    The Eocene Green River Formation in the Piceance Basin of Colorado contains some of the richest oil shale deposits in the world (Johnson and others, 2009; Birdwell and others, 2013). The datasets compiled here were collected with the purpose of refining our understanding of geochemical variability through the depositional history of Eocene Lake Uinta in Piceance Basin. The effects of salinity, water column stratification, and redox conditions were of particular interest. The inclusion of basin center (cores) and basin margin (outcrop) samples through the full stratigraphic interval of the Green River Formation facilitated temporal and spatial assessment of trends within the basin. Geochemical and sedimentologic features of the Green [...]

    The informal Uteland Butte member of the Eocene Green River Formation in the Uinta Basin, Utah is one of the few examples of a continuous petroleum resource play in the world situated in a lacustrine sedimentary basin (Johnson and others, 2015; Birdwell and others, 2016). The datasets compiled here were collected on outcrop samples of the Uteland Butte member with the purpose of better characterizing the geochemical and mineralogical properties and variability through this unit, which represents a period of freshwater conditions in Eocene Lake Uinta in the Uinta Basin. The data have been integrated with outcrop descriptions, geophysical (gamma ray) logs, and interpretations of depositional conditions across geographic and stratigraphic [...]

    The Upper Cretaceous Eagle Ford Group in southwest Texas represents a geologic record of the Cenomanian-Turonian period in the southern Western Interior Seaway (WIS) of North America prior to and during the Oceanic Anoxic Event 2 (OAE-2). Geochemical data generated and compiled here were collected on core samples taken from a wellbore near Del Rio, TX for the purpose of better characterizing the properties and variability within the Eagle Ford Group, an important and prolific petroleum source rock unit. The data have been integrated with sedimentological observations to characterize paleoenvironmental conditions at the southern WIS before and during OAE-2 (French et al., 2024).

    In 2021 the United States Geological Survey (USGS) sampled the lower part of the Upper Cretaceous Lewis Shale in the eastern part of the Southwestern Wyoming Province to better characterize its petroleum source rock potential for an upcoming resource assessment. Ninety-five samples from 24 wells were collected from well cuttings of the lower part of the Lewis Shale stored at the U.S. Geological Survey Core Research Center in Lakewood, Colorado. The selected wells are located near the shallow margins of the basin to obtain samples that were not subjected to the effects of deep burial and subsequent organic carbon loss due to thermal maturation as described by Daly and Edman (1987) (fig, 1). The sample intervals were selected based on high gamma ray responses that Pyles and Slatt (2007) interpreted to be organic-rich condensed sections. Special emphasis was given to the Asquith marker bed which represents the maximum transgression of the Lewis Shale (Pasternack, 2005) (fig. 2).

    In 2019 the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) quantitively assessed the potential for undiscovered, technically recoverable continuous (unconventional) oil and gas resources in the Niobrara interval of the Cody Shale in the Bighorn Basin Province (Finn and others, 2019). Leading up to the assessment, in 2017, the USGS collected samples from the Niobrara and underlying Sage Breaks intervals (Finn, 2019) to better characterize the source rock potential of the Niobrara interval. Eighty-two samples from 31 wells were collected from the well cuttings collection stored at the USGS Core Research Center in Lakewood, Colorado. The selected wells are located near the outcrop belt along the shallow margins of the basin to obtain samples that were not subjected to the effects of deep burial and subsequent organic carbon loss due to thermal maturation as described by Daly and Edman (1987) (fig. 1). Sixty samples are from the Niobrara interval, and 22 from the Sage Breaks interval (fig. 2).

    In 2020, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) assessed the potential for undiscovered, technically recoverable continuous (unconventional) oil and gas resources in the Mowry Shale in the Wind River Basin Province (Finn and others, 2021). To better characterize the source rock potential of the Mowry Shale and associated strata, 129 samples were collected from 45 wells from the well cuttings collection stored at the USGS Core Research Center in Lakewood, Colorado. The sampled wells are located along the margins of the basin in order to obtain samples that were not subjected to the effects of deep burial and subsequent organic carbon loss due to thermal maturation (Daly and Edman, 1987) (fig. 1). One hundred samples are from the upper siliceous part of the Mowry Shale (Finn, 2021), 18 from the lower part of the Mowry Shale (Shell Creek Shale equivalent, Eicher, 1962; Finn, 2021), and 11 from the Thermopolis Shale (fig. 2). The sample intervals were determined by examining the cuttings under a binocular microscope and the darkest chips were selected for analysis based on observations by Hosterman and Whitlow (1981), Charpentier and Schmoker (1982), Hunt (1996), and Landon and others (2001) that total organic carbon (TOC) content generally increases as color goes from gray to black and therefore is a rough (although not always reliable) indicator of organic richness. Obvious material from carvings and contamination, such as wood chips, metal, and plastic were removed. The cuttings were composited into samples from thickness intervals that were generally 10 to 20 ft thick but ranged from 5 to 80 ft depending on how much material was available for a proper analysis. The samples were analyzed by the USGS Central Energy Resources Science Centers Petroleum Geochemistry Research Laboratory. Total carbon and total organic carbon content were determined using a LECO� Carbon Analyzer, Model C744 (LECO Corporation, St. Joseph MI) by the combustion method after carbonate removal (see Jarvie, 1991; and Oliver and Warden, 2020, for details). The programmed pyrolysis analysis was performed using a Hydrocarbon Analyzer with Kinetics (HAWK) instrument (Wildcat Technologies, Humble TX) (see Espitali� and others, 1977; Tissot and Welte, 1978; Peters, 1986; Hunt, 1996; and Dreier and Warden, 2021, for discussions of the pyrolysis method). Values directly measured by the HAWK are S1, S2, S3, and Tmax. The values HI, OI, PI, S2/S3, G.P., and S1/TOC were calculated by the author.
