During rapid global warming 56 million years ago, tropical sea surface temperatures exceeded 36°C and stressed eukaryotic plankton.
Abstract Spatial predictive mapping using geographic information system (GIS) is considered an invaluable tool for reconnaissance-scale exploration of mineral resources. In this study, geospatial data on geophysics, remote sensing, and structural lithological attributes were systematically integrated to prospect barite potential zones within the Mid-Nigerian Benue Trough (MBT). Correlation attribute evaluation was used establish relationship between deposit occurrences data, while...
Drilled core samples of the Araromi Formation in eastern Dahomey basin penetrated by and Gbekebo exploratory wells were investigated to establish source rocks potentials onshore area basin. The sediments are Maastrichtian age deposited shallow marine environment with varying thicknesses.Rock-Eval data forty seven (40) shales give Total Organic Carbon (TOC) range 0.50–4.78 wt%, Hydrogen Index (HI) value 1 - 327mgHC/gTOC, Tmax values from 398 °C–437 °C Source Potential (SP) 0.01 14.56kgHC/ton...
Abstract The Benue Trough formed in close relation to the opening of South Atlantic and experienced sea-level fluctuations different magnitudes during Cenomanian Coniacian interval. We identify depositional environments from outcrop sections a drilling as control record. Lines evidence for interpretation include facies analyses, foraminiferal assemblage composition (P/B-ratio) presence planktonic deep-water indicators. While analysis well data Dahomey Basin indicates continuous (bathyal)...
This paper focuses on investigating the paleoenvironments and hydrocarbon generation potentials of outcropping Eocene Bende-Ameki Formation at Ogbunike quarry, Anambra Basin southeastern Nigeria, which is Niger Delta Agbada subsurface equivalent. The fine to coarse sandstones interbedded with parallel laminated grey, coaly shales, bioturbated claystones were dominant rock facies. shales contain Ammobaculities, Ammontium, lenticulina, Reophax benthic foraminifera brackish outer shelf...
Shales belonging to the Oshosun Formation exposed at Sagamu quarry of West African Portland Cement have been mapped and assessed for their abundances in rare earth elements (REE). The shale thickness, which measures approximately 15m overlies Ewekoro is separated by a very thin bed glauconite. shales are grey dark well laminated. Preliminary investigation selected samples shows average composition values: La (43.12), Ce (97.20), Nd (38.60), Sm (7.00), Eu (1.80), Tb (1.03), Yb (2.74), Lu...
The Maastrichtian–Eocene sediments (mainly shales and limestones) penetrated by the Itori borehole Ilaro boreholes in Dahomey Basin were investigated for foraminiferal biostratigraphy palaeoecological interpretation. These Araromi, Ewekoro, Oshosun formations at varying depths. Selected shale subjected to analysis many planktonic benthic species of foraminifera (agglutinated calcareous) recovered from Cretaceous interval boreholes. Twelve planktic (Globalomalina planocompressa, G....
