Micro-scale chemical and physical patterns in an interface of hydrothermal dolomitization reveals the governing transport mechanisms in nature: Case of the Layens anticline, Pyrenees, France

Stephen Centrella et al.

Summary: Hydrothermal dolomitization is a widespread geological process that involves the replacement of calcite by dolomite through fluid infiltration and dissolution. This results in the formation of porosity and a decrease in calcite grain size until complete replacement. The governing transport mode of the dolomitizing fluid at crystal-scale is essential for understanding this diagenetic process.

Multistage dolomitization and formation of ultra-deep Lower Cambrian Longwangmiao Formation reservoir in central Sichuan Basin, China

Dawei Liu et al.

Summary: The study of deeply buried dolostones in the Lower Cambrian Longwangmiao Formation at Central Sichuan Basin of China reveals dolomitization mechanisms through petrological and geochemical analyses. Early dolomitization is suggested to be caused by reflux of slightly modified seawater, while later processes involve meteoric water influx, dissolution and reprecipitation due to burial compaction, and possible hydrothermal fluid influence. Late diagenetic calcites with negative delta C-13 values are interpreted to be derived from TSR. The preservation of primary and early diagenetic porosity plays a crucial role in the formation of economically important dolostone reservoirs.

Source and accumulation processes of natural gases in the Qixia Formation in the Northwestern Sichuan Basin, SW China

Qiqi Li et al.

Summary: The study identified the sources of natural gas in the Qixia Formation in the Northwestern Sichuan Basin through carbon isotope and biomarkers analyses, revealing differences in gas sources in different structural belts and the accumulation process involving three stages. The Indosinian, Yanshania, and Himalayan movements greatly influenced the formation of the Qixia Formation reservoir, with different structural belts experiencing distinct accumulation processes.

The effect of diagenesis on rare earth element geochemistry of the Quaternary carbonates at an isolated coral atoll in the South China Sea

Yun Luo et al.

Summary: The redox state of ancient seawater is crucial for understanding the variations in atmospheric and oceanic conditions in the geological past. Rare earth elements + Y (REY) in marine carbonates are considered a potential proxy for reconstructing paleoredox conditions. This study confirms the conservative behavior of REY in reefal carbonates during various diagenetic transformations under conditions of low terrigenous contaminations.
