Stratigraphic correlation and provenance study of exposed Eocene - Oligocene sedimentary sequences in southern Nigeria using high-resolution heavy minerals and garnet geochemical analyses

Provenance and stratigraphic correlations across the exposed Eocene-Miocene sedimentary sequences of southern Nigeria that exhibit similar lithologies and are biostratigraphically-barren have been carried out. Heavy mineral assemblages in the 63–250 μm sand fractions of 43 sediment samples across th...
