Organic petrography and trace element geochemistry of organic black shales in the Kribi Campo sub-Basin, West Africa: Implication for petroleum source rock evaluation and depositional environment

Organic petrography and trace element geochemistry of organic black shales in the Kribi Campo sub-Basin, West Africa: Implication for petroleum source rock evaluation and depositional environment

The aim of this study was to characterise the maceral properties, depositional environment and petroleum source rock properties of black shales deposits of the lower Mundeck Formation of the Douala Kribi Campo sub-basin from organic petrography and trace element geochemical studies. The study showed...
