The thermal maturity of lower Paleozoic graptolite-bearing marine sediments, which host
many hydrocarbon deposits worldwide, has long been difficult to determine due to the …

Lower Cambrian successions described from Scandinavia are reviewed and subjected to
sequence stratigraphical analysis; comparisons are also made with successions described …

High-pressure methane sorption isotherms were measured on selected Paleozoic and
Mesozoic organic-rich shales, considered as shale gas targets in Europe. The samples …

This contribution presents results from a laboratory study investigating the fluid (gas/water)
transport properties in the matrix system of the Scandinavian Alum Shale. The maturity of the …

Abstract The overmature Precambrian to Lower Paleozoic marine shales from China contain
relatively simple organic matter (OM) composition, which is dominated by in-source solid …

The pre-Devonian shales are important natural archives, preserving extensive information
on paleobiology, paleoenvironment, and paleoecology, and also acting as important …

Abstract The Ordovician of Scandinavia (ie Denmark, Norway and Sweden) has been
investigated for over two centuries and, through time, various chronostratigraphic schemes …

We report evidence for Milankovitch cycles in two drill cores from the Cambro–Ordovician
Alum Shale Formation of Scandinavia. The signal is preserved in elemental abundances …

Graptolite reflectance was thought to be one of the most useful thermal maturity indicators for
graptolite-bearing sediments, however, the relationship between graptolite reflectance and …

Examining vanadium (V) geochemistry in organic-rich rocks might provide new insights into
the redox evolution of paleo ocean and atmosphere through Earth's history. Previous work …
