Based on the field investigation of oil shales in the southern Ordos Basin, detailed
observations, and systematic sample analyses of core samples from a well that penetrated …

Raman spectroscopy is a nondestructive and in situ analytical technique that could provide
information on the chemical structure and structural ordering of carbonaceous materials …

We review and refine the geological setting of an area located nearby the Tyrrhenian
seacoast, in the inner zone of the Northern Apennines (southern Tuscany), where a …

Wedge-top basins can provide highly sensitive information on the uplift and erosion history
of an evolving collisional belt, but their burial and thermal history has generally been …

Abstract The Wufeng-Longmaxi marine shale of the Upper Ordovician (O 3 w)-Lower
Silurian (S 1 l) is the main source rock and target for shale gas exploration in Sichuan Basin …

We present a study of pressure and temperature evolution in the passive continental margin
under the Oman Ophiolite using numerical basin models calibrated with thermal maturity …

To refine the use of graptolite and solid bitumen as thermal proxies at overmature
conditions, we evaluated their evolution via Raman and infrared (IR) spectroscopies …

Temperature-dependent clay minerals and vitrinite reflectance data, surface and subsurface
geological constraints were used to unravel the burial evolution of the Ordovician …

This study focuses on the thermal maturity of Permian deposits from the Zagros Basin,
Southwest Iran, employing both optical methods (Thermal Alteration Index, Palynomorph …

Abstract The Wufeng-Longmaxi (WL) shale is widely distributed in the Sichuan Basin and
adjacent areas in southwest China. The basin experienced multiple-stage complex tectonic …
