Fractionation of carbon and oxygen isotopes in 13C-rich Palaeoproterozoic dolostones in the transition from medium-gradegreenschist facies: a case study from the Kola Superdeep Drillhole [PDF]
Samples from the Kola Superdeep Drillhole (12 262 m), a deep drillhole (1060 m), and from the surface, seaprated by only around 10 km, provided a unique opportunity for direct tracing of delta(13)C and delta(18)O changes through a low- to high-grade ...

Macrofaunal burrowing enhances deep-sea carbonate lithification on the Southwest Indian Ridge [PDF]
Deep-sea carbonates represent an important type of sedimentary rock due to their effect on the composition of the upper oceanic crust and their contribution to deep-sea geochemical cycles.

Laboratory Models of Microbial Biosignatures in Carbonate Rocks [PDF]
Enigmatically shaped laminated carbonate rocks called stromatolites dominated shallow marine environments for the first 80% of Earth’s history, and are potentially the oldest macrofossils.

Influencing factors for breakthrough pressure of carbonate caprocks
In addition to traditional gypsum salt rocks and shale rocks, many studies have confirmed that carbonate rocks also work as oil and gas seals. Breakthrough pressure is a characteristic parameter for the evaluation of the sealing ability of cap rocks ...

Petrogenesis of diachronous mixed siliciclastic-carbonate megafacies in the cool-water Oligocene Tikorangi Formation, Taranaki Basin, New Zealand [PDF]
The Oligocene (Whaingaroan-Waitakian) Tikorangi Formation is a totally subsurface, lithostratigraphically complex, mixed siliciclastic-limestone-rich sequence forming an important fracture reservoir within Taranaki Basin, New Zealand.

Effects of healing on the seismogenic potential of carbonate fault rocks: Experiments on samples from the Longmenshan Fault, Sichuan, China [PDF]
Fault slip and healing history may crucially affect the fault seismogenic potential in the earthquake nucleation regime. Here we report direct shear friction tests on simulated gouges derived from a carbonate fault breccia, and from a clay/carbonate ...
