ORIGINE ET SIGNIFICATION DE LA MATIERE ORGANIQUE DANS LES EVAPORITES. APPLICATION AU BASSIN POTASSIQUE DU SUD DE L'ALSACE

Objective



The evaporitic sediments in the Potassic Basin in Alsace will be the subject of an organic- geochemistry investigation into their geological and sedimentological setting with the assistance of mining company. The principal scientific objectives of the project are: - to make progress in determing the geochemical features of evaporites (sulphur-containing molecules, makers of the activity of halophilic and methanogenetic bacteria)
- to study the influence of variations in the sedimentary environment origin)organic content of sediments (amounts, chemical composition, - to study phenomena of redistribution during burial of the mobile fraction of organic matter.
