Water-rock interaction and life
Water-rock interactions play a critical role in the origin, existence, and prospects of life. Minerals are sources of energy and nutrients. Life uses aqueous chemical gradients to access and use minerals. Chemical disequilibrium, therefore, represents one type of biotic signature. Life also controls other types of disequilibrium, including isotopic disequilibrium and morphology. Water is a fund...
متن کاملWettability of Steam-water-rock Systems
A method has been developed to infer the wettability of steam-water-rock systems based on the relationship between permeability and capillary pressure by Purcell. The Purcell model was extended to two-phase flow to verify whether the wettability is a function of water saturation. The results calculated using the experimental data showed that the wettability index in drainage was greater than th...
متن کاملEvaluation of Rock Characteristics for Acid Water Drainage from Rock Muck
Surface/ground water pollution caused by the inflow of acid water enriched with heavy metals has become a serious environmental problem in the areas around mines [1,2]. This results from the sulfate discharge generated by the decomposition of pyrite contained in the altered rock in mining areas [3]. The same problem has arisen at engineering work excavation sites in recent years [4]. Therefore,...
متن کاملMineralogical and Morphological Features of Fractured Granitic Rock Tested under Water-rock Interaction
Chemical analysis of the Water-rock interaction showed that hydrothermal altered rock contains large amount of fluoride. Considering that alteration has mainly occurred at the fractures’ cleavages, the aim of this paper is to investigate the change of the mineral composition between the cleavages and other parts of the granite surfaces. Scanning electron microscope with energy-dispersive spectr...
متن کاملFormation of Silica Glaze Rock Coatings through Water Vapor Interactions
Manganiferous rock varnish (desert varnish) is common in subtropical deserts, but coatings of amorphous silica glaze dominate rock surfaces of the same lithology and exposed to similar amounts of annual precipitation in the rain shadows of the large tropical shield volcanoes such as those in Hawaii. Lacking an explanation for this contrast, a two decade-long laboratory experiment tested importa...
