    Maturity of Menilite Shales from Polish Outer Carpathians based on vitrinite reflectance and Rock-Eval pyrolysis data
    (Wydawnictwa AGH, 2012) Waliczek, Marta; Więcław, Dariusz
    Maturity of organic matter is one of the most important parameters characterizing the source rock. The maturation process depends on organic matter properties (kinetic parameters of kerogen) and burial history (temperature and time). The vitrinite reflectance measurements and Rock-Eval pyrolysis are widely used to characterize the maturity of organic matter occurring in the source rock. The purpose of the present study is to determine the thermal maturity of organic material present in Oligocene Menilite Shales from Polish Outer Carpathians based on vitrinite reflectance and Rock-Eval pyrolysis data. These organic-rich rocks are considered as a main source of oils accumulated in Outer Carpathian sequence (Kotarba & Kołtun 2006).

    Wstępna ocena macierzystości wybranych utworów paleozoiku Gór Świętokrzyskich
    (Wydawnictwa AGH, 2010) Malec, Jan; Więcław, Dariusz; Zbroja, Stanisława
    The hydrocarbon potential of selected Paleozoic lithostratigraphic complexes of the Holy Cross Mountains was determined based on the results of Rock-Eval pyrolysis of 47 samples. For investigations only rocks in dark colours from Cambrian, Ordovician, Silurian, Carboniferous and Permian strata were selected. The Cambrian and Ordovician strata from the Łysogóry Region have poor source-rock parameters. Among the Silurian strata, the claystones of the Bardo Beds (ca. 3 wt. % TOC) are the richest in total organic carbon (TOC). The claystones of the Zaręby Formation (Carboniferous - Visean and Tournaisian) have mean TOC content ca. 2.8 wt. % and the Zechstein Limestone (Permian) ca. 1.6 wt. % TOC. In the Early Paleozoic strata marine kerogen (Type-II) is present. It dominates also in the Upper Paleozoic strata. Local inputs of the terrigenous Type-III kerogen were confirmed in the Zaręby Formation (Carboniferous). The Cambrian and Ordovician strata in the Łysogóry region are overmature. Maturity of the investigated Silurian, Carboniferous and Permian strata corresponds with the initial and middle phases of the »oil window«. The NW margin of the Holy Cross Mountains, where the Paleozoic complexes rich in the organic matter are covered by the Mesozoic complex, is perspective area for hydrocarbon exploration.

    Charakterystyka macierzystości wybranych utworów fliszowych w przygranicznej strefie polskich Karpat Zewnętrznych
    (Wydawnictwa AGH, 2009) Kosakowski, Paweł; Więcław, Dariusz; Kotarba, Maciej
    Potential source rock horizons of the flysch cover were geochemically characterized in the eastern border area of the Polish flysch Carpathians: Lower Cretaceous Verovice, Lgota and Spas Beds, Upper Cretaceous Istebna and Inoceramian Beds as well as Oligocene Menilite Beds. The results of geochemical analyses of 875 rock samples collected from 11 boreholes and 48 outcrops in the Polish Outer Carpathians as well as from the adjacent Ukrainian were analyzed. The results indicate that Menilite Beds are the best source rocks of the Carpathian flysch cover in all analyzed tectonic units. The oil-prone Type II kerogen, deposited in marine environment of regular salinity, was proved to be usually immature or mature at an early stage of »oil window«. Kinetic parameters of organic matter dispersed in the Menilite Beds, calculated based on organic sulphur content, are similar for the Silesian and Skole units and significantly lower in the Boryslav-Pokuttya Unit. The remaining lithostratigraphic divisions: Verovice, Lgota, Spas, Istebna and Inoceramian Beds, locally meet the source-rock requirements and can supplement the hydrocarbon balance of the Carpathians.

    Górnojurajsko-dolnokredowe skały macierzyste w zachodniej części Karpat fliszowych
    (Wydawnictwa AGH, 2008) Golonka, Jan; Matyasik, Irena; Skupien, Petr; Więcław, Dariusz; Waśkowska, Anna; Krobicki, Michał; Strzeboński, Piotr Andrzej; Vašíček, Zdenĕk
    The analysis of possibility to find Upper Jurassic-Lower Cretaceous source rocks in the western part of Flysch Carpathians in Poland and Czech Republic was the subject of present paper. The Upper Jurassic organic-rich Mikulov marls represent world-class source rocks. These 1400 m thick organic-rich rocks with TOC value 0.2 $\div$ 10% sourced oils in the Vienna Basin and Carpathian subthrust in Czech Republic and Austria. The similar source rocks perhaps exist in the deeper subthrust areas in Poland. The Vendryne Formation rocks do not contain significant amount of organic carbon. The increased TOC was encountered within the Verovice Formation and uppermost part of Hradiste Formatio. These rocks represent global anoxic event OAE 1b. Verovice Formation contains potential source rocks for the Outer Carpathians systems with reservoirs various in age.

    Correlation between organic and inorganic indicators of thermal maturity in Dukla Nappe (Polish Outer Carpathians)
    (Wydawnictwa AGH, 2014) Waliczek, Marta; Więcław, Dariusz; Świerczewska, Anna
    Correlation between organic (vitrinite reflectance (Ro) and Rock-Eval Tmax temperature) and inorganic (mixed layer illite/smectite (I/S)) indicators of thermal maturity depend mainly on the maximum temperature achieved by the rock and the time exposure of this temperature. During sedimentary or tectonic burial of rocks, clay minerals may react diversely to organic matter due to heat flow features and the duration of heating (Aldega et al. 2005). The aim of this study was to correlate maximum paleotemperatures of the Oligocene Menilite Shales from the Polish Outer Carpathians determined based on vitrinite reflectance and Rock-Eval pyrolysis data to those calculated using I/S ratio.
