In addition, rare earth element patterns and spider diagrams were constructed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The study led to the interpretation of source rocks, tectonic setting, depositional environment, paleoclimate, weathering conditions, and geochemical maturity of the studied rocks.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The seminar witnessed fruitful scientific discussions and an exchange
