Tasmanite is a rock type almost entirely consisting of the prasinophyte alga ''Tasmanites''. It is commonly associated with high-latitude, nutrient-rich, marginal marine settings find in Tasmania.〔Peters, K.E., C.C. Walters & P.J. Mankiewicz, 2006, ''Evaluation of kinetic uncertainty in numerical models of petroleum generation,'' American Association of Petroleum Geologists Bulletin, 90, 387–403.〕 It is classified as marine type oil shale.〔Hutton, A.C. 1987. Petrographic classification of oil shales // Intern. J. Coal Geol. 1987. Vol. 8. P. 203–231.〕 It is found in many oil-prone source rocks and, when present, contributes to the oil generation potential of the rock. Some sources also produce a red-brown translucent material similar to amber which has also been called tasmanite. ==See also== *Cannel coal *Kukersite *Lamosite *Marinite *Torbanite *Oil shale geology 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tasmanite」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
