Black shale deposition during Toarcian super-greenhouse driven by sea level [PDF]

open access: yesClimate of the Past, 2013
One of the most elusive aspects of the Toarcian oceanic anoxic event (T-OAE) is the paradox between carbon isotopes that indicate intense global primary productivity and organic carbon burial at a global scale, and the delayed expression of anoxia in ...

Composition and pore characteristics of black shales from the Ediacaran Lantian Formation in the Yangtze Block, South China

open access: yes, 2016
The Ediacaran period was critical in the evolution of the biosphere and ocean in the history of the Earth. Shales rich in organic matter (OM) are well developed for this period in the Yangtze Block, China, and have recently been related to shale gas ...

Solar Fuels Via Methane Valorization: Thermochemical Pathways, Unified Metrics, and Techno‐Economic Perspectives

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A first‐of‐its‐kind review benchmarks three solar methane valorization pathways with unified performance metrics for clean fuel production. Meeting global climate targets and sustainable energy demands requires carbon‐neutral fuels and innovative conversion pathways.

Evidence From Microscopy and U–Pb Geochronology as a Clue to the Influence of the Cretaceous Magmatism in the Diagenesis of Pre‐Salt Carbonate Reservoirs in the Santos Basin (Brazil)

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
Carbonates from Santos Basin revealed U–Pb ages correlated with basalt ages (A), suggesting that they were formed during magmatic events. These events placed hot CO2 in the reservoir, which, when mixed with carbonate‐rich cold water (B), led to thermal convection, enabling the formation of the U contained in the carbonates.

Geochemistry and Geochronology of Magmatic Rocks in Southwestern and Northeastern Cambodia: Implications for the Tectonic Evolution and Metallogenesis of the Loei Fold Belt

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
The composition of intrusive rocks suggests that the magma was likely generated in a subduction‐related setting. The arc crustal thickness in the Phnom Sro Ngam and Halo Prospects was probably < 40 km during emplacement. Zircon U–Pb age range indicates a correlation with Loei Fold Belt magmatic activity.

Organic geochemistry of Cretaceous black shales

open access: yes, 1988
Organic-carbon-rich 'black shales' and adjacent organic-carbon-poor rocks from three different Cretaceous settings encountered during ODP Leg 103 have been studied by organic geochemical methods.

The relationship between cellular protein content and selenium accumulation in freshwater microalgae

open access: yesIntegrated Environmental Assessment and Management, EarlyView.
Abstract Variability in the bioconcentration of selenium (Se) by primary producers at the base of the food web results in uncertainty in predictions of bioaccumulation and ecological risk to higher trophic level organisms. Water chemistry, speciation of Se, and periphyton community composition have all been suggested as factors that contribute to ...

Depositional environment of shales and enrichment of organic matters of the Lower Cambrian Niutitang Formation in the Upper Yangtze Region

open access: yesNatural Gas Industry B, 2021
The Niutitang Formation in the Upper Yangtze Region comprises a set of the Early Cambrian black shales containing abundant organic matter. We investigated the relationship between the depositional environment and organic matter enrichment based on core ...

Environmental impact of mineralised black shales

open access: yes, 2020
Black shales are sedimentary rocks containing >0.5% of organic carbon. They host polymetallic deposits which have been mined for Cu, Ni, Zn, Mn, P, Mo, V, U, Au and PGE (platinum group elements).

Deglaciation of the Burren glacio‐karst, western Ireland, during Termination 1: Implications for North Atlantic climate and karstification

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The Burren uplands in western Ireland form one of the most extensive and best‐preserved examples of glacio‐karst in Europe. Subsumed by the Irish ice sheet during the Late Pleistocene, granite erratic boulders and in situ silica veins in the limestone bedrock provide a rare opportunity to reconstruct the timing and rate of deglaciation ...
