indicate input of short-lag-time
locally-derived detritus. The large population of ages and short lag time from thermal resetting to deposition indicate relatively local sourcing.

The lower Paleozoic samples were collected from the Zeitoun and Basur forma-
tions. Figure 6 shows a spread of ages with the highest concentration from the Early Triassic. These ages are younger than the stratigraphic age of the formations and indicate that
the zircons have been partially reset, reaching temperatures of ~140-160 C.
6.2 Faghur Deep-1X

The Faghur Deep-1X well penetrated through Mesozoic, Carboniferous, and lower
Paleozoic stratigraphy reaching total depth in the Silurian age Zeitoun formation. Meso34
zoic analyses were performed on the one sample collected from the Zahra Formation and
all ages are older than the stratigraphic age of the formation and are detrital ages.

Carboniferous samples were analyzed from the Dhiffah and Desouqy formations
and exhibit a dominant age population in the Devonian (Fig. 9). The Devonian age detrital
zircons are nearly the same age as deposition having occurred shortly after exhumation and
thermal resetting. The significant proportion of ages that this population represents and the
short lag time is an indication of a proximal source.

Lower Paleozoic analyses were conducted on samples collected from the Zeitoun
and Basur formations. The ages are widely distributed with the majority of DZHe ages
younger than the stratigraphic age of the formations. The DZHe ages indicate that the formations have been partially reset from exposure to temperatures of ~140-160 C.
6.3 Siwa-A-1X

Siwa-A-1X penetrated through Mesozoic, Carboniferous and lower Paleozoic stra-
tigraphy. All measured DZHe ages were equal to or older than the corresponding stratigraphic age and reached maximum temperatures of ~120 C. There is significant detrital
input from the Ordovician-Early Devonian that is likely associated with the onset of the
Hercynian orogeny (Fig. 11). There are DZHe ages that are the same age as the depositional age and potentially volcanic zircons that can be useful in formation identification.

The Carboniferous sampling from the Dhiffah and Desouqy formations exhibit
similar input of Ordovician DZHe ages to that of the Mesozoic stratigraphy. However,
there is a smaller population of ages approximately equal to the stratigraphic age of the
formations and are from short lag time detritus and proximally sourced. There is one age
significantly younger than the stratigraphic age that is probably due to analytical error or
contamination during well mud circulation as all other ages indicate that stratigraphy has
not been partially reset and reached a maximum temperature of ~140 C.
35
The lower Paleozoic sampling was from the Zeitoun and Basur formations. Figure
11 shows a spread of DZHe ages with several age populations, the most of which are in the
Jurassic, and are younger than the depositional age. The formations were partially reset
from exposures to temperatures of ~140-160 C.
6.4 Sall-C-1X

The Sall-C-1X well penetrated Mesozoic, Carboniferous, and lower Paleozoic stra-
tigraphy reaching final depth in the basal Paleozoic Shifah formation. Only three detrital
zircons were analyzed from the Mesozoic with all three of Ordovician age. The small
population of ages are older than the stratigraphic age of the formation and are consistent
with Mesozoic stratigraphy from other wells.

The Carboniferous samples were collected from the Dhiffah and Desouqy forma-
tions with all DZHe ages older than that of the corresponding stratigraphy. The population
of Silurian DZHe ages were locally sourced due to the large population of ages and close
proximity of thermal age and stratigraphic age. The Carboniferous stratigraphy has not
been thermally reset.

The lower Paleozoic samples were collected from the Zeitoun, Basur, Kohla, and
Shifah formations. Figure 12 indicates that the Zeitoun formation has not been thermally
reset, but as depth increases the lower Basur, Kohla, and Shifah formations experienced
increasingly elevated temperatures and correspondingly increase in degree of partial resetting. The Basur, Kohla and Shifah formations have all been partially reset with the Basur
and Kohla formations having experienced temperatures of ~140-160 C and the Shifah
formation temperatures of ~160-170 C.
6.5 Sall-A-1X

The Sall-A-1X well penetrated Mesozoic and lower Paleozoic stratigraphy, but
does not intersect any Carboniferous stratigraphy. All DZHe ages were older than that of
36
the corresponding formation and indicate that there was no thermal resetting of the zircons
and temperatures never exceeded 120 C (Fig. 14). There are age populations from the
Cambrian, Ordovician, and Early Devonian. This large population is probably associated
with the onset of Hercynian orogenesis in northwest Africa.

