Formation of Replacement Dolomite in the Latemar Carbonate Buildup, Dolomites, Northern Italy: Part 1. Field Relations, Mineralogy, and Geochemistry
Replacement dolomite in the Latemar carbonate buildup, northern Italy, formed when limestone was infiltrated by and reacted with Mg-rich fluid. It occurs in discrete bodies in sharp contact with unreacted limestone. The dolomite developed in a nearly orthogonal lattice of vertical columns (replacement of limestone breccia pipes) and sheets (replacement along fractures and limestone-dike contact...
متن کاملDirect nanoscale observations of the coupled dissolution of calcite and dolomite and the precipitation of gypsum
In-situ atomic force microscopy (AFM) experiments were performed to study the overall process of dissolution of common carbonate minerals (calcite and dolomite) and precipitation of gypsum in Na2SO4 and CaSO4 solutions with pH values ranging from 2 to 6 at room temperature (23 ± 1 °C). The dissolution of the carbonate minerals took place at the (104) cleavage surfaces in sulfate-rich solutions ...
متن کاملThermal decomposition of dolomite under CO2: insights from TGA and in situ XRD analysis.
Thermal decomposition of dolomite in the presence of CO2 in a calcination environment is investigated by means of in situ X-ray diffraction (XRD) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The in situ XRD results suggest that dolomite decomposes directly at a temperature around 700 °C into MgO and CaO. Immediate carbonation of nascent CaO crystals leads to the formation of calcite as an intermediate...
متن کاملMineral-solution Equilibria in Sparingly Soluble Mineral Systems
Recent solubility, electrokinetic, spectroscopic and flotation studies in our laboratory on apatite and calcite in aqueous electrolytes indicate complex mineral_olution interactions which can alter surface characteristics of these minerals markedly in the presence of each other. In the case of systems containing such sparingly soluble minerals, understanding of the mineral_olution chemical equi...
متن کاملInfluence of Mg2+, Fe2+ and Zn2+ Cations on 13C-18O Bonds in Precipitated Aragonite, Calcite and Dolomite: An ab Initio Study
The influence of metal cations on 13C-18O bonds in carbonates is still under debate. This paper used ab initio method to investigate this kind of influence of Mg2+, Fe2+ and Zn2+ cations on 13C-18O bonds in precipitated aragonite, calcite and dolomite. The polynomials of ∆47 and reduced partition function ratios (RPFRs) for 13/12C, 14/12C and 18/16O of these minerals were given within temperatu...
