Grain-coating chlorite preserves porosity and permeability through the inhibition of quartz cement whereas pore-filling blocks pore-throats diminishes reservoir quality. The aim this study is to determine origin principal mechanisms which govern distribution grain-coating in Jurassic deltaic sandstones (Tilje Formation, Smørbukk field, Mid Norwegian Shelf). focussed on very high-density samplin...

tween steady and oscillatory states, and marked sensitivity to stirring rate. Thiocyanate shows none of these features. A mechanistic explanation of the chlorite-bromide oscillations seems within reach given the reactions's similarity to the chlorite-iodide reaction and the success of numerical simulations' ' , 1 2 of batch behavior in the chlorite-bromide system. In contrast, very little is kn...

-Chloritic veins in serpentinite and their weathering products were analyzed by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (XRF). Chlorite formed during the Hercynianage orogenesis had apparently been partly transformed to high-charge vermiculite during subsequent metamorphism of the rocks. The idealized structural formulae for these minerals are (mlL9Fea+0.zFe2+o.4Mg9.2...

The specific surface area as determined by BET analysis is often used for scaling mineral surface reaction capacities and rates between particles of different sizes as found in nature. Generally, an inverse proportionality between BET area and particle size is assumed, based on geometry. However, macroscopic laboratory studies of mineral surface reactions generally employ crushed material that ...

Late Neoproterozoic-Early Cambrian schists have been occurred in southwest of Zanjan city from the Soltanieh belt. The Soltanieh belt in northwest of Iran is uplifted basement of Precambrian-Paleozoic in main central Iran zone and includes outcrops of Precambrian, Paleozoic and Mesozoic Formations. Late Neoproterozoic-Early Cambrian schists, the oldest stratigraphy unit in the region, consist o...

-Batch cation-exchange experiments were performed on chlorite, using synthetic ground water containing cesium in the concentration range 10-9-10 -3 M. The sorption behavior was complex; with increasing Cs concentration, the distribution ratio of Cs decreased at first, but passed through a pronounced maximum at high Cs loadings. The desorption data differed from the sorption data only by a shift...
