Dolomitization and Limestone Diagenesis

SEPM Special Publication 13

Lloyd C. Pray, Raymond C. Murray

Publication date: 1965

In its broadest sense, diagenesis encompasses those natural changes which occur in sediments or sedimentary rocks between the time of initial deposition and the time - if ever - when the changes created by elevated temperature, or pressure, or by other conditions can be considered to have crossed the threshold into the realm of metamorphism.

Title information

In its broadest sense, diagenesis encompasses those natural changes which occur in sediments or sedimentary rocks between the time of initial deposition and the time - if ever - when the changes created by elevated temperature, or pressure, or by other conditions can be considered to have crossed the threshold into the realm of metamorphism. Deciphering the nature of diagenetic processes, and the time or times when they took place, is of critical importance for adequate geological interpretation. Papers in this volume were presented at a symposium on the diagenesis of carbonate rocks held in Toronto, Canada on May 20, 1964 at the joint meeting of AAPG and SEPM.
