JDM 631E - Provenance Analysis

Course Objectives

The course aims to determine the source region (provenance) of clastic sediments. It is aimed to reconstruct the parent rock, the time of deposition of the terrigenous rocks, and the climate conditions during the formation of the sediments to reconstruct the tectono-sedimentary evolution of sedimentary basins in time and space.

Course Description

The course covers important topics related to different bulk sediment techniques, heavy minerals identification under binocular, polarizing, and electronic microscopes, and their applications in geochronology (igneous and metamorphic ages), and Low-temperature thermometers (zircon and apatite FT, (U-Th)/He). Furthermore, statistical methods and software for proper interpretation of complex distributions and their applications in the reconstruction of tectono-sedimentary evolution of sedimentary basins as well as oil and gas explorations.
