Figure F27. The T_max values generated from Rock-Eval pyrolysis analyses of organic matter for Site 1170. The high variability of values above ~460 mbsf is likely caused by the very low TOC values in these samples. Below 460 mbsf, the T_max values are indicative of immature organic matter relative to oil generation, although values approach the "oil window" (vertical dotted lines) at the base of the core.