Lower Paleozoic analyses were conducted on one sample from the Zeitoun Forma-
tion. The DZHe ages are spread both younger and older than the stratigraphic age of the
formation and indicate that partial resetting of the detrital zircons occurred and the zircons
were exposed to temperatures of ~140-160 C.
6.6 Sarir-1X

The Sarir-1X well does not penetrate any Carboniferous stratigraphy, but did pen-
etrate the Mesozoic and lower Paleozoic sections. One Mesozoic sample was collected
from the AEB-2 formation with all the ages forming one Silurian population well above
the stratigraphic age. The ages are consistent with other Mesozoic sections.

The lower Paleozoic section had detrital zircons analyzed from Zeitoun, Basur,
Kohla, and Shifah formations. The ages vary from Late Cretaceous to the Cryogenian
with numerous zircon ages younger than the stratigraphic age and indicate that the lower
Paleozoic has undergone partial resetting. Figure 16 shows that the degree to which partial
resetting occurred increases with depth, as deeper formations have higher proportions of
ages below the stratigraphic age. The Zeitoun, Basur, and Kohla formations likely experienced temperatures between ~140-160 C while the Shifah formation was exposed to
temperatures of ~160-170 C.
6.7 WGhaz-A-1X

Mesozoic and lower Paleozoic stratigraphy were perforated in the WGhaz-A-1X;
however, no Carboniferous stratigraphy were penetrated. The Mesozoic DZHe ages were
collected from seven samples spanning over 6500 feet of vertical section. All DZHe ages
37
were older than the stratigraphic age with the exception of two ages that are likely the result
of analytical errors. The DZHe ages indicate there was no thermal resetting of the stratigraphy and temperatures never exceed 120 C after deposition.

Lower Paleozoic data was collected from the basal Paleozoic Shifah formation and
over half of DZHe ages younger than the stratigraphy. Helium ages indicate that the Shifah
formation was exposed to temperatures of ~160-170 C and were partially reset.
6.8 Other Wells

The remaining wells penetrate Mesozoic (Heqet-1X, Huni-1X, Mandulis-1X, Soli-
tair-1X, WKal-I-1X, and WMed-A-1X), Mesozoic and Carboniferous (Siwa-C-1X, WKalC-1X, and WKal-D-1X), and Mesozoic, Carboniferous, and lower Paleozoic (Sokar-1X)
stratigraphy (10 wells, 52 samples, 416 aliquots). The wells have similar age populations
and indicate similar tectonic evolutions for each package of Mesozoic, Carboniferous, and
lower Paleozoic stratigraphy (Fig 20). Data and figures of these wells can be found in the
appendix.
7. Discussion and Implications

Study of the Egyptian continental margin evolution has been limited due to the
expansive sedimentary cover, deeply buried stratigraphy, and limited exploration. While
exploration of the Mesozoic stratigraphy has become more extensive and the Mesozoic
basin and margin evolution has begun to be resolved (Keeley et al., 1990; Keeley, 1994;
Stampfli, 1996; Stampfli and Borel, 2002 Bosworth, 2008) the Paleozoic history has had
very limited exploration and remains poorly understood. The Paleozoic stratigraphy of
the Western Desert has generally been thought to have accumulated in an intracratonic
basin with a relatively uninterrupted depositional history. However, data from this study
reveal that the Paleozoic had a more complex evolution. The lower Paleozoic stratigraphy records the formation of an intracratonic basin with only minor unconformities, but
38
in the Late Devonian a significant change in basin evolution occurred as northwest Africa experienced deformation from the Hercynian orogeny and formed a thermally distinct
stratigraphic sequence. The Hercynian orogeny transmitted stress across much of North
Africa causing uplift and erosion throughout the region. The unconformity was expressed
in the Western Desert and accompanied by reactivation of N-S basement structures that
developed a Carboniferous basin that was filled with recycled detritus sourced from the
exhumed lower Paleozoic strata (Fig. 21). Deposition continued until the Permian when
the margin began to experience rifting from the nascent Neotethys. Rifting of the margin
became dominant in the Jurassic with deposition recommencing and continuing throughout the Cretaceous. By the latest Cretaceous rifting had terminated and the region existed
as a passive continental margin experiencing cycles of minor extension and compression
throughout the Tertiary.
7.1 Lower Paleozoic Evolution

