Only few Palaeozoic surface exposures exist in Egypt which makes a careful and detailed study of the existing ones even more important. The Palaeozoic of North Africa and Arabia is characterized by various, important, interregional geological events and hosts important mineral and hydrocarbon resources. A better understanding of the Palaeozoic depositional history of Egypt and its integration with the sedimentary events in neighbouring areas is necessary to allow refined predictions about the lateral and vertical distribution of economically important lithologies. This is book presents lithological and facies data from the Upper Palaeozoic on the western side of the Gulf of Suez. Based on two selected outcrop sections and a review of existing, published data, a high-resolution sequence stratigraphic model is presented
