Major and Trace Element Geochemistry of the European Kupferschiefer – An Evaluation of Analytical Techniques
2018
Simple and rapid techniques are needed for routine quantitative chemical bulk-rock analyses of Kupferschiefer, a black shale containing variable amounts of silicates, base metal sulphides, carbonates and an organic content of up to 30 weight percent. In this study, WD-XRF, TXRF, and ICP-OES of acid- as well as peroxide-digested samples were tested as potential techniques based on their availability and adaptability to analyse major (Si, Ti, Al, Mg, Ca, Fe, K, but also Cu, Zn, Pb) and selected trace (Ag, As, Ba, Co, Mo, Ni, V) element concentrations. Because of the absence of a suitable reference material, a comparative study was undertaken using instrumental neutron activation analysis to a…
Geochimica e petrografica di black shales del Livello Bonarelli, sezione di Novara di Sicilia (Monte Peloritani), Sicilicia nord-orientale: Implicazi…
2000
Black shales ad alto potenziale petrolifero, alternati ritmicamente a marne e argilliti, affiorano in associazione con Argille Varicolori (Cretaceo-Paleogene) nei pressi di Novara di Sicilia (Monti Peloritani, Sicilia nord-orientale) costituendo l’espressione sedimentaria di un evento anossico con diffusione globale (OAE2), riferibile al Cenomaniano superiore. I depositi corrispondenti a tale evento sono individuati come “Livello Bonarelli”. In detta successione, le alternanze black shales-marne-argilliti si estendono per uno spessore di circa 11 metri passando verso il basso ad alternanze irregolari di calcari marnosi, marne chiare, marne scure, argilliti e calcareniti (spessore ca. 9 m) c…
Identification of metalloporphyrins extracted from the copper bearing black shale of fore sudetic monocline (Poland)
2006
Abstract Metalloporphyrins were isolated from copper-bearing black shale ores. The shale originates from the Lubin copper mine (Poland). The porphyrins have been extracted by way of a Soxhlet apparatus, and then purified using column chromatography. In order to identify the extracted porphyrins complexes UV–Vis, mass spectrometry and EPR analytical techniques have been used.
