Depositional Environment and Organic Matter Enrichment of Early Cambrian Niutitang Black Shales in the Upper Yangtze Region, China

Natural gas generation is the result of organic matter degradation under the effects of biodegradation and thermal degradation. Early Cambrian black shales in the Upper Yangtze Region are rich in organic matter and have shown great shale gas potentiality in recent years. Nevertheless, the enrichment...
