✦ Synopsis


A sample of kerogen from Aleksinac oil shale was examined by high-resolution solid-state Iac n.m.r. spectroscopy. The presence and relative proportions of kerogen structural units were estimated using a combination of NQS and Tlpc methods with a peak-synthesis technique applied to the 13C CP-MAS spectrum. Relaxation parameters from these experiments were used to estimate differences in relative 'mobility' of various structural units. The kerogen was found to be highly aliphatic and to contain ~ 79% long-chain aliphatic plus alicyclic structures, as well as ~ 9% aromatic structures. These findings are in good agreement with the characterization of the same kerogen from its oxidation products.

Solid-state 13C n.m.r. (CP/MAS-13C n.m.r.) spectroscopy provides a direct method for estimating potential oil yields of oil shale formations. Relative aliphatic resonance areas correlate linearly with oil yield and provide a method for oil yield estimation that obviates the need to determine weight

## Cross -polarization and magic-angle spinning suggest that the aromatic carbons in oil shales are largely inert to thermal processes and instead are responsible for the carbonaceous residue obtained during retorting. These results are based on 13C n m.r. measurements of the organic carbon distri
