A Late Ordovician to middle Wenlockian graptolite sequence from a borehole within the Rathkenny Tract, eastern Ireland, and its relation to the paleogeography of the Iapetus Ocean

open access: yes, 1994
A borehole drilled within the Rathkenny Tract, southwest of Navan, eastern Ireland, yielded a rich graptolite fauna, including three excellent basal Silurian graptolite assemblages, from a deep-water, pelagic and hemipelagic sequence, ranging in age ...

ESTONIAN GRAPTOLITE ARGILLITES REVISITED: A FUTURE RESOURCE?

open access: yes, 2014
The occurrence of Cambrian to Ordovician organic-rich black shale deposits has been known in Baltoscandia, including Estonia, for a long time. The Estonian graptolite argillite (GA) shows high to very high con- centrations of U (800 ppm), Mo (1000 ppm ...

The Silurian graptolite zonation of China

open access: yes, 1984
China is divided into five Silurian stratigraphic regions on the basis of biostratigraphy and lithostratigraphy. These regions are: Zhungar–Xingan region, Northwest China region, Xizang (Tibet) – western Yunnan region, Yangtze region, and the South ...

Wenlockian graptolite reference section, Clearwater Creek, Nahanni National Park, Northwest Territories, Canada

open access: yes, 1980
A sequence of 20 m of Wenlockian graptolite-bearing strata is described from southern Northwest Territories. The sequence is relatively rich in graptolites and represents the best Wenlockian graptolite interval yet known in the Canadian Cordillera, even

Research progress and challenges in thermal maturity evalution of Lower Paleozoic source rocks

open access: yesShiyou shiyan dizhi
Marine source rocks in China's Lower Paleozoic are predominantly in the highly to over-mature stage. The lack of vitrinite in these strata has made thermal maturity evaluation a persistent technical challenge in deep hydrocarbon exploration.

The Ordovician–Silurian boundary, northern Canadian Cordillera: graptolite and conodont correlation

open access: yes, 1982
The Upper Ordovician graptolite facies of the northern Canadian Cordillera is divided into two biostratigraphic units, the Dicellograptus ornatus Zone and the Pacificograptus pacificus Zone. Interbedded limestone yielded conodont Fauna 12. The uppermost

Integrated Upper Ordovician graptolite-chitinozoan biostratigraphy ofthe Cardigan and Whitland areas, southwest Wales

open access: yes, 2008
To help calibrate the emerging Upper Ordovician chitinozoan biozonation with the graptolite biozonation in the Anglo-Welsh, historical type basin, the graptolite-bearing Caradoc–Ashgill successions between Fishguard and Cardigan, and at Whitland, SW ...
