PRELIMINARY STUDY OF FOSSILS IN KEROGEN SAMPLES FROM SILURIAN IN SOUTHERN SICHUAN

The analysis of kerogen under transmitted light is quite a new method for estimation of source rocks. The author determined some kerogen samples from Silurian in southern Sichuan, under microscopic transmitted light. During the process, he found that there were many well preserved fossils. The discovery is important in further study of kerogen paleontology and the prediction of sedimentary environment.
