This study investigated the geochemical features of the lower Paleozoic strata of Yaerdang Mountain outcrop along with the core samples from well TD2 epsilon in the eastern Tarim Basin, NW China. The total organic carbon abundance, hydrocarbon-generating precursor biospecies, and stable isotope ratios of organics and carbonate (delta C-13(ker), delta C-13(carb) and delta O-18(carb)) were comprehensively studied for their possible correlative constraints during sedimentary evolution. The results revealed that the delta C-13(ker) (VPDB) of Cambrian kerogens along the outcrop section varied from -34.6 parts per thousand to -28.4 parts per thousand, indicating an increasing tendency from the lower Cambrian to the upper Cambrian. This the whole accompanied by the variation in the delta C-13(carb) and delta O-18(carb) along the profile, which might be associated with the changes in the sea level and also in the compositional variation of benthic and planktonic biomass. The large variation in the stable carbon isotope ratios up to 6& along the outcrop section reflected the heterogeneity of the Cambrian source rocks from the eastern Tarim Basin. Hence, the C-13-enriched crude oils from well TD2 epsilon might have been derived from a localized stratum of Cambrian source rocks. The results from this study showed the possibility of multiple source kitchens in the Cambrianelower Ordovician portion of Tarim Basin.
