Mem. Cabrera et al., Characterization of ophiolites from northern Havana-Matanzas petroleum fields using instrumental neutron activation analysis, APPL RAD IS, 54(1), 2001, pp. 183-188
Concentrations of 16 elements from 14 serpentinitic samples from Basilio an
d Cantel petroleum fields were obtained by instrumental neutron activation
analysis (INAA): Cr, Co, Ni, La, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Ce Yb, Lu, Rb, Cs, Hf
and Th. Relative INAA was performed using certified reference materials and
laboratory standards. Average elemental concentrations showed that the oph
iolites have a basic character, suggesting the use of a well-logging method
designed fbr volcano-sedimentary petroleum fields. (C) 2000 Elsevier Scien
