Based on the palaeogeographic reconstruction and interpretation, and geochemical analyses, it is believed that mature shales and coals of the Eocene sequence become the major source rocks for hydrocarbon accumulation in the Paleogene reservoirs and may also include the Neogene sequence.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
