Abstract
A study was carried out using Rock-Eval 6 pyrolysis and kerogen kinetics (using OPTKIN software) to investigate various lithotypes from the Giral lignite mine in the Barmer basin. The objective was to determine the type of organic matter (OM), deposition environment, maturity and potential for hydrocarbon generation.
