Description
Summary:Fifteen oil seepage and solid bitumen samples in the Southern Guizhou Depression were analyzed with GC-MS. Characteristics of molecular markers and carbon isotopes are discussed systemically. The results showed that the oil seepage and solid bitumen samples in the Southern Guizhou Depression could be divided into two families: Ordovician and Siluric samples, and Permian samples. The two families are different in alkanes distribution, biomarkers, aromatic hydrocarbon composition, and stable carbon isotopes; differences mainly caused by source rock variation.
