Comment: I'm inclined to believe this is a real thing that deserves an article. However, the way it is written and its sourcing both contain issues. To source the claim that the subject was first identified and named in 1990 requires a secondary source saying that, rather than just a paper which uses the term (regardless of whether it is indeed the first such usage; see WP:NOR for more details). Additionally, there are substantial enough MOS issues in such a brief draft stub that I would not feel comfortable approving it in this state. Pbritti (talk) 16:02, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
Ocean Plate Stratigraphy is a term that refers to the sequence of volcanic and sedimentary rocks forming the upper part of the oceanic lithospheric plate[1][2]. This term was introduced by Japanese geologists in 1990 (originally as Oceanic Plate Stratigraphy)[1][3]. The rocks present in the Ocean Plate Stratigraphy vary slightly depending on the geological period of their formation. The Phanerozoic Ocean Plate Stratigraphy typically contains, from the bottom to the top, pillow lavas, a thick sequence of pelagic bedded chert and carbonates, hemipelagic shales and mudstones, all of which are covered by sedimentary rocks of turbidity currents[2][3]. In contrast, the Precambrian Ocean Plate Stratigraphy contains a significantly thinner layer of chert, which is supplemented or replaced by banded iron formations in the Paleoproterozoic and Archean sequences[2][4].
