Chitinozoans from the Telychian (Llandovery, Silurian) Shenxuanyi Member, upper Ningqiang Formation of the northwestern Yangtze Platform, China [PDF]
Silurian strata are well-developed in the northwest margin of Yangtze Platform. A total of 117 densely spaced argillaceous samples were taken from the Shenxuanyi Member, upper Ningqiang Formation to the lowermost Chejiaba Formation of the Majia section ...

Boundary between the Porkuni and Juuru regional stages in the Neitla section, Estonia [PDF]
Conodonts and chitinozoans were studied from the Neitla section, which exposes the boundary between the Porkuni and Juuru regional stages. This level, although not proved biostratigraphically, has been traditionally considered to correspond to the ...

The detailed Middle to early Late Ordovician faunal succession and δ13Ccarbon chemistry of the Kårehamn drill core, offshore eastern Öland, Sweden: implications for stratigraphy and correlation [PDF]
The Middle to lower Upper Ordovician stratigraphy of the KÃ¥rehamn core, drilled ca 7 km offshore to the east of the KÃ¥rehamn village, northeastern Ãland, is presented. The investigated core is one of four drill cores obtained during the preparation of

The role of clay minerals in the preservation of Precambrian organic‐walled microfossils
Abstract Precambrian organic‐walled microfossils (OWMs) are primarily preserved in mudstones and shales that are low in total organic carbon (TOC). Recent work suggests that high TOC may hinder OWM preservation, perhaps because it interferes with chemical interactions involving certain clay minerals that inhibit the decay of microorganisms.

Abstract New δ34Spy (pyrite) and δ34SCAS (carbonate‐associated sulfate) across the Llandovery‐Wenlock boundary (∼432 Ma) provide evidence for the expansion of reduced marine environments during the Ireviken Biogeochemical Event. This event consists of a major positive carbon isotope excursion, increased biotic turnover, and other major perturbations ...

Abstract The Ordovician (Hirnantian; 445 Ma) hosts the second most severe mass extinction in Earth history, coinciding with Gondwanan glaciation and increased geochemical evidence for marine anoxia. It remains unclear whether cooling, expanded oxygen deficiency, or a combination drove the Late Ordovician Mass Extinction (LOME).

The Mora 001 and Solberga 1 drill cores provide the best available overview on the early Silurian (Llandovery, Rhuddanian to Telychian) graptolite succession available for the Siljan Ring impact structure of central Sweden. The Solberga 1 succession includes a nearly complete graptolite succession from the Pernerograptus revolutus Biozone (late ...

Latest Ordovician age of the Spinachitina fragilis Chitinozoan Biozone in Baltoscandia [PDF]
The global Spinachitina fragilis Chitinozoan Biozone has been considered the lowermost Silurian zone in most publications. S. fragilis was first described from the Ohesaare drill core, Estonia, and utilised as a Baltic regional zonal taxon together with ...

Organic pores play an important role in shale reservoirs. Organic pores occur where shale gas was produced and accumulated. However, there is little scientific understanding of the distribution and connectivity of organic pores. Organic pore types and their structural characteristics were studied using a total organic carbon (TOC), thin section ...
