Integrated petrographic and chemostratigraphic studies have enabled the identification of sequence boundaries, sequence stratigraphy, and their system tracts for the Lower Cretaceous strata of the Kurnub Group (Jordan); the latter is underlain by the Jurassic (Callovian) strata and overlain by the Cretaceous (Cenomanian). Based on physical characteristics (sharp vertical facies changes) and geochemical parameters (SiO₂/Al₂O_3, K₂O/Al₂O_3, TiO₂/Al₂O_3, Sr/Ca millimoles per mole, Mn parts per million, and the minor elements), 4 sequence boundaries are identified, associated with 11 facies types (from alluvial plain to the intertidal environment) and 9 system tracts, thus enabling the identification of record Lower Cretaceous sea-level fluctuations. The identified sequences mirror the Arabian plate sequences and suggest a eustatic origin. The siliciclastic Kurnub Group was derived mainly from felsic granite–gneiss and metasedimentary rocks (Arabian shield) and was deposited in a passive continental margin setting under semiarid-to-humid climatic conditions.
