Controls on Neogene carbonate facies and stratigraphic architecture of an isolated carbonate platform – the Caribbean island of Bonaire
The Neogene carbonate succession on the island of Bonaire (Netherland Antilles) shows complex geometries associated with a sequence of depositional and erosional events which reflects the history of this isolated platform and the interaction between eustasy and tectonics. Three major episodes of carbonate platform deposition are defined which show contrasting depositional styles: 1) aggradational platform (Lower-Middle Miocene) with sediments showing a fining-upward trend from mixed coral rudstone to medium-grained coralgal grain/packstone, partly dolomitized and tilted by tectonic deformation...
