UKGEOS bulk rock and dissolved organic carbon assessment

The data reported include, percent total organic carbon (%TOC), bulk rock, solvent extracted and water extracted Rock Eval Pyrolysis (Rock Eval) and Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometry (EA-irMS), optical analyses of kerogen concentrates of bulk rock samples (Kerogen microscopy), and Liquid Chromatography – Organic Carbon Detection (LC-OCD) of sample leachates. The samples were collected by UKGEOS (UK Geoenergy Observatories) Glasgow and provided for laboratory analyses to HWU Edinburgh. Samples from core well GGA01, GGA03r, GGA04, GGA05, GGA06r, GGA07, GGA08, GGA09r, GGB04, GGB05.
