摘要	High-resolution seismic and borehole data were used to investigate the sedimentological characteristics of carbonate accumulations in the Pearl River Mouth Basin (PRMB) of the South China Sea. Based on seismic morphologies and petrologic analysis, three scale types of oligo-mesophotic ICBs were identified to have developed ephemerally in the early Early Miocene. The first ICB type is represented by small ICBs with lateral extension in the kilometer range, characterized by mounded geometry, complex internal architectures and a high-frequency alternation of carbonates and volcaniclastics. The second ICB type has lateral extensions of tens of kilometers and convex-up reflections, featuring obvious vertical thickening compared to the surrounding siliciclastic deposits. The third ICB type consist of extensive platforms with hundreds of kilometers of lateral extension, onlapped by surrounding siliciclastic deposits. The correlation of seismic and well data allows us to reconstruct the evolutionary history of the three types of ICBs in the PRMB: All the ICBs built by large benthic foraminifera and/or coralline algae biota, occurred on or around submarine topographic highs such as volcanic edifices or inherited from basement rises, developed under stable subsidence rates between 120 m/Myr and 180 m/Myr, and extinguished suddenly in the late Early Miocene with an abrupt decrease in the subsidence rate or a change from subsidence to tectonic uplift. It is proposed that post-rift subsidence of the study area controlled the evolution of the ICBs. Except for ICBs, mixed carbonate-siliciclastic deposits are identified in well succession, characterized by two types of mixing, namely, compositional mixing (core-plug scale) and strata mixing (stratigraphic scale). These mixed systems generated high-frequency alternations of carbonate, siliciclastic and/or mixed deposits sequence stratigraphy. This work reveals in detail the typical features of seismic morphologies, lithofacies, internal architectures and evolutionary mechanism of ICBs and mixed systems in the PRMB, and thus has implications for predicting reservoirs in hydrocarbon exploration and understanding carbonate sedimentology in a siliciclastic-dominated passive marginal basin.
