Eker, Çiğdem Saydam; Arı, Uğur Volkan
Samples from late Jurassic–early Cretaceous age limestones in five different areas in the Gümüşhane region (NE-Türkiye), were studied using TOC/Rock–Eval, and some trace elements analysis, to evaluate their organic material source, type, thermal maturity, and paleo-environment conditions. The studied carbonate rocks are characterized by 90 m thick in the Bağlarbaşı section, 420 m in the Gülaçar, 584 m in the Ünlüpınar, 375 m in the Mescitli, and 272 m in the Yuvacık. The carbonate rocks are generally represented by, from bottom to top, dolomite, oolitic, sparitic, sandy, micritic, clayey, and bituminous limestones. Average total organic carbon (TOC) values are 0.14, 0.16, 0.20, 0.12, and 0.20% in the Bağlarbaşı, Gülaçar, Ünlüpınar, Mescitli, and Yuvacık sections, respectively. Organic material in the limestones consists of Type II-III kerogen, indicating that a mixture of terrigenous higher plants–marine aquatic organisms was the main source. Average Tmax values and Tmax-based vitrinite reflectance values (Ro %) are calculated as 435 and 0.67, 444 and 0.83, 431 and 0.60, 442 and 0.79, and 437 °C and 0.70 in the Bağlarbaşı, Gülaçar, Ünlüpınar, Mescitli, and Yuvacık sections, respectively, indicating that the samples have generally reached thermal maturity. The limestones in the Gülaçar, Mescitli, and Yuvacık areas are probably well-drained rocks that were extracted and originated hydrocarbon efficiently from the limestone fractures. In general, a non-marine–sometimes marine deposition environment for the carbonates is indicated by total sulfur values. V/Ni and Sr/Ba ratios indicate a stratified water column with high–low salinity and anoxic–oxic bottom water circumstances and accordingly a transitional sedimentation environment.

Saydam Eker, Çiğdem; Akpinar, İbrahim; Sipahi, Ferkan
The amount and type,the inorganic element content,and the maturity of organic materials of Eocene coals,shaly coals,and coaly shales exposed in the Gümüşhane and Bayburt districts of the Eastern Black Sea Region of Turkey were investigated. The depositional environments and hydrocarbon potentials were also interpreted. The total organic carbon concentrations in the studied samples ranged from 0.50% to 63.08%. The samples from Özyurt,Kayadibi,and Tarhanas contained types II and III kerogen,and those from Sökmen and Manas contained type III kerogen. The samples contained Co,Cs,Ga,Hf,Th,U,Y,Mo,Be,Cd,Sb,and La,with average values similar to those of standard brown coals. The samples showed average contents of Co,Ga,Nb,Rb,V,Y,Cu,Pb,Zn,As,Be,and Se,similar to those of other Turkish coals. The sediment source of Eocene samples in the five areas was characterized by rocks with intermediate or mafic geochemical characteristics. The terrigenous/aquatic ratio of coal and shaly coal samples of the areas in question is >1. The sterane distribution was C29 > C28 > C27 and C29 > C27 > C28 for the Özyurt and Tarhanas areas,respectively. The average Tmax values for samples are between 424 °C and 460 °C. For samples Oz-1 and Ta-2,22S/(22S + 22R) homohopane (C32) ratios are 0.48 and 0.61,respectively; 20S/(20S + 20R) sterane (C29) ratios are 0.18 and 0.53,respectively; and Ts/(Ts + Tm) ratios are 0.015 and 0.64,respectively. The Pr/Ph ratios of the samples are >3. The studied samples have low sterane/hopane and high (C19+C20)/C23) ratios without anoxic biomarkers (17α(H)-28,30-bisnorhopane). Based on these data,the coals,shaly coals,and coaly shales were probably deposited under an oxic-suboxic mixture of marine and terrestrial environment conditions; these materials contain terrestrial organic matter and cannot generate hydrocarbon.

Eker, C.S.; Sipahi, F.; Akpnar, I.
Organic matter content, type of organic material, and thermal maturity of Lias-aged coals of the Gumushane and Bayburt areas were investigated. The total organic carbon contents of coals in the Gumushane area range from 0.39-35.46 wt%, and in the Bayburt area range from 0.02-50.64 wt%. The Gumushane (except Güvercinlik field) and Bayburt areas coals have low hydrogen index values. The coal samples contain a mixture of Type II and Type III kerogens. Based on average Tmax values Liassic coals in the Gumushane and Bayburt (except Cerci field) areas are mature, and potential yields are low.

Eker, C.S.
Type of organic material, thermal maturity, depositional environment, and source rock potential of Eocene aged clastic rocks of the Eastern Black Sea Region were investigated. Based on total organic carbon values, clastic rocks range from weak-good source rock. Samples contain a mixture of Type I-Type III kerogen. Based on T max values, Eocene aged clastic rocks were thermally mature. Moretane/hopane ratio of samples <0.15, 22S/(22S + 22R) homohopane (C32), and 20S/(20S + 20R) sterane (C29) maturity parameters were equal or very close to equilibrium value of oil generation. The deposition environment was transitional marine environment and clastic rocks do not have the potential to form hydrocarbon.
