Silurian black shales of Western Ukraine: petrography and mineralogy [PDF]

open access: yesEstonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2017
Organic-rich Silurian black shale, stretching along the western margin of the East European Platform from the Baltic Sea to the Black Sea, represent a potential target for conventional and unconventional hydrocarbon exploration. In Western Ukraine, these

Newly discovered Botryococcus-rich source rocks in the western Qaidam Basin, NW China and their implications for shale oil exploration in saline lacustrine basins

open access: yesJournal of Natural Gas Geoscience, 2023
Owing to the high hydrocarbon content and photosynthetic efficiency of phytoplankton, planktonic microalgae account for the main source of petroleum hydrocarbons in marine and continental petroliferous basins. Therefore, the presence of algal residues in

Clay mineralogy and provenance modeling of the Paleoproterozoic Kaladgi shales, Dharwar Craton, Southern India: Implications on paleoweathering and source rock compositions

open access: yesGeosystems and Geoenvironment, 2023
Proterozoic clastic sediments reveal vast information regarding provenance, depositional conditions, and environmental evolutions. Peninsular India comprising Archean cratons, also have numerous intracratonic Proterozoic sedimentary basins along their ...

Induced polarization of clay-rich materials — Part 1: The effect of desiccation

open access: yesGeophysics, 2023
A petrophysical model describing spectral induced polarization has been developed for clay-rocks accounting for the Maxwell Wagner polarization. It is also used to connect the complex conductivity to the relative permeability of the material.

Mobility of organic compounds in a soft clay-rich rock (Tégulines clay, France)

open access: yesChemosphere, 2021
The migration of organic compounds in soils is a major concern in several environmental issues. Contaminants display distinct behaviours as regards to their specific affinities towards soils constituents. The retention mechanism of hydrophobic compounds by natural organic matter is well known.

Shallow Composition and Structure of the Upper Part of the Exhumed San Gabriel Fault, California: Implications for Fault Processes

open access: yesTektonika, 2023
Quantifying shallow fault zone structure and characteristics is critical for accurately modeling the complex mechanical behavior of earthquakes as energy moves within faults from depth.

ORIGIN AND DISTRIBUTION OF CLAY MINERALS IN THE MUDSTONES OF THE KOLOSH FORMATION INRAWANDOZ AREA, NORTHEASTERN IRAQ

open access: yesIraqi Geological Journal, 2018
The mudstone/ shale units constituted 60% of the Kolosh Formation of 170 m thickness, which were studied and the clay minerals were identified to conclude the origin and paleoclimate.

Provenance of clastic sediments: A case study from Cameroon, Central Africa

open access: yesSolid Earth Sciences, 2023
The provenance of clastic sediments in stream beds, river terraces, rivers, swamps, lakes and beaches from different geological settings was investigated based on their compositional and geochemical variations.
