Abstract

Seventeen sediment samples of Albian-Cenomanian to early Pliocene age from DSDP Hole 530A and six sediment samples of early Pliocene to late Pleistocene age from the Walvis Ridge were investigated by organic geochemical methods, including organic carbon determination, Rock-Eval pyrolysis, gas chromatography and combined gas chromatography/mass spectrometry of extractable hydrocarbons, and kerogen microscopy. The organic matter in all samples is strongly influenced by a terrigenous component from the nearby continent.-from Authors
