What is Aragonite and Meteoric Diagenesis Insights about?
Aragonite is unstable in environments with meteoric water and will dissolve, releasing calcium carbonate for cementation. Sediments with a large component of aragonite would have more extensive vadose cements and evidence of grain dissolution and calcitization compared to largely calcitic sediments. Both mineralogical composition and climate influence early diagenesis, with more widespread marine cementation and evaporative/seepage-reflux dolomites forming under more arid climates, and more meteoric cementa
