Pyrolytically Derived Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Marine Oils from the Tarim Basin, NW China
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in oils from the cratonic region of the Tarim Basin have been characterized by gas chromatography–mass spectroscopy to investigate their origins and geochemical applications. PAHs dominated by unsubstituted components together with pyrolytically derived components such as anthracene, fluoranthene, benzoanthracene, benzofluoranthenes and benzopyrenes occur in some oils represented by those from well TD2. The widespread spatial and temporal occurrence of igneous activity within the Palaeozoic succession in the Tarim Basin makes the derivation of the latter PAHs from pyrolytic sources probable. Exposure to high temperatures results in the pyrolysis of the oil reservoir, adding high-temperature aromatic artifacts to the oil. Geochemical measurements show the wide occurrence of mixing processes between pyrolytically derived PAHs and diagenetically derived hydrocarbons. Good preservation of pyrolytic PAHs in oils from well TD2 and a few other wells is because they are less affected by late charge and dilution processes. However, these pyrolytically derived PAHs in conjunction with the bulk carbon isotopic compositions have been commonly misinterpreted in oil-source correlations. Only oils from well TD2 and a few other wells have been correlated to the Cambrian source rocks because of the wrong selection of end members. When the effects from the rapid heating of organic material by magmatic intrusions and/or hydrothermal fluid activity are properly accounted for, confusion in oil-source correlations may potentially be resolved and the contribution from the Cambrian strata can appropriately be assessed.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
