Geochemistry study of black shale in Barzewa and Warte Sections, Sargelu Formation, Kurdistan Region, Iraq
Keywords:
geochemistry, mineralogy, black shale, ultrasound, FTIR spectrumAbstract
Sargelu Formation (Middle Jurassic) is characterized by a wide geographical distribution in Iraq and neighboring countries. This study includes two sections Barzewa and Warte locations in Erbil Governorate of Kurdistan region, Iraq, the organic, inorganic Geochemistry and mineralogical properties were recorded. Fifteen samples of Sargelu Formation black shales were gathered from both locations. The source rocks of the black shales have an intermediate to felsic composition. The illite crystallinity index (IC) of the studied black shale shows the high anchizone stage. The organic geochemical parameters were analyzed in Sargelu Formation, the black shale contains type II - III kerogen. The average total organic carbon (TOC) of black shale for both section is 4.29 wt.%. By using the ultrasound homogenizer process the C-H bond (hydrocarbon component) of black shale recovered from the solid state to the liquid state.
