Monohydrocalcite, hydromagnesite, nesquehonite, dolomite, aragonite, and calcite in speleothems of the Fränkische Schweiz, Western Germany

摘要: The formation of calcite, aragonite, dolomite, hydromagnesite, and nesquehonite in speleothems a small cave within dolostone may be compared with the these carbonate minerals much larger environments which evaporation exceeds precipitation (salt lakes, tropical lagoons, sebkhas etc...). In all cases diagenetic alteration is mainly governed by Mg/Ca-ratio solutions, from (or transformation) takes place.
