Geochemistry and organic petrology of the bituminite shales from the Kapurdi mine, Rajasthan of NW India: implications for waxy oil generation potential

Abstract This study examines the geochemical and petrographic characteristics of seven bituminite shales from the Kapurdi mine in the Rajasthan, NW India, in order to assess their organic matter inputs and evaluate the oil-prone potentials. These bituminite shale samples exhibit high total organic c...
