Title: Discriminating bottom current and gravity flow deposits in a Middle and Upper Jurassic carbonate slope of the Majorca Island
Abstract: The slope carbonate facies of the Lower Callovian and Kimmeridgian of the Majorca Island include mounded shape bioclastic and well-bedded laminated units with dominant pelagic components, which growth inthe toe of the carbonate slope. Carbonate slope facies are mainly dominated by carbonate debris sheets with slope and shallow platform components, mainly oolites, in the Lower Callovian and by aggradational mudstones with slumps in the Kimmeridgian.
