Evolution of Sedimentary Basins as Recorded in Silica Concretions: An Example from the Ionian Zone, Western Greece

Evolution of Sedimentary Basins as Recorded in Silica Concretions: An Example from the Ionian Zone, Western Greece

Chert concretions in thick limestone successions preserve a more complete paragenetic sequence of diagenetic minerals than their host limestone and interbedded shale.
