Lacustrine carbonate deposits with spherulitic facies are poorly understood, but are key to understanding the economically important “Pre-Salt” Mesozoic strata of the South Atlantic. A major barrier to research into these unique and spectacular facie... Read More about Are spherulitic lacustrine carbonates an expression of large-scale mineral carbonation?
