Trace metal anomalies associated with hydrocarbon seepage in Sanand East and Miroli area of Cambay basin
The R&D work IS carried out to find the role of geochemical proxy indicator like trace metals in identifying the hydrocarbon prospective zones. Adsorbed soil gas indicates the hydrocarbon seepage zones. These seepage zones are surrounded by trace metal and microbial anomalies. These zones are in southern and middle eastern part of the study area.
Trace metal and microbial anomalies can be used to identify the hydrocarbon prospective zones
