Assessing provenance of Upper Cretaceous siliciclastics using spectral γ-ray record

Assessing provenance of Upper Cretaceous siliciclastics using spectral γ-ray record

The relationship between contents of clay minerals/grain size and spectral γ-ray record (concentrations of K, U and Th) in sediments is used for interpretation of sedimentary facies in wire-line logs. However, this approach is often complicated by the multi-component nature of mineralogically immatu...
