This book offers a thorough examination of the Paleozoic units in southern Tunisia, presenting important new understandings. It explores several topics, including mineralogy, chemostratigraphy, petroleum systems, basin-scale geometry, structural contexts, and lithostratigraphy with which it presents lithostratigraphic distribution maps of the different paleozoic units in a regional context. It is considered an attempt to provide readers with a broad overview by combining several previously published works into a single delivery.Particular geological features and resources in southern Tunisia are explored in the book, including sediments from the Ordovician glacial period, anoxic episodes at various times, and oil and gas shale in unconventional reservoirs. The book seeks to offer academics, students, and geology enthusiasts a thorough resource on the Paleozoic geological history of southern Tunisia and its connection with North Africa. Furthermore, because it examines unconventional reservoirs and the existence of oil and gas shale resources in the area, professionals in the oil and gas industry will find the book pertinent. The book's conclusions and insights can be used as a starting point for additional studies and investigations in the area.

Dr Mohamed Soua's experiences have provided the background for his expertise in geological research, specifically chemostratigraphy and mineralogy. Working in the field for over 18 years has provided him with ample opportunity to hone his professional knowledge while working all around the world. He holds a PhD degree in the field of Geology from the University of Tunis-El Manar, Tunisia, while he started his professional career as an Exploration Geologist at "Entreprise Tunisienne d'Activités Pétrolières" (ETAP) from 2007 to 2012. After a brief period in academia as an Associate Professor in the Department of Geology at his alma mater, he joined Saudi Aramco in 2014 as a Chemostratigrapher and X-ray diffraction mineralogy specialist including clay mineralogy. Dr Soua is an editor for the Arabian Journal of Earth Sciences and the Journal of Open Transactions on Geosciences. He is a member of the American Association of Petroleum Geology (AAPG) and the International Centre for Diffraction Data (ICDD). He has published over 100 papers on diverse geological subjects.
