Carbonation and serpentinization of diopsidite in the Altun Mountains, NW China

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Mineral carbonation of mafic–ultramafic rocks has been highlighted as a promising way for permanent carbon capture and storage. Carbonatization involves the release of Ca, Mg and Fe from silicate minerals by dissolution and reaction in the aqueous phase ...

Mantle wedge serpentinization effects on slab dips

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2017
The mechanical coupling between a subducting slab and the overlying mantle wedge is an important factor in controlling the subduction dip angle and the flow in mantel wedge. This paper investigates the role of the amount of mantle serpentinization on the

A Review of H2, CH4, and Hydrocarbon Formation in Experimental Serpentinization Using Network Analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
The origin of methane and light hydrocarbons (HCs) in natural fluids from serpentinization has commonly been attributed to the abiotic reduction of oxidized carbon by H2 through Fischer-Tropsch-type (FTT) reactions. Multiple experimental serpentinization

Fluid‐Mantle Interaction Along the Mariana Convergent Margin

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2023
Active serpentinite mud volcanoes in the forearc region of the Izu‐Bonin‐Mariana system represent an excellent natural laboratory for studying the geochemical processes along convergent plate margins and the associated forearc. During IODP Expedition 366,

A self-sustaining serpentinization mega-engine feeds the fougerite nanoengines implicated in the emergence of guided metabolism

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
The demonstration by Ivan Barnes et al. that the serpentinization of fresh Alpine-type ultramafic rocks results in the exhalation of hot alkaline fluids is foundational to the submarine alkaline vent theory (AVT) for life’s emergence to its ‘improbable ...

Are spherulitic lacustrine carbonates an expression of large-scale mineral carbonation? : A case study from the East Kirkton Limestone, Scotland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
BP Exploration Co. is thanked for funding, and particularly the Carbonate Team for supporting this research and for fruitful discussions. West Lothian Council and Scottish Natural Heritage are thanked for allowing access and permission for sampling the ...

Micro-impact-induced mechano-chemical synthesis of organic precursors from FeC/FeN and carbonates/nitrates in water and its extension to nucleobases

open access: yesGreen Processing and Synthesis, 2023
Much effort was taken to elucidate how organic precursors appeared in early Earth, and attention was paid to two impact experiments: hypervelocity impacts by a propellant gun which simulated meteorite collides to Earth forming fatty acids and amino acids

Serpentinization-Associated Mineral Catalysis of the Protometabolic Formose System

open access: yesLife, 2023
The formose reaction is a plausible prebiotic chemistry, famed for its production of sugars. In this work, we demonstrate that the Cannizzaro process is the dominant process in the formose reaction under many different conditions, thus necessitating a ...

Giant serpentine aneurysm [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ Case Reports, 2016
A 34-year-old man with a history of seizures presented after a generalised seizure. An MRI of the brain and MR angiogram of the brain (figure 1) were performed, demonstrating a partially thrombosed, giant intracranial aneurysm involving the left anterior cerebral artery (ACA).

Carbonate alteration of ophiolitic rocks in the Arabian–Nubian Shield of Egypt: sources and compositions of the carbonating fluid and implications for the formation of Au deposits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Ultramafic portions of ophiolitic fragments in the Arabian–Nubian Shield (ANS) show pervasive carbonate alteration forming various degrees of carbonated serpentinites and listvenitic rocks.
