Stratigraphic sequence contrast and sequence stratigraphic framework are of great significance for the sedimentary phase and sedimentary systems of coal-accumulating basin. In the coal-bearing basin, the variation of the flooding surface controls the migration law of the coal-concentrating centres within the range. Therefore, the sequence comparison work is crucial to find favorable coal-collecting areas. In addition, studying the position of the coal seam in the sequence stratigraphic framework and carrying out the sequence comparison work in the lateral direction can effectively track the change of the position of the coal seam in the sequence stratum and summarize the law of coal seam accumulation and occurrence, which can be better to plan and guide the exploration and development of coal resources in Longdong coalfield.

Abstract. The results of micropalaeontological, nannopalaeontological and palynological analyses of Cenozoic sections from the Northern Sulaiman Ranges in Pakistan are discussed. They are in keeping with previously published results (though in some cases significantly more refined). They enable placement of most of the sampled lithostratigraphic units in a global bio- and sequence-stratigraphic framework. Limestones appear to be associated with essentially transgressive global sequences, shales with essentially regressive sequences. Palaeoenvironmental interpretations indicate a range of depositional settings from continental through shallow marine to basinal. A number of shallow marine carbonate platform sub-environments are recognized over the Palaeocene–Eocene section