The lower Paleozoic stratigraphy is a poorly understood stratigraphic sequence
as there is no surface exposure in the Western Desert and few boreholes penetrate the
strata. The stratigraphic sequence is composed of the Devonian Zeitoun, Silurian Basur
and Kohla, and Cambro-Ordovician Shifah formations that have experienced a distinctly
different thermal history than that of the Carboniferous. Unlike the Mesozoic and Carboniferous strata, the lower Paleozoic has experienced an elevated thermal gradient that
has caused partial resetting of DZHe ages. Many of the DZHe ages are younger than the
stratigraphic age of the formations and become increasingly younger than the stratigraphic
age as depth increases. The partial resetting of DZHe ages indicate that the Zeitoun, Basur,
and Kohla formations were exposed to temperatures of ~140-160 C, while the Shifah Formation experienced temperatures of ~160-170 C. The degree to which partial resetting
occurred was depth dependent and therefore the uppermost Zeitoun and Basur formations
39
were partially reset to a lesser degree than that of the basal Paleozoic Shifah Formation.
Figure 20 illustrates the general trend of increasingly younger proportion of DZHe ages as
depth increases. Due to the partial resetting of the DZHe ages little can be said about the
detrital input of this time period. The youngest partially reset zircons are approximately
Triassic-Early Jurassic in age, coinciding with early Neotethyan rifting, and may have been
cooled during exhumation in the Middle to Late Jurassic rifting.
7.2 Carboniferous Evolution

The Carboniferous stratigraphy of the Western Desert of Egypt present in this study
are the Dhiffah formation of middle Carboniferous age and the Desouqy formation deposited in the early Carboniferous. The Carboniferous section had over 200 DZHe analyses
with ~50 from the Dhiffah Formation and ~150 from the Desouqy Formation. The ages
of the detrital zircons were generally slightly older than or approximately equal to the
depositional age of the host formation and indicate that the Carboniferous stratigraphy has
not been thermally reset or exposed to temperatures in excess of ~140 C. These detrital
thermal ages display a dominant population of Cambrian-Ordovician ages that are likely
sourced from Paleotethyan Hunic rifting of Gondwana. However, a distinctive feature of
the Carboniferous stratigraphy is the large population of DZHe ages that are approximately
the same age as deposition. The voluminous influx of Devonian to Carboniferous thermal
ages found in Carboniferous strata implies that there was local tectonic activity at the time
that caused fault block exhumation and proximal deposition into this Carboniferous basin.
Volcanic input is unlikely as U-Pb age data from Mesozoic and lower Paleozoic samples
suggest there has been negligible volcanic activity since the Cambrian (Fig 5). This large
influx of Devonian to Carboniferous ages is interpreted as the result of local fault block
movement caused by transmitted stress from Hercynian tectonism that reactivated N-S
striking faults across northern Africa. Well log correlation shows that the Carboniferous
40
stratigraphy is only found to the west of these structures and that the eastern blocks were
uplifted and unroofed, recycling local lower Paleozoic sediment to form the Carboniferous
basin (Fig. 21).
7.3 Mesozoic Evolution

The Mesozoic history of the Western Desert is one of the most tectonically and
stratigraphically well understood sedimentary sequences of Egypt. The Mesozoic stratigraphy of the Western Desert experienced nearly interrupted deposition and massive
deposition (~2-4 km) from the Jurassic through the Cretaceous. This study examined the
Mesozoic formations spanning from the Early Cenomanian Bahariya Formation to the basal Mesozoic Bajocian age Safa Formation. Analysis was conducted on over 500 detrital
zircons from numerous samples spread regionally across 17 wells of the Western Desert.
Analyses show that nearly all of the DZHe ages are older than the stratigraphic age of their
corresponding formation. The entire Mesozoic sequence has experienced temperatures
below ~120 C since deposition and the DZHe ages are representative of thermal ages of
source terranes prior to deposition. The Mesozoic detrital ages show a dominant detrital
input of Cambrian to Early Devonian ages. This large population was likely sourced proximally as it accounts for a large portion of the ages and likely associated with initiation of
Paleotethyan Hunic rifting of crustal blocks from the North African extension of Gondwana. The Triassic and Jurassic age populations analyzed from the Mesozoic strata are associated with Neotethyan rifting and fault block exhumation. The Jurassic Safa formation
contains an influx of these Jurassic ages as the Safa sandstone is a synrift sequence and
formed from sediments shed from locally exhumed fault blocks. Early Triassic through
late Jurassic ages are present throughout the Mesozoic basins that have been tectonically
controlled by Tethyan rifting of the continental margin. The Mesozoic formations commonly have DZHe ages that are equivalent to the stratigraphic age of the host formation

and are likely volcanic zircons. These ages may be especially useful as they can be used to
identify the age and formation of the stratigraphic section that can be problematic since the
Western Desert is dominated by stacked sequences of homogenous sandstone formations.
7.4 Regional Implications

