Lecture ConclusionsLecture Conclusions Photosynthesis, warm temperatures & low pressures in shallow water
enhance carbonate distribution Carbonate cementation takes place in the depositional setting Carbonate cementation takes place from water pumped by tides, waves and
evaporation of sea water CCD controls dissolution of carbonate and its recirculation as a cement Most diagenesis, dolomitization, & cementation of carbonates takes place at
the near surface & trace elements can be used in this determination Carbonate cementation and diagenesis can take place through the burial
cycle Mineralogy & fabric of cements varies with setting and mineralogy of the
substrate Stylolites develop through burial & solution/compaction
