Synchrotron #X-ray imaging & #XANES reveal Fe–S speciation in organic-rich mudstones.

Redox and reactive Fe flux drove carbon preservation via sulfurisation, competing with pyrite formation, across the Kimmeridge, Monterey & Whitby formations.

Spatially resolved X-ray imaging and molecular characterisation of sulfur and iron in organic- and sulfur-rich hydrocarbon source mudstones
Sulfurisation of organic matter (OM) is a prominent preservation mechanism, however iron sulfide precipitation, particularly pyrite (FeS2), can counte…
