What is Vitrinite Reflectance in Coal Geology about?

Vitrinite reflectance is a commonly used technique to determine the thermal maturity of organic matter in sediments and the potential for hydrocarbon generation. Vitrinite is a maceral group derived from plant cell walls and tissues. As burial and temperature increase during diagenesis, the reflectance of vitrinite increases in a predictable way. Measurements of vitrinite reflectance provide information about maximum paleotemperatures experienced by the sediment. The technique is inexpensive, quick and does
