Introduction: The Tagish Lake meteorite is an ungrouped carbonaceous chondrite that contains a high amount of organic carbon (up to 2.6 wt%), most of which is insoluble in polar solvents [1]. Lithologically, the Tagish Lake meteorite is anything but homogeneous. Aside from the carbonate-rich and carbonate-poor lithologies described by [2], there exist matrix-rich and matrix poor lithologies as ...

A number of rivers have been found to transport highly aged organic matter [OM]; however, the sources of this aged material remain a matter of debate. One potential source may be erosion and weathering of headwater lithologies rich in ancient sedimentary OM. In this study, waters, suspended particulates, streambed sediments, rocks and soils from fourteen small headwater watersheds of a mid-size...

Introduction: The shergottite meteorites have been subdivided into three groups based on texture and mineralogy [1]. EETA79001 is a shergottite that contains examples of all three lithologies: lherzolitic (lithology X), olivine-phyric (lithology A), and basaltic (lithology B). Therefore, studying the magmas involved in the petrogenesis of EETA79001 may provide information not only on its own pe...

Predicting the lithology, lithofacies and reservoir fluid classes of igneous rocks holds significant value in domains CO2 storage evaluation. However, no precedent exists for research on multi-label identification rocks. This study proposes a data augmented cascade forest method prediction multilabel using 9 conventional logging features cores collected from eastern depression Liaohe Basin nort...

The nature of source rocks of basaltic magmas plays a fundamental role in understanding the composition, structure and evolution of the solid earth. However, identification of source lithology of basalts remains uncertainty. Using a parameterization of multi-decadal melting experiments on a variety of peridotite and pyroxenite, we show here that a parameter called FC3MS value (FeO/CaO-3*MgO/SiO...
