چکیده

Paleontological sites and fossil discoveries are types of geosites that have a high potential to be introduced as paleontological tourism sites and can be defined as geological tourism and places of geological heritage value.  One of the exciting places is Soltanieh Formation which is an opportunity for those interested in geological history to visit. The lower and upper shale members of the Soltanieh Formation in Garmab region, due to the presence of various trace fossils such as the Teriptichnus Pedum index Ichnofossil is considered one of the paleontological sites with high potential for tourism in Central Alborz also, the spectacular exposure of the Precambrian sediments on the Cenozoic sediments by the operation of the Mosha fault has added to the value of this site. This site is an open-air paleontological site that should be subject to earth protection measures.  In Iran, Geological Survey and Mineral Explorations of Iran (GSI), has a high potential to preserve Iran’s geological heritage, which can have a practical activity in this basin.
