The great thing about that perspective is that we get to see how much of the world&#039;s past oil reserves have leaked out and aren&#039;t around any more.
Here&#039;s a question, though.  How to predicted rates of GHG-induced sea level rise compare with the eustatic component of transgression seen in various petroleum-bearing strata?</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Of course, those of us who are industrial hard rock geologists look at petroleum as a mere precursor for the formation of MVT and Zambian style base metal mineralization.</p><p>The great thing about that perspective is that we get to see how much of the world&#039;s past oil reserves have leaked out and aren&#039;t around any more.</p><p>Here&#039;s a question, though.
