Illite and hydrocarbon exploration [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1999
Illite is a general term for the dioctahedral mica-like clay mineral common in sedimentary rocks, especially shales. Illite is of interest to the petroleum industry because it can provide a K-Ar isotope date that constrains the timing of basin heating events.

Heat-Induced Pore Structure Evolution in the Triassic Chang 7 Shale, Ordos Basin, China: Experimental Simulation of In Situ Conversion Process

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
The reservoir properties of low–medium-maturity shale undergo complex changes during the in situ conversion process (ICP). The experiments were performed at high temperature (up to 450 °C), high pressure (30 MPa), and a low heating rate (0.4 °C/h) on low–
