Rock Eval data indicate a type II, immature kerogen throughout the section. Detailed optical analysis reflects that the organic matter is composed almost exclusively of material linked to an algal origin (liptinite). The terrestrial plant debris constituents occur as a backround input signal, which accounts for a maximum of less than 3.2% of the total organic matter. According to the SP (source potential) values these rocks have an excellent petroleum potential; however, our data may be affected by outcrop weathering. The kerogen carbon isotopic composition ranges from delta(13)C(org) value of –30.9 to –28.6% (relative to V–PDB). Relative to the laminated black shale samples, lower TOC and higher bitumen contents in the liptinite fraction together with lower hydrogen index and higher delta(13)C(org) values in the thin-bedded black shale samples reflect an early diagenetic oxidation of labile marine organic matter. Measured delta(13)C(carb) and delta(18)O(carb) values show that the carbonate composition of the black shale samples is strongly affected by homogenizing effect of diagenesis. Therefore, these data can not be used to infer palaeoenvironmental conditions

    Distribution and composition of Mg-calcite and dolomite in the water and sediments of Lake Balaton

    Lake Balaton is a large and shallow lake that is of great economic and cultural importance in landlocked Hungary. Even though the lake has been studied extensively in the last century from a large number of scientific aspects, the mineralogy of its sediments has not been fully explored. The mud at the bottom of the lake consists mostly of silt-sized grains of carbonate minerals with compositions between those of calcite (CaCO3) and dolomite CaMg (CO3)2. In order to understand the processes of carbonate precipitation and the influence of water budget fluctuations on the mineralogical character of the sediment, we used X-ray powder diffraction to analyze the changes of cell parameters of carbonate minerals in the upper half meter of the sediment. The major carbonate phase is Mg-calcite that shows a distinct reduction in cell parameters from west to east, reflecting an increase of its Mg-content, in parallel with a gradient of dissolved Mg/Ca ratio in the water. Intriguingly, dolomite, the other widespread carbonate phase in the sediment, also shows a change in cell parameters from west to east, with the deviations from values of stoichiometric dolomite being largest in the Eastern Basin of the lake. The similar pattern of cell parameter changes of Mg-calcite and dolomite suggests that ordered dolomite with slightly anomalous, Ca-rich composition also forms in the lake, probably by direct precipitation from the water. In contrast, protodolomite forms within the sediment through diagenetic processes. Based on our X-ray powder diffraction measurements, we propose a model of carbonate mineral formation and transformation in Lake Balaton. Since the Mg/Ca ratio of the water appears to be the major factor in controlling the compositions of carbonate minerals, and this ratio in turn is governed by the amount of water supply, the properties of the precipitating carbonate minerals are affected by the actual level of the lake water

Documentation of many wells and boreholes were revised in varied details. It is followed by studies of cores of dozens of boreholes. A significant part of the mount for lab studies were dedicated for MTA GKL in a contract, the rest was used by MÁFI and other research places for varied scientific directions. Major achievements: Based on microtectonic studies VillĂĄny Hills 6 tectonic phases were distinguished in the VillĂĄny Hills. The character of the VillĂĄny Range is determined by transpressional stress fields. Thickness maps of the Lower Jurassic formations and their pebble–bearing beds of the KomlĂł coalfield have been prepared. The coincidences of the maximum thicknesses of the map sets gave evidences for the long existence of both the quickly and the slowly sinking areas of the basin. The formation time and the short-cyclic variability of the organic-rich Toarcian beds were established on recently gained data set. In a similar way cycles of climatic changes were appointed for the Early Jurassic epochs. Using basic geological data the model of the palaeogeographic history of the Tisza unit is reassessed fundamentally. According to this the process of separation started at the end of the Middle Triassic and the consolidation begun with the formation of nappe system at the end of the Early Cretaceous

    The data presented in this article are related to the research article “Palynology and weathering proxies reveal climatic fluctuations during the Carnian Pluvial Episode (CPE) (Late Triassic) from marine successions in the Transdanubian Range (western Hungary)” (Baranyi et al., 2019). Palynological and palynofacies counts and mineralogical data are presented that build the core for the palaeoenvironmental and palaeoclimatic interpretation discussed in the original research article. Other component of this data article is the description of the applied laboratory and analytical techniques. We also supply microscopic images of the identified pollen and spores and a list of all identified palynomorphs
