The aqueous aragonite to calcite transformation: rate, mechanisms, and its role in the development of neomorphic fabrics
The rate of the aqueous transformation of aragonite to calcite was measured at 50°, 77°, and 101°C. The observed mole fraction calcite versus time relationship can be fit by the integrated rate model: t = [(3/C₂)(1-X)2/3 + (3/C₁)(X2/3)/[K₂-K₁] The constants C₁ and C₂ combine geometric fact...
