Deciphering depositional and diagenetic processes in marine systems by application of trace metal and isotope geochemistry
(2020-07)
While organic-rich shales have been extensively studied as petroleum source rocks, and more recently as unconventional petroleum reservoirs, there is still much that remains unknown about the complex sedimentary and ...
Analysis of the uranium to organic carbon relationship in the organic-rich Ohio Shale of eastern Kentucky
(2020-12)
Organic-rich shales have become increasingly important to unconventional petroleum reservoirs, and tools such as the gamma-ray have been used to locate them due to the radioactivity of elements such as uranium, potassium, ...
Using Cyclothemic Black Shales to Create a Proxy Calculation for Borehole Toc Estimates
(Oklahoma State University, 2011-07-01)
Black shales are important to the petroleum industry as both source rocks and subsurface marker beds. Black shales are enriched in trace metals, especially uranium (U), which is easily measured in outcrops and wells by ...
