Elemental Enrichments Compared to Global Average Anoxic Environments of Oil Shales in the Sorgun-Yeni Çeltek (Yozgat, Türkiye)
Öz
In this study, the element enrichment of the Çeltek Formation oil shales located in the Yeni Çeltek coal mine field in the Sorgun district of Yozgat province and the economic mineral deposit potential were investigated. The ICP-MS (ICP mass spectrometry) technique was used for elemental analysis, and the Rock-Eval VI device was used to determine the amount of organic matter in rocks. Total Organic Carbon (% TOC) contents of oil shale samples belonging to 2 different boreholes and one measured stratigraphic section (MSS) made on the surface in the study area vary between 1.37-11.8 wt% (average 4.96% wt%). Major and trace element contents obtained from the samples were compared with the major and trace element values of standard environments known to have anoxic conditions worldwide. According to these results, petroleum products from the Çeltek Formation oil shales and naturally occurring radioactive materials such as U, Th, and K, especially from the remaining liquid rocks and ash, and Mn, Mg, Pb, Zr, Sr, K, Ti, Ca, and Rb. In order to acquire elements such as U and Co, new scientific research in which different disciplines (such as chemistry and metallurgy) will work together needs to be deepened.
