Why is the mineral dolomite, CaMg(CO 3) 2, abundant in ancient sedimentary rocks but scarce in modern rock-forming environments? What are the natural processes that lead …
Our results indicate that high-pressure polymorphism in dolomite could stabilize CaMg(CO 3) 2 in the deep mantle, and thus that …
Similar to norsethite, another dolomite analogue of PbMg (CO 3) 2 has been widely studied to explore the dolomite phenomenon. The possibility of synthesizing …
A mysterious counample is dolomite CaMg (CO 3) 2, a geologically abundant sedimentary mineral that does not readily grow at ambient conditions, not even under …
Dolomite CaMg(CO3)2. Crystal Data: Hexagonal. Point Group: 3. Crystals typically combinations of {1011} and. aggregates, columnar, stalactitic, granular, massive. …
The structure of dolomite, CaMg (CO 3) 2, was determined from 298 to 1466 K at a constant pressure of about 3 GPa using in situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction data to …
Dolomite is one of the major mineral forms in which carbon is subducted into the Earth's mantle. End-member CaMg(CO 3) 2 dolomite typically breaks down upon …
In this edition of Introduction to the Rock-Forming Minerals, most of the commonly occurring minerals of igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks are …
