Types of carbonate platforms: a genetic approach | Earthdoc

Jan 12, 2002· ABSTRACT Many types of carbonate platforms have been described, from homoclinal ramps to rimmed shelves and a full spectrum of variations in between; the distinction between these different types can be problematic. Nevertheless, classification of carbonate platforms is not just a semantic or academic issue. For example, it is clearly important for the accurate interpretation of …

The effects of Ag +, Al 3+, and Cr 3+ ions on calcium carbonate polymorphs were investigated using a double diffusion technique. The experimental results, analyzed by the equivalency rule, were as follows: (i) Ag +, Al 3+, and Cr 3+ ions promoted the formation of aragonite; (ii) in the presence of Ag + ions, Ag 2 CO 3 crystals acted as a nucleus for the epitaxial growth of aragonite; (iii) Al ...

San Cassiano Formation - Wikipedia

San Cassiano Formation (Anisian-Carnian) is a geologic formation located on the Southern Alps (Northeast of Italy) in the Dolomites.These Triassic dolomites are considered to be a classic example of ancient carbonate platforms. As the allochthonous elements in the Shale strata (Cipit boulders) show a good preservation, fossils and microbialites contained in these elements are useful in ...

Volcaniclastic Sedimentation and Facies

Above the Plio-Pleistocene siliciclastic basement, five seismic units, Unit 1 to Unit 5 in descending order, were identified and correlated to the Pleistocene Ryukyu Group and Holocene sediments. A major tectonic event between ca. 1.7 Ma and 1.2 Ma deformed the Plio-Pleistocene siliciclastic basement (Unit 6).

The Middle Oxfordian strata in the southern part of the Cracow-Wielun Upland consist of platy and bedded limestones (‘normal facies’), of massive limestones as well as locally of mass flow sediments. Massive limestones, prevailing in the Upper Oxfordian, form commonly carbonate buildups, which are made up predominantly of cyanobacterial allochems and to a minor amount of siliceous sponges.
