The influence of thermal maturity on the stable isotope compositions and concentrations of molybdenum, zinc and cadmium in organic-rich marine mudrocks

Abstract:

The concentrations and isotopic compositions of molybdenum (Mo), zinc (Zn) and cadmium (Cd) in organic-rich marine mudrocks may be used to characterize ocean chemistry in the geological past. These approaches rely on the rarely tested assumption that the geochemical signatures of these metals are not affected by the thermal maturation of the organic matter with which they are associated. We have conducted a series of artificial maturation experiments on two well-known immature organic-rich mu...
