Microdroplets initiate organic-inorganic interactions and mass transfer in thermal hydrous geosystems (2024)
Journal Article
Yuan, G., Jin, Z., Cao, Y., Schulz, H.-M., Gluyas, J., Liu, K., …Wang, Y. (2024). Microdroplets initiate organic-inorganic interactions and mass transfer in thermal hydrous geosystems. Nature Communications, 15(1), Article 4960. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-024-49293-y

Organic-inorganic interactions regulate the dynamics of hydrocarbons, water, minerals, CO2, and H2 in thermal rocks, yet their initiation remains debated. To address this, we conducted isotope-tagged and in-situ visual thermal experiments. Isotope-ta...

Probabilistic Determination of the Role of Faults and Intrusions in Helium‐Rich Gas Fields Formation. Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 25(6), Article e2024GC011522. https://doi.org/10.1029/2024gc011522

Natural gas fields with economic helium (>0.3 He %) require the radioactive decay of crustal uranium (U) and thorium (Th) to generate He and tectonic/structural regimes favorable to releasing and concentrating He. An unknown is determining the role o... Read More about Probabilistic Determination of the Role of Faults and Intrusions in Helium‐Rich Gas Fields Formation.

Journal Article
Lan, H., Guo, M., Fu, M., Gluyas, J., Guo, H., Li, D., …Xing, F. (2024). The depositional settings of organic-rich shale in the faulted lacustrine basin: A case study of the Y1 Member of the Yingcheng Formation in the Songliao Basin. Oil Shale, 41(1), 49-70. https://doi.org/10.3176/oil.2024.1.03

Volcanic activity is often associated with the development of faulted lacustrine basins. Organic-rich shale in such basins usually contains abundant volcanic material. The influence of volcanic input on organic-rich shale deposition in the basin stud...
