Lithofacies Classification

Lithofacies Classification is the systematic categorization of rock units into distinct lithofacies based on diagnostic geological attributes, distinguishing it from other reservoir zoning methods by its focus on sedimentological coherence and depositional environment interpretation within the context of Rock Typing and Seismic Reservoir Characterization.
