Photomicrographs of pore types by electron microprobe analysis of sandstones in central Junggar Basin. (a) and (a′) Intergranular secondary pore develops, and measuring point A shows that the remnant is K-feldspar and the measuring point B is calcite. The photomicrograph is a red-epoxy-impregnated thin sections of conventional core samples with magnification of 10 (Sha 1 well at 3656.6 m with Jurassic) and photo (a) by plane-polarized light and photo (a′) by cross polarization; (b) and (b′) intergranular secondary pore develops, and measuring point C shows that the remnant is albite and measuring point D is K-feldspar. The photomicrograph is a red-epoxy-impregnated thin sections of conventional core samples with magnification of 10 (Zhuang 1 well at 4375.23 m with Jurassic), and photo (b) by plane-polarized light and photo (b′) by cross polarization; (c) and (c′) intergranular secondary pore develops, measuring point E shows that the remnant is albite. Measuring point F is calcite and measuring point G is siderite, and the photomicrograph is a red-epoxy-impregnated thin sections of conventional core samples with magnification of 10 (Sha 2 well at 3439 m with Jurassic) and photo (c) by plane-polarized light and photo (c′) by cross-polarized light; (d) and (d′) intergranular secondary pore develops, and measuring point H shows that the remnant is calcite, measuring point I is K-feldspar, and measuring point J is albite. The photomicrograph is a red-epoxy-impregnated thin sections of conventional core samples with magnification of 10 (Y1 well at 5877 m with Jurassic) and photo (d) by plane-polarized light and photo (d′) by cross-polarized light.
