Multi-spectroscopic and elemental characterization of southern Australian asphaltites

Multi-spectroscopic and elemental characterization of southern Australian asphaltites

Strandings of various types of bitumen along the coast of southern Australia are long known. Among these, brittle, angular lumps termed ‘asphaltites’ are possibly sourced from Cretaceous source rocks linked to an oceanic anoxic event (OAE), but the exact source remains unclear.
