This study investigates the calcareous nannofossil assemblage and composition of 62 field samples collected from a calcareous sedimentary sequence exposed in Mamburao, Occidental Mindoro, Philippines. The sequence consisting of foraminifera-rich, alternating beds of mudstones and fine- to medium-grained sandstones was subjected to stratigraphic log...
