A note on nannofossil preparation of organic-rich mudstones using potassium hydroxide

Research output: Contribution to journalArticleResearchpeer-review

Abstract

During a recent nannofossil study of Paleocene marine mudstone from the Nuussuaq Peninsula, central W Greenland, a preparation technique using 10% potassium hydroxide was tested in order to remove amorphous organic material from the samples because this was obscuring the nannofossil component. The test proved to be successful.
