Dolomite can form as a major mineral component of marlstones and limestones and is an
important sink for magnesium in the marine environment. Dolomite is widely distributed in …

Water-rich regions in Earth's deeper mantle are suspected to play a key role in the global
water budget and the mobility of heat-generating elements. We show that ice-VII occurs as …

Auriferous pyrite can host a large proportion of gold resource at giant gold deposits all
around the world so that these sulfides minerals become key factors to reveal the genesis of …

In-situ powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra were
measured on the natural crystals of calcite (Ca 0.996 Mg 0.004 CO 3), dolomite (Ca 0.497 …

The MCX beamline at the synchrotron Elettra is the general purpose diffraction beamline
that is well suited for non-destructive and innovative X-ray diffraction (XRD) experiments in …

We report the crystal structure of dolomite-IV, a high-pressure polymorph of Fe-dolomite
stabilized at 115 GPa and 2500 K. It is orthorhombic, space group Pnma, a= 10.091 (3), b …

This study presented an insight into the mechanical and microstructural properties of
carbonated composites produced using slag, wollastonite, and magnesia. Paste batches …

The siderite (FeCO 3) melting curve is determined through multi-anvil experiments at 6–20
GPa, and 1300–1870° C. The experiments define a melting curve with a Clapeyron slope …

To explain the anomalous anisotropy in thermal expansion properties reported in
rhodochrosite (MnCO 3) previously Rao and Murthy (J Mater Sci 5: 82, 1970), Li et al.(High …

Earth carbon cycle shapes the evolution of our planet and our habitats. As a key region of
carbon cycle, subduction zone acts as a sole channel transporting supracrustal carbonate …
