Cross-plots of (a) Se and As, (b) Se and Cd for samples of Bowland Shale Formation and ochres at Mam Tor. Cross-plots of (a) Se and As, (b) Se and Cd for samples of Bowland Shale Formation and ochres at Mam Tor. Altered samples of shale show depletion of elements. Ochres are enriched in Cd relative to parent shales. All data are anomalous relative to global mean shale concentrations (from Rudnick & Gao 2003; Hu & Gao 2008; Stüeken et al. 2015).
