Marls are carbonate-bearing pelitic sediments covering a large range of composition between “impure” carbonate rocks and “true” pelites. In the Anglo-American literature, this group of sedimentary rocks is better known as argillaceous carbonate rocks, calcareous sediments, calcic pelitic rocks, or calcpelites. The sediments are widespread and typical of shelf and platform areas.
