Abstract
The pore structure of rocks and other materials can be determined through microscopy and subjected to digital simulation to determine the properties of the material such as its maturity level or conversion ratio. To determine the maturity level, some disclosed method embodiments obtain a 3D model of a rock sample; estimate volumes of organic matter; estimate volumes of pores with within the organic matter; calculate a conversion ratio as a function of the volumes of organic matter and the volumes of pores within the organic matter; correlate the conversion ratio with a maturity level, and display at least one of the conversion ratio and the maturity level.
