LITHOFACIES AND DEPOSITIONAL ENVIRONMENT OF VOLCANO-SEDIMENTARY DEPOSITS OF SE MAYO OULO BASIN [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Geoscience, 2013
The study of volcano-sedimentary deposits of Mangbai in SE Mayo Oulo basin-Cameroon leads to the identification of five major distinct lithofacies t ypes. From the coarset to the finest lithofacies, t here are: Gb-clast supported by massive coble and boulder, Gg-granule to massive gravel, Sm-massive sand, Shhorizontal layered sandstones, Fml-massive ...

Sedimentary molybdenum and uranium: Improving proxies for deoxygenation in coastal depositional environments

open access: yesChemical Geology, 2023
Sedimentary molybdenum (Mo) and uranium (U) enrichments are widely used to reconstruct changes in bottom water oxygen conditions in aquatic environments. Until now, most studies using Mo and U have focused on restricted suboxic-euxinic basins and continental margin oxygen minimum zones (OMZs), leaving mildly reducing and oxic (but eutrophic) coastal ...

A review on the provenance of the Voltaian Basin, Ghana: Implications for hydrocarbon prospectivity

open access: yesScientific African, 2022
The Voltaian Basin of Ghana has taken significance as a potential oil and gas basin. Since Ghana became a petroleum-producing country, every attempt is being made to understand the sedimentary basins within the country's territorial boundaries ...

Sedimentology and sequence stratigraphy of the mixed clastic-carbonate deposits in the Late Paleozoic icehouse period: A case study from the northern Qaidam Basin

open access: yesChina Geology, 2021
The widely-developed, mixed clastic-carbonate succession in the northern Qaidam Basin records the paleo-environment changes under the glacial activity during the Late Paleozoic icehouse period in the context of regional tectonic stability, however, the ...

Depositional environments as a framework for genetic classification of the basic criteria of petroleum potential

open access: yesGeoresursy
Most classifications of reservoirs, seals and source rocks based on the ability of the rock to generate, accumulate and preserve hydrocarbons, and the genesis of rocks is not always taken into account.

Late Quaternary sediments from Barakar-Damodar Basin, Eastern India include the 74 ka Toba ash and a 17 ka microlith toolkit

open access: yesJournal of Asian Earth Sciences: X, 2023
The Youngest Toba Tuff (YTT, 74 ka ago) is considered as the product of one of the largest super-volcanic events in the Quaternary period, which possibly caused a disastrous effect on the climate and hominid habitation.
