Abstract

According to the analysis of sedimentary environment and geochemical characteristics of Ordovician Majiagou Formation in eastern Ordos Basin,it was considered that there mainly developed 2 types of dolomites,such as pene-contemporaneous dolomite and buried dolomite.The pene-contemporaneous dolomite always generated in strongly evaporated saltwater condition with the character of low order and fine crystal.Burial dolomite always generated in microscopic and half-saltwater conditions with high order coarse crystal and growth of inter-crystal pores and good reservoir property.It is a good reservoir in the studied area.
