Lithological and geochemical characteristics of graptolite schists Lower Silurian (Yangtze platform, China)

View through CrossRef
The main lithological rock types typical of the highest carbon part of the section of the Lonmasi formation of the Lower Silurian age of the Sichuan province of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) were identified and characterized. An analysis of the distribution of rare and trace elements in graptolite schists allowed us to suggest the redox conditions for the formation of high-carbon sediments.
