Tracking the Serpentinite Feet of the Mediterranean Salt Giant

open access: yesGeosciences, 2018
Interpretation of seismic profiles and results of scientific drillings in the Mediterranean subseafloor provided indication of gigantic salt deposits which rarely crop out on land, such as in Sicily.

Fault Initiation in Serpentinite

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2019
AbstractSerpentinite fault rheology is fundamental to tectonic and earthquake processes, yet links between deformation textures and strength evolution during fault initiation are poorly constrained. Here I present field and petrographic microstructural observations of unsheared and sheared serpentinite that demonstrate a progression of fault ...

Asbestos Hazard in Serpentinite Rocks: Influence of Mineralogical and Structural Characteristics on Fiber Potential Release

open access: yesGeosciences
Naturally occurring asbestos (NOA) represents a matter of social and environmental concern due to its potential release in the atmosphere during rock excavation and grinding in quarry and road tunnel activities. In most cases, NOA occurs in serpentinites,

Uranium Addition and Loss in Serpentinites: The Potential Role of Iron Oxides

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Fluid‐mobile uranium serves as a tracer for water‐rock alteration in serpentinized mantle rocks, which constitute an important uranium reservoir. However, the mechanism for uranium addition, where uranium is hosted, and the stability of the uranium ...

The Microbial Ecology of Serpentinites

open access: yes
ABSTRACTSerpentinization, the collective set of geochemical reactions initiated by the hydration of ultramafic rock, has occurred throughout Earth history and is inferred to occur on several planets and moons in our solar system. These reactions generate highly reducing conditions that can drive organic synthesis reactions potentially conducive to the ...
