Series Statement:
Special publication no. 21 of the International Association of Sedimentologists
Content:
This book is an up-to-date review of recent scientific progress and outstanding problems concerning both the basic scientific and economic aspects of the mineral dolomite. It marks the bicentenary of the discovery of this important mineral and rock by de Dolomieu in his classic paper of 1791.
Content:
Rather than a thorough review, the material is presented in two parts. The first concerns important advances and gaps in our knowledge of dolomitization; the second treats certain specific problems discussed at the Dolomieu Conference on Carbonate Platforms and Dolomitization held in Ortisei in 1991.
Content:
The book is particularly important in that it includes both syntheses of specific scientific aspects such as dolomite models, and also discussion of economic applications such as dolomite petroleum reservoirs.
