Determination of a normal orogenic palaeo-geothermal gradient with clay mineral and organic matter indices: a review by Rafael Ferreiro Mählmann, Meinert Rahn, Sébastien Potel, Lan Nguyen-Thanh, Rainer Petschick

“…For the detection of a poly-phase or plurifacial thermal history, several indices of clay minerals and organic matter with very different kinetics should be used, as e.g. demonstrated by strong differences in smectite content at equal VR/KI values versus structural depth. A specific interest is given to the correlation of vitrinite like solid bitumen reflectance as an alternative method to VR, the persistent preservation of liptinite macerals and the stability range of clay minerals and sub-greenschist facies critical minerals compared with VR/KI data. …”
