We do facies and log analysis to interpret depositional environments, reservoir architecture, and sequence stratigraphic framework which in return allows us to investigate their control on mineralization and insitu recovery methods. We also utilize a range of tools (XRD ,XRF, ICP MS, SEM) to investigate the effect of tectonics and climate (i.e. PETM) on sedimentation.
