Thermal maturity modelling was carried out in over sixty wells along the SW margin of East European Craton (EEC). The burial and thermal history EEC, using thermochronological data, allowed construction maps showing its geological development Phanerozoic. These results have proved that Ordovician Silurian source rocks occurring at EEC reached a maximum palaeotemperature Palaeozoic, mainly during Devonian–Carboniferous time latest most westerly part this margin, Teisseyre-Tornquist Zone. In...

The contain information concerning plate tectonics and palaeoenvironment during Cambrian, Ordovician, Silurian, Devonian Carboniferous. East European Craton belonged to Palaeozoic Baltica Plate, which originated as a result of disintegration supercontinent Pannotia early Cambrian. included part Poland adjacent areas northeast line that extends between Scania Black Sea. This was located Southern...

Abstract The Intra-Sudetic Basin, a ~ 12 km deep Variscan intramontane basin, has the best preserved post-orogenic sedimentary record available at NE margin of Bohemian Massif. Apatite fission track (AFT) analyses have been performed on 16 and volcanic samples Carboniferous to Cretaceous age from Basin improve understanding post-Variscan thermal evolution. AFT central ages range 50.1 ± 8.8 89.1 7.1 Ma (Early Eocene Coniacian), with 13 them being Late Cretaceous. mean length values 12.5 0.4...

Three-dimensional, structural and parametric numerical modelling was applied to unravel the unconventional hydrocarbon potential of a W-dipping, Lower Palaeozoic mudrock succession, which subcrops for some 700 km in Baltic, Podlasie Lublin basins across SW margin East European Craton Poland. Input data comprised thickness maps Ordovician Silurian strata results thermal maturity (mean vitrinite-equivalent reflectance, % Ro) total organic carbon (TOC, wt.) modelling. A new, spatial...

Abstract The low‐temperature thermal history of the Holy Cross Mountains ( HCM ) is investigated by apatite fission track and zircon (U–Th)/He thermochronology. Our results provide constraints on deformation Palaeozoic basement rocks in transition area from Precambrian to Europe that are exposed beneath Permian–Mesozoic sediments within . Late post‐Variscan cooling strata maximum temperatures shown be a major feature This likely followed heating event related burial and/or hot fluid...

In this work, 1-D numerical modelling of petroleum generation and expulsion processes in the Upper Ordovician Lower Silurian source rocks was carried out over sixty wells along SW margin East European Craton ( EEC) Poland. Palaeozoic sediments were subjected to rapid burial then uplifted several phases, but with predominance late Variscan tectonic inversion. The thermal maturity organic matter strata indicates advancement from phase low-temperature thermogenic NE part Baltic Podlasie-Lublin...

Abstract. The Phanerozoic tectonothermal evolution of the SW slope East European Platform (EEP) in Poland is reconstructed by means thermal maturity, low-temperature thermochronometry, and modelling. We provide a set new thermochronometric data integrate stratigraphic maturity information to constrain burial history sediments. Apatite fission track (AFT) analysis zircon (U-Th)/He (ZHe) thermochronology have been carried out on samples sandstones, bentonites, diabase, crystalline basement...

The concentration of critical elements, including such REE as Fe, Co, W, Zn, Cr, Ni, V, Mn, Ti, Ag, Ga, Ta, Sr, Li, and Cu, in the so-called fly ash obtained from 9 Polish power plants 1 thermal station has been determined. values, compared with global average bituminous coal sedimentary rocks (Clarke values), have shown that enrichment specified elements takes place only a few processing sites Poland. factor (EF) is slightly higher (the same order magnitude) than Clarke values. relation to...

Apatite fission track (AFT) central ages from Carboniferous (Stephanian) tonsteins of the Sabero Coalfield, NW Spain, range 140.8 ± 7.5 to 65.8 8.1 Ma (Cretaceous), with mean c-axis projected length values ranging 12.5 13.4 μm. Mean random vitrinite reflectance (R r) these samples ranges 0.91 1.20 %, which can be translated into maximum palaeotemperatures ca. 130 180 °C. All analysed experienced substantial post-depositional annealing. The considerably younger AFT compared depositional and R...

Hydrocarbon exploration under thrust belts is a challenging frontier globally. In this work, 1-D thermal maturity modeling of the Paleozoic–Mesozoic basement in northern margin Western Outer Carpathians was carried out to better explain history source rocks that influenced hydrocarbon generation. The combination Variscan burial and post-Variscan heating due elevated heat flow may have caused significant Paleozoic pre-Middle Jurassic period. However, most likely combined effect...

The Lower Paleozoic basins of eastern Poland have recently been the focus intensive exploration for shale gas. In Lublin Basin potential unconventional play is related to Silurian source rocks. order assess petroleum charge history these gas reservoirs, 1-D maturity modeling has performed. Łopiennik IG-1 well, which only well that penetrated strata in study area, uniform vitrinite reflectance values within section are interpreted as being mainly result higher heat flow Late Carboniferous...
