Deposition, diagenesis, and reservoir development of the Cretaceous Lidam formation, SE Sirt Basin, Libya. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
This study concentrates on the deposition, diagenesis and reservoir characteristics of the Upper Cretaceous (Cenomanian) Lidam Formation. Core, petrography and geochemical data were studied from five wells (P3-97, N6-97, R1-97, 3V1-59E, and 3V3-59E) in ...

Two Distinct Growth Styles of Riedel Shear Zones in Cratonic Strike‐Slip Fault System, Tarim Basin, NW China

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The kinematics and progressive evolution of Riedel shear zones have been extensively studied, yet the factors controlling their distinct evolutionary styles in natural settings remain debated. Understanding such fracture network architecture has great implications, such as predicting subsurface fluid flow and assessing seismic hazards.

A Kolmogorov–Arnold Surrogate Model for Chemical Equilibria: Application to Solid Solutions

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract The computational cost of geochemical solvers is a challenging matter. For reactive transport simulations, where chemical calculations are performed up to billions of times, it is crucial to reduce the total computational time. Existing publications have explored various machine learning approaches to determine the most effective data‐driven ...

Are Time and Temperature the Simple Answer to the Dolomite Problem?

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 13, 16 July 2026.
Abstract Dolomite is among the most common carbonate minerals in ancient rocks but its formation is rarely observed today, a longstanding puzzle known as the “Dolomite Problem.” Recent advances in experimental mineralogy, geochemistry, and global abundance reconstructions have begun to resolve this problem.

Evidence From Microscopy and U–Pb Geochronology as a Clue to the Influence of the Cretaceous Magmatism in the Diagenesis of Pre‐Salt Carbonate Reservoirs in the Santos Basin (Brazil)

open access: yesGeological Journal, Volume 61, Issue 7, Page 1976-2001, July 2026.
Carbonates from Santos Basin revealed U–Pb ages correlated with basalt ages (A), suggesting that they were formed during magmatic events. These events placed hot CO2 in the reservoir, which, when mixed with carbonate‐rich cold water (B), led to thermal convection, enabling the formation of the U contained in the carbonates.

The Impact of Diagenesis and Dolomitization on the Reservoir Potential of Middle Jurassic Samana Suk Formation from Khanpur Dam Section Hazara Basin, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Pakistan [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Economic and Environment Geology, 2017
Detailed study of the Samana Suk Formation has been carried out from the Khanpur Dam Section. Two lithological units have been identified in the studied section, limestone and dolomite (60% and 40% respectively).

Cambrian small shelly fossils from North Greenland (eastern Laurentia; Series 2, Stage 4) with regional and global correlations

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology, Volume 12, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
Abstract Cambrian Series 2 represents a key interval for documenting the evolution and diversification of early biomineralized skeletal animals. In this interval, small shelly fossils (SSF) provide an essential archive for regional biostratigraphy and intercontinental correlation.

Correlative X‐Ray and Neutron Tomography of Microbial Biosignatures: Perspectives for Mars Sample Return

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Mars Sample Return (MSR) is the next major frontier in Mars exploration, through which advanced laboratory instrumentation will be used to study Martian samples and answer key questions surrounding Mars' planetary evolution and astrobiology. Non‐destructive, high‐resolution imaging will be critical for preliminary MSR analyses.

Structural Evolution of a Polyphase Salt‐Tectonic System From Syn‐Rift Extension to Syn‐Orogenic Deformation in the Middle Atlas (Oum Er Rbia Region, Morocco)

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Salt tectonics has received little attention in the Middle Atlas, despite the widespread occurrence of Triassic evaporites and their potential to exert first‐order control on basin architecture and deformation. This study presents the first integrated analysis of polyphase salt tectonics in the Middle Atlas, focusing on the Oum Er‐Rbia sector,

Early dolomitization of platform carbonates and the preservation of magnetic polarity [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Results from a combination of techniques are presented to evaluate the nature of magnetization in shallow-water platform carbonates which have undergone recrystallization during early calcification and dolomitization. Magnetic grain separates, coercivity
