The mineralogy of the clayey-silty siliceous rocks in the Bazhenov Shale Formation (Upper Jurassic) in the west Siberian Basin, Russia: The role of diagenesis and possible implications for their exploitation as an unconventional hydrocarbon reservoir
文摘
First comprehensive study of Bazhenov Shale using XRD, SEM and TEM. Authigenic minerals are important and include mixed-layer I/S, kaolinite, calcite, dolomite, quartz and pyrite. Economic exploitation of shales could relate strongly to mineralogy.
