Presence of charcoal as evidence of paleofires in the Claromecó Basin, Permian of Gondwana, Argentina: Diagenetic and paleoenvironment analysis based on coal petrography studies

The PANG0001 well, situated in the Claromecó Basin, Argentina, involves rocks that belong to the Tunas Formation [29], Permian of Gondwana. It is composed of fine to medium sandstones intercalating with black and green mudrocks and three coal seams up to 3 m thick. In the coals, a petrographic analy...

The vitrinite reflectance values are between 1.3% and 2.38%. The coals classify as semiantracitic to low volatile bituminous, with 10 to 25% of volatile matter.