The DZHe ages collected from wells across the Western Desert of Egypt are a cru-
cial tool that when combined with industry well bore and seismic data have helped to elucidate the spatiotemporal evolution of the region. Initial basin development occurred as the
Ghazalat basin began to subside and a basement structural high formed during the Middle
Cambrian from the development of large north-south trending faults. Cambrian deposition
of the basal Paleozoic Shifah Formation began being deposited followed by deposition of
the Kohla, Basur, and Zeitoun formations.

During deposition of the lower Paleozoic sequence, Ordovician Paleotethyan Hunic
rifting of Gondwana occurred, contributing a significant amount of detrital material. This

large detrital input from Hunic rifting of Gondwana was likely augmented by Ordovician
glaciation and erosion of North Africa. The Cambrian-Ordovician detrital thermal ages
have significant representation in both Mesozoic and Carboniferous strata (Fig. 22), but are
absent in lower Paleozoic strata due to partial thermal resetting. The Cambro-Ordovician
DZHe ages are likely to reflect recycling from older sedimentary sequences that are fed
into younger basin stratigraphy.

Deposition recommenced in the early Silurian until the latest Devonian when the
Ghazalat basin began to be exhumed in conjunction with subsidence of the N-S basement
structure. This is interpreted to be a result of the initiation of Hercynian orogenesis in
northwestern Africa that transmitted strain throughout the northern region of Africa and
caused uplift, erosion, and fault reactivation (Fig. 21). Erosion of the latest Devonian
deposition began to occur in the exhumed Ghazalat basin and is corroborated by heat flow

data. The coeval subsidence of the basement structure assisted in the development of a
Carboniferous basin with a distinct thermal history from that of the lower Paleozoic. The
Carboniferous basin was restricted to the west of the uplifted Ghazalat basin and is experiencing its thermal maximum presently. Figures 23 through 26 illustrate the pinch out that
occurs to the Carboniferous basin to the North and East. Deposition following the Carboniferous becomes limited as the Permo-Triassic section is very poorly represented in the
Western Desert and is largely noted as continental margin clastics. This period represents a
transitional era as the Egyptian continental margin began to shift from an intracratonic basin into a rifted margin. Beginning as early as the Permian the margin began to be dissected; however, it was not until the Triassic-Jurassic that the margin began to be dominated by
rifting. The rifting was accommodated by large NE-SW striking and SE-dipping normal
faults. The normal faults began to dissect the margin from East to West as the normal faults
propagated westward. The westward fault propagation crossed the large N-S striking faulting that act as the Carboniferous basin boundary. These rifting-related normal faults began
to attenuate after penetration into the Carboniferous basin (Fig. 21 and Fig. 27).

This investigation reveals that the N-S faults represent a boundary between Ar-
chean-Paleoproterozoic crustal material and juvenile Pan-African Arabian-Nubian Shield.

Figure 27 provides a schematic of initial Carboniferous basin development and basal Mesozoic configuration of Western Desert basins with an illustrated cratonic transition zone.
This crustal transition zone is corroborated by heat flow data indicating a colder and older
crust to the West of these N-S fault structures. Nyblade and Pollack (1993) have demonstrated that lower levels of heat flow are present in older thicker crustal bodies in contrast
to warmer juvenile crustal material. This crustal transition may account for the attenuation
of NE-SW normal faults as penetration of an older, colder, and thicker crustal material
impeded fault growth. The proposed crustal transition between Archean-Paleoproterozoic
and juvenile Neoproterozoic has significant implications on basin formation and loading.

Figure 28. An Early Cretaceous schematic N-S cross-section of the Western Desert of Egypt
with detailed region to illustrate different thermal regimes.
The flexural rigidity and thermal conductivity of the individual types of crust would likely
be different and identification of distinctly different crust would provide greater insight
into Western Desert basin dynamics.

