Paleoenvironment and Organic Matter Accumulation of the Upper Ordovician-Lower Silurian, in Upper Yangtze Region, South China: Constraints from Multiple Geochemical Proxies

Energies, 2020
The origin of the organic-rich shale in the Upper Ordovician Wufeng Formation and Lower Silurian Longmaxi Formation is complex and controversial. This paper reports the geochemical data of Wufeng-Longmaxi Formations in the Upper Yangtze region to restore

Microscopic Pore Structure Characteristics and Genesis of Low Resistivity Reservoirs: A Case Study of the Wufeng and Longmaxi Formations in the Changning Area, Sichuan Basin

Energy Science &Engineering, Volume 13, Issue 12, Page 5910-5923, December 2025.
1. Organic matter graphitization forms highly conductive carbon networks, significantly reducing shale resistivity. 2. Major and trace elements further enhance conductivity through electron transfer and electrochemical reactions. ABSTRACT This study investigates the micro‐pore structure characteristics and genesis of low‐resistivity reservoirs in the ...

Exploring the Effects of Hydraulic Fracturing on the 2019 Mw 5.0 Weiyuan Earthquake in Sichuan, China

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract The seismicity inside the Sichuan Basin in southwest China has been dramatically intensified with the increase of shale gas exploitation recently. On 8 September 2019, an MW 5.0 earthquake struck Weiyuan County in the Sichuan Basin, representing the largest earthquake in the Weiyuan shale gas field.

Effects of Periodic Normal Stress Oscillations on Frictional Properties of Simulated Natural Fault Gouges Under In Situ P‐T Conditions

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 8, 28 April 2025.
Abstract Induced earthquakes are occasionally associated with stress oscillations resulting from periodic industrial activities. Yet, the effects of stress oscillations on fault friction under realistic subsurface conditions are not fully clear. We conducted normal stress oscillations experiments using simulated fault gouges derived from the major ...

Palaeoenvironmental Evolution Based on Elemental Geochemistry of the Wufeng-Longmaxi Shales in Western Hubei, Middle Yangtze, China

, 2023
The organic-rich shales found in the Wufeng–Longmaxi Formation are typically deposited in oxygen-deficient reducing environments. One of the primary sources of debate revolves around the question of whether the anoxic bottom water found in these ...

Multi‐Criterion Stability Evaluation and Surface Boundary Method for Slopes

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Slope failure generally starts from a single point, where a local failure surface forms, and then progresses to the overall failure. Based on this behavior, this paper proposes a multi‐criterion stability evaluation approach for describing progressive failure process of slope.
