The genetic environmental transformation mechanism of coal and oil shale deposits in eastern China’s continental fault basins and the developmental characteristics of the area’s symbiotic assemblages—taking Huangxian Basin as an example

Abstract Coal and oil shale are two common sedimentary energy sources which are often symbiotically developed in Mesozoic–Cenozoic continental fault basins. However, the mechanisms and characteristics of the symbiotic development are not yet clearly known. In this research study, the typical contine...
