Trace element geochemistry of kerogens from the central Niger Delta

Abstract Trace elements in kerogens isolated from shale samples obtained from oil wells in the central Niger Delta were determined using atomic absorption spectrometry, with the aim to determine the depositional environment and source of the organic matter. The results showed that the concentrations...
