Default compost question, massive dose of wood shavings

Hello all

I have just had a big old epicea and an over-aged walnut
felled and a lot of the branches shredded.

The epicea shreddings will presumably be good for acidic plants,
e.g. rhododendron.

Can the large amount of walnut shreddings be put straight on the compost
heap ?

I seem to recall someone saying that sudden large amounts
of wood-derived compost
would draw certain useful elements out of the soil.

Grateful for advice, from Ray
