| [[:file:oiloil-and-oilsource-rock-correlations_fig8-5.png|Figure 1]] is a gas chromatogram of a high-wax oil of terrestrial origin with an odd-carbon preference in the wax region and a high pristane-phytane ratio typical of coaly or certain nearshore aquatic environments. Significant input of terrigenous organic matter is indicated by a bimodal ''n''-alkane distribution (a second mode in the wax region, from ''n''-C<sub>23</sub> to ''n''-C<sub>31</sub>), a pristane-phytane ratio greater than 2.0, and a strong odd-carbon ''n''-alkane dominance from ''n''-C<sub>25</sub> to ''n''-C<sub>31</sub>. These features are characteristic of deltaic or lacustrine-sourced oils (in this case, from Indonesia). | | [[:file:oiloil-and-oilsource-rock-correlations_fig8-5.png|Figure 1]] is a gas chromatogram of a high-wax oil of terrestrial origin with an odd-carbon preference in the wax region and a high pristane-phytane ratio typical of coaly or certain nearshore aquatic environments.
