ABSTRACT:
A rock specimen is selected from many rock specimens based on composition of released fluid inclusion volatiles being indicative of a selected class of fluid inclusions therein. Compositions of selected classes of inclusions or of selected individual fluid inclusions in the selected rock specimen are further characterized and the resulting information used in exploring for oil and gas.
