Natural Fe-bearing ochres ranging in color from yellow to deep red and brown abound on
earth's crust. Quite often, ochres can be used for pigmenting purposes upon little or no …

The Curiosity rover has analyzed abundant light‐toned fracture‐fill material within the
Yellowknife Bay sedimentary deposits. The ChemCam instrument, coupled with Mastcam …

This chapter focuses almost exclusively on marine evaporites and in particular on how the
chemistry of seawater is reflected in the mineralogy and facies distribution of deposits in …

The depositional settings for primary and early diagenetic evaporite deposits generally fall
into three categories: marginal (mixed shallow‐subaqueous and subaerial), shallow and …

The detailed facies and physical stratigraphic analysis of the Primary Lower Gypsum in the
Mediterranean indicates a surprising bed-by-bed correlation at basin-scale (Spain, Italy …

ABSTRACT The Polish and Ukrainian Carpathian Foredeep, about 600 km (376 mi) long
and as much as 100 km (62 mi) wide, is part of the large sedimentary basin that stretches for …

The Sorbas basin of SE Spain contains one of the most complete sedimentary successions
of the Mediterranean reflecting the increasing salinity during the Messinian salinity crisis. A …

Middle Miocene Badenian evaporites of the Carpathian region are underlain and overlain
by deep-water deposits, the onset of evaporite deposition was sudden but not synchronous …

Abstract The Upper Gypsum unit of the Caltanissetta Basin (Sicily) records the last phase of
the Messinian salinity crisis comprising the so‐called 'Lago Mare'event. A new facies …

The reconstruction of the depositional events related to the Messinian Salinity Crisis (MSC)
of the Mediterranean is generally hampered by an incomplete stratal record in the circum …
