Provenance and weathering conditions of the Moloundou swamp sediments, southeast Cameroon: Evidence from mineralogy and geochemistry

This work reports the mineralogical and geochemical characterization of the Moloundou swamp sediments in order to deduce their tectonic setting, source rock composition, weathering conditions and maturity. These sediments show sandy to loamy sand in nature; they are pale olive to greenish and contai...
