Mineral compositional controls on the porosity of black shales from the Wufeng and Longmaxi Formations (Southern Sichuan Basin and its surroundings) and insights into shale diagenesis

The effects of brittle minerals in shale diagenesis on shale pores remain controversial and it is difficult to quantify directly. However, the relationship between brittle minerals and shale pores could provide indirect guidance regarding diagenesis processes in post-mature marine shales. In this st...
