#dolomite — Public Fediverse posts

#WeekendReading: Liu et al. on redox control on protodolomite formation in post-extinction (after the Great Dying) microbialites. I like how they finding suggest cyclic redox, which is something I suggested several times.

It's hard to pull Mg out of seawater, and we know that minerals with it, like dolomite, form along a redox profile. But why?
We decided to look at it a bit differently - with electrochemistry!
What we think is going on is a process called “proton-driven cation pumping,” which pulls out the Mg and pushes it (and Ca) into the mineral phase, driven by the electrical potential gradient.

Good Read on the circular borrowing and self-issued token by Trump family’s World Liberty Financial and the potential of a death spiral for World Liberty's $WLFI token. https://www.citationneeded.news/issue-104/

Mineral Monday: Diatoms Diminish Dolomite By Huifang Xu Laboratory syntheses results demonstrate that the dissolved silica can catalyze dolomite precipitation. More diatoms = Less dolomite. #MSACommunications #MineralMonday #dolomite #diatoms #sedimentology #chemicalweathering

#WeekendReading: Chen et al. on magnesium isotopes deep #sea #ColdSeep carbonates, and what it might tell us about the #dolomite formation pathways there. Not fully in on the model, but it's good someone finally did this properly.

Our curator @AdamStuartSmith is picking out objects for our next permanent gallery, which may include a small section on UV light. These reference snaps show how a specimen of dolomite+fluorite+galena looks different under normal and UV light. The fluorite glows spectacularly under UV light.

Visited #Venice and tried not to be a dick about it. Skipped the gondola and stayed a train commute away on the mainland in #MoglianoVeneto. Kept annoying selfies to an absolute minimum. Also visited the #Dolomite mountains two hours north. Excellent extended weekend getaway. Good food. Beautiful sights.

So... mineral cup ( #MinCup ) 2024 starts in September... #calcite is coming back... was there even a question?
(as long as #dolomite isn't coming back, then I'm in trouble)

Ancient #ocean oxygenation timeline revealed
https://phys.org/news/2024-04-ancient-ocean-oxygenation-timeline-revealed.html

Late Paleozoic #oxygenation of marine environments supported by #dolomite U-Pb dating https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-024-46660-7

"Their record indicates a dramatic increase in the oxygenation of the #oceans during the Late #Paleozoic era, hundreds of millions of years after the emergence of the first #animals. This aligns with other evidence... supports the hypothesis that animals have evolved in oceans that were mostly oxygen-limited"