The cross-cutting relationship of the N-S vertical faults and rift-related normal
faults created localized areas of particularly deep burial of the lower Paleozoic. These
locations created greater accommodation space for deposition in the Carboniferous and
Mesozoic that have caused increased depths of burial of the lower Paleozoic stratigraphy.
The lower Paleozoic stratigraphy in these locations has likely been exposed to elevated
thermal gradients (T ~200 C) since the Jurassic relative to the surrounding region. Figure
28 illustrates areas of distinct thermal regimes in a schematic N-S cross-section reconstruction of the Early Cretaceous. The lower Paleozoic stratigraphy in the rest of the Western
Desert of Egypt has likely not been exposed to temperatures in excess of 170 C in the case
of the basal Lower Paleozoic Shifah formation and above 160 C for the Zeitoun, Basur,
and Kohla formations. The region continued to experience heavy sedimentation throughout the Mesozoic and has existed as a passive continental margin since the Late Jurassic.
Minor tectonic activity during the Cretaceous affected the eastern regions of the Western
Desert in the form of short-lived inversion events, particularly the Santonian Inversion.
Tectonic activity during that time may have caused thermal overprinting of DZHe ages
and fault block exhumation in areas outside the Cyrenaican strain shadow (Bosworth et al.,
2008).
8. Conclusion

The Western Desert of Egypt is the result of a complex tectonic and basin evolution
and is comprised of three tectono-thermally distinct basins. The complexity is obscured by

the deposition of thick Tertiary sedimentary sequences since the transition into a passive
continental margin and has limited exposure and exploration. In order to elucidate the
53
tectono-thermal evolution of the region, the use of DZHe dating in conjunction with heat
flow, well logs, and seismic data was employed to develop a spatiotemporal model for the
region. The Carboniferous and lower Paleozoic stratigraphic evolution were the focus of
this study, but examination of Mesozoic stratigraphy was crucial to construct a regionally
inclusive model.

The extensive use of DZHe ages has significantly assisted in the elucidation of
Egyptian margin and basin evolution. This study identified three distinct sedimentary basin sequences, each with an independent tectonic and thermal evolution. The lower Paleozoic sequence was deposited from the mid-Cambrian to Devonian and has been exposed
to temperatures of ~140-160 C with the basal lower Paleozoic having a slightly higher
thermal exposure of ~160-170 C. This sequence was also identified to have a distinct thermal evolution depending on the location of deposition relative to the large N-S basement
structures. Additionally, some locations have experienced particularly deep burial (~6-7
km) of the lower Paleozoic and exposure to thermal regimes of ~200 C. These locations
were identified based upon the structural relationship of N-S basement structures and Neotethyan rift related faulting that accommodated the stacking of the lower Paleozoic, Carboniferous, and Mesozoic stratigraphic sequences.

The Carboniferous basin sequence is temporally separated from the lower Paleozo-
ic by an unconformity that extended across all of northern Africa. During this Hercynian
orogeny, Egypt experienced reactivation of N-S striking basement structures that created
the eastern spatial boundary of the Carboniferous basin. The eastern sides of the N-S structures were uplifted and sediment was recycled from the uplifted lower Paleozoic strata and
deposited locally into the Carboniferous basin. This short lag time, locally derived detritus
assisted in the formation of the Carboniferous basin and the Carboniferous sequence is
currently experiencing at its thermal maximum of ~140 C. Deposition of this stratigraphic
package terminated by the earliest Permian as the region began to undergo a significant
54
shift in basin and margin tectonic evolution.

During the Permian through the Triassic the Egyptian continental margin began to
shift from an intracratonic basin to a rifted margin. The opening of the Neotethys resulted
in the formation of NE-SW striking normal faults that developed into substantial rift related basins. These basins were filled with locally-sourced synrift detritus from exhumed
fault blocks that overlaid Carboniferous and lower Paleozoic stratigraphy. The relatively
shallow burial of the Mesozoic strata have caused the strata to be exposed to temperatures
no greater than ~120 C. Deposition was uninterrupted throughout the Jurassic and Cretaceous with continued deposition throughout the Tertiary.

The relationship and attenuation of NE-SW striking rift related faults with N-S
trending basement structures in conjunction with heat flow data suggest that the N-S trending faults may delineate a location of crustal transition. The region west of these structures
are cooler than the eastern region. This would suggest that to the west of the N-S trending
faults exist an older, colder, and thicker continental crust that likely represents the regional extent of the Archean-Paleoproterozoic Saharan Metacraton; to the east likely lies the
warmer juvenile Pan-African Arabian-Nubian Shield. Attenuation of rift faults and segmentation of the crust by N-S trending faults reinforces the assertion that this is a location
of crustal transition between the Saharan Metacraton and Arabian-Nubian Shield.
