This study investigates immature sedimentary organic matter in the Lark Formation using 54 cuttings samples and one core sample collected from seven wells in the eastern North Sea Basin. Organic petrography and molecular geochemistry analyses were performed to determine the variations in the quantity and origin of allochthonous and autochthonous organic matter. Additionally, the study assesses the impact of climate fluctuations on marine productivity in the eastern North Sea Basin and land plant vegetation at the basin margins during the latest Eocene to the Middle Miocene.</div><div>The organic matter in the Lark Formation originated from mixed sources, primarily land plants, with a secondary contribution from marine algae. This is indicated by the maceral composition and the types and abundance of aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbon biomarker compounds. Moreover, the presence of diterpenoids (gymnosperm biomarkers) and non-hopanoid triterpenoids (angiosperm biomarkers) reveals that the allochthonous organic matter originated from conifers and angiosperms.</div><div>Climatic impacts on land plants and marine algae during the latest Eocene to the Middle Miocene are revealed by several parameters: the Averaged Chain Length (ACL) of land plant waxes, the proportion of coniferous contribution (C/(C + A)), and the whole rock volume percentages of huminite, inertinite (H + I, vol%) and liptinite (L, vol%). The shifts to cooler and drier climates highlighted the cold adaptation of onshore conifers and resulted in the input of higher molecular weight waxy components into the sediments. However, under these conditions, reduced precipitation and runoff resulted in lower amounts of terrigenous organic matter supplied to the basin. Additionally, the drop in water temperature and the warm-affinity of local algae assemblage led to reduced marine productivity. Together, these factors contributed to an overall decrease in organic richness. In contrast, during shifts to warmer and more humid climates, the trend reversed. The contribution of conifers to the floral assemblage diminished, but higher amounts of terrigenous organic matter were transported to the basin due to increased precipitation and runoff. This was accompanied by warmer water temperatures, boosting the productivity of organic-walled microplankton in the marine environment and contributing to greater organic richness.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":13864,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Coal Geology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":5.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142538559","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Middle-Upper Yangtze region in South China hosts voluminous gaseous hydrocarbons and MVT-type Zn<img>Pb deposits. Natural gases are mainly distributed in the Sichuan Basin, yet Zn<img>Pb deposits are found in surrounding regions of the basin. Such a unique distribution pattern implies that the interplay between metalliferous fluids and organic-rich sediments may be extensive in the boundary of these two types of deposits. A typical Ordovician/Silurian (Wufeng/Longmaxi formations) organic-rich black shale outcrop occurs in the eastern boundary of the Sichuan Basin. Pyrites are frequently distributed across this section, providing an ideal opportunity to investigate features of metalliferous fluids and their potential impacts on organic-rich sediments. Pyrites associated with high-angle carbonate veinlets are recognized in the studied area, and this group of pyrites (“Group 2”) commonly display planar-laminated morphologies, moderate δ<sup>34</sup>S values (0.78 ‰–8.86 ‰), and elevated trace metal contents (Ni, Pb, Mn, Mo, Tl, and REE) than those not associated with carbonate veinlets. These features suggest that this group of pyrites may be precipitated via local metalliferous fluid flows. Besides, pyrites with relatively lower trace metal contents can be further divided into two groups, including a group of euhedral/subhedral pyrites with more depleted δ<sup>34</sup>S values (−18.06 ‰ – -1.15 ‰; “Group 1”) and a group of planar-laminated/cubic pyrites with enriched δ<sup>34</sup>S values (10.55 ‰–37.62 ‰; “Group 3”). Pyrites of Group 1 and Group 3 may be formed via bacterial sulfate reduction (BSR) and thermochemical sulfate reduction (TSR), respectively. The discovery of fluid-related, trace-metal-enriched pyrites implies that fluid circulation within organic-rich black shales has the potential to remobilize, transport, and re-deposit trace metals. Besides, metalliferous fluid may also promote organic matter maturation within the Sichuan Basin. The outcomes of this study, combined with previous findings of metalliferous fluid flows in the center of the basin and Zn<img>Pb mineralization belts surrounding the basin, imply that a widespread Ediacaran-Palaeozoic fluid circulation system may exist in the Middle-Upper Yangtze region.