Mineralogical correlation between primary and replacement dolomites

Mineralogical correlation between primary and replacement dolomites Primary dolostones occur in the Upper Sinian Dengying Formation. Based on mineralogical study the indicators for correlation between the primary dolomites which are not influenced by the diagenesis and the replacement dolomites of different periods have been obtained. It is shown that the primary dolomites are characterized by crystal forms precipitated and deposited directly from sea water, stable and homogeneous distribution of Mg and Ca, ideal chemical composition, regular modulated microstructures, low positive δ 13 C and low negative δ 18 O. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Science in China Series D: Earth Sciences Springer Journals

Abstract

Primary dolostones occur in the Upper Sinian Dengying Formation. Based on mineralogical study the indicators for correlation between the primary dolomites which are not influenced by the diagenesis and the replacement dolomites of different periods have been obtained. It is shown that the primary dolomites are characterized by crystal forms precipitated and deposited directly from sea water, stable and homogeneous distribution of Mg and Ca, ideal chemical composition, regular modulated microstructures, low positive δ 13 C and low negative δ 18 O.
