Geochemistry characteristics and hydrocarbon-generating potential of lacustrine source rock in Lucaogou Formation of the Jimusaer Sag, Junggar Basin

Therefore, there are preferable oil-generating potential of lithologically different source rocks in Lucaogou Formation of the Jimusaer Sag. The shales are chiefly oil-prone source rock and parts of dolostone, sandstone and limestone also have a contribution to the oil reservoirs.
