Paleoclimate characteristics of source area weathering and metallogenic implication of cretaceous black shales in the Mamfe basin, (SW Cameroon): Evidence from lithogeochemistry

Black shales are highly enriched in essential elements containing critical information on metallic richness and paleoclimatic imprints during deposition. The Cretaceous period marks the age of Basin formation from which the Mamfe Basin was formed from the Albian to Cenomanian. The purpose of this st...