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":13864,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Coal Geology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":5.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142446305","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Previous studies have shown that Li enrichment in coal and coal-bearing strata in Shanxi Province is generally evident in clay minerals and is related to mineral matter originating from nearby granite or bauxite and, in some cases, it is associated with hydrothermal fluid. Determining the exact sources of Li responsible for the Li enrichment in these coals is essential. This study investigated the spatiotemporal provenance of mineral matter evolution and source-to-sink system of No. 9 coal seam in the Anjialing Mine, Ningwu Coalfield, northeastern Shanxi Province, China. In total, 17 coal samples, six parting samples, one roof sample, and one floor sample from No. 9 coal seam were collected. Geochemical, mineralogical, and geochronological analyses were conducted using X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and Raman spectroscopy for minerals, inductively coupled plasma–optical emission spectroscopy (ICP–OES) for major-element oxides, inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometry (ICP–MS) for trace elements, and laser ablation–ICP–MS (LA–ICP–MS) for geochronology. The mineral matter in the coal samples consists mainly of kaolinite, boehmite, quartz, with varying proportions of calcite, pyrite, nacrite, anatase and goyazite, whereas in non-coal samples, the mineral matter is dominated by kaolinite, quartz, with minor amounts of anatase and pyrite. There are two heavy mineral assemblages: titanite–biotite–zircon–apatite and titanite–biotite–anatase–apatite. Relative to the elemental composition of the World hard coal, the coal benches are enriched in Li and Sr and slightly enriched in Ga, Zr, Hf, and Th. Relative to the elemental composition of the World clays, the parting samples in No. 9 coal seam are enriched in Li and slightly enriched in Mo, the roof sample is slightly enriched in Hf, and the floor sample is slightly enriched in Li and Hf. Detrital zircon ages in the roof and floor samples can be divided into two main ages: 2500–1700 and 326–293 Ma. The youngest U<img>Pb ages of zircon grain in the roof and floor samples are 292.7 ± 7.1 and 295.5 ± 9.7 Ma, respectively, indicating a well-constrained Early Asselian–Sakmarian stage. Detrital zircons, with ages of 326–293 Ma, in No. 9 coal seam are mainly derived from granitic intrusions and volcanic rocks in the Inner Mongolia Paleo-uplift (IMPU) rather than bauxite deposits.

Over the last few decades, the petrology of DOM has been used to characterize organic matter in sedimentary basins with an emphasis on fossil fuel resource exploration. Today, due to the global research shift on topics related to climate, organic petrology has expanded into new application areas, such as geothermal exploration, biological carbon storage (biochar), disposal, and management of radioactive waste.</p><p>From the publication of the International Handbook of Coal Petrology (mid-20th century) to the present day, a large number of standards, books, and articles have been published as a result of the work of organic petrographers and petrologists around the world and efforts of the International Committee for Coal and Organic Petrology (ICCP) and The Society for Organic Petrology (TSOP) to promote the study of organic petrology. The current fundamentals and standards of organic petrology provide the international scientific community with well-informed guidance and recommendations to promote in-depth research. However, this information is currently widely scattered, leading to discrepancies in methodology and terminology. Therefore, this paper aims to present a comprehensive review of the main analytical standard test methods and techniques currently used in the petrology of DOM under reflected white light and UV and blue-light excitation, and to provide an efficient and well-defined reference guide. Furthermore, considering the important role of the ICCP in the development of organic petrology since the 1950s, a brief review of the ongoing activities of ICCP dealing with DOM is also presented.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":13864,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Coal Geology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":5.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0166516224001617/pdfft?md5=f4901321602d1c6df3f0d32f4989b3ca&pid=1-s2.0-S0166516224001617-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142163708","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
