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
