Abstract
Abstract The problem of proving the genetic difference between the Ewekoro Formation in its shaly facies, and the Oshosun Formation, a shale, has been attacked by means of a multivariate statistical analysis of data on major chemical constituents of the rocks. It has been possible to demonstrate that the chemical constituents of the formations display a fundamentally different pattern of variation, particularly with respect to the elements P, Si, and Al. The data are analysed by the multivariate procedures of principal component analysis and factor analysis.
