"This Memoir is an outgrowth of the joint SEPM-AAPG Mudstone Diagenesis Hedberg Research Conference held in Santa Fe, New Mexico, October 16-19, 2016. The purpose of the conference was to bring together leading experts from industry, academia, and government to present and discu…
"This volume focuses on the previously poorly described physical properties of muds and mudstones in both near-surface and deep basinal settings. Amongst its contents are reviews of the compaction, permeability, thermal conductivity and mechanical properties of mudstones, experi…
Siliciclastic mudrocks, often termed shales, represent more than two thirds of all sedimentary rocks on Earth, yet they are probably the least understood. This volume brings together eight articles on current research on mudrocks of academic and industry importance that help cla…
The case studies included in this volume span two overall thematic blocks: the first one focuses on mudstone deposition in several settings and the second focuses on the diagenetic processes that have affected important mudstone units. The two papers opening the volume describe …
