Abstract
Trace and rare earth element (REE) of Jurassic mudstones from the northern Qaidam Basin of northwest China were measured by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) analysis. The analytical results show that the trace element and REE concentrations are higher than in the average of the upper crust. Three aspects evolved: (i) the paleoclimate index, Σ(Fe + Mn + Cr + Ni + V + Co)/Σ(Ca + Mg + Sr + Ba + K + Na), varies between 0.27 and...
