With the targets of petroleum exploration transferred to the deep and ancient strata, abundant oil and gas resources have been found in Lower Paleozoic and older strata in central and western China. Due to complex evolutionary processes including multiple episodes of hydrocarbon accumulation and ubiquitously accompanied by secondary alterations ...

High-precision radiocarbon dating of the construction phase of Oakbank Crannog, Loch Tay, Perthshire [PDF]
Many of the Loch Tay crannogs were built in the Early Iron Age and so calibration of the radiocarbon ages produces very broad calendar age ranges due to the well-documented Hallstatt plateau in the calibration curve. However, the large oak timbers that

Uranium-Lead dating of hominid fossil sites in South Africa [PDF]
Discoveries of hominid, or apeman, fossils in the twentieth century have brought human evolution into the scientific spotlight. It is important that ages are assigned to such hominids so that their place in human evolution can be established.

Re‐Os isotope systematics in carbonates from Serpent Mound, Ohio: Implications for Re‐Os dating of crustal rocks and the osmium isotopic composition of Ordovician seawater [PDF]
Eleven core samples of Ordovician carbonates and shale from within and nearby the Serpent Mound (Ohio) cryptoexplosion structure were analyzed for Re‐Os isotopes. Whole‐rock samples span a large range in measured 187Os/188Os (0.714 to 6.083), and exhibit a linear correlation of 187Os/188Os with 187Re/188Os.

A Review of Research Progress on Re-Os Isotopic System of Carbon-enriched Geological Samples
Re and Os are relatively enriched in organic-enriched sedimentary rocks under an anoxic environment due to their organophilic property, and the seawater Os isotopic composition is recorded during the deposition of sedimentary rocks.

South China developed large-scale Mesozoic magmatism and polymetallic mineralization, especially Jurassic W-Sn and Mo-W mineralization. Compared with W-Sn deposits, Mo-W deposits in South China have received less attention.

Re-Os geochronology for sulfides and organic-rich sediments. [PDF]
Rhenium and osmium are both siderophilic and chalcophilic, exhibiting a strong affinity for organic-rich materials. This makes the Re-Os chronometer a valuable complement to geochronometers based on lithophile elements.
