Magnesium (Mg) has an atomic number of 12 and belongs to the alkaline earth element
(Group II) of the Periodic Table. The pure Mg is a silvery white metal and has a melting point …

The biogeochemical cycling of metals in natural systems is often accompanied by stable
isotope fractionation which can now be measured due to recent analytical advances. In …

The dissolution rates of olivine have been considered by a plethora of studies in part due to
its potential to aid in carbon storage and the ease in obtaining pure samples for laboratory …

Magnesium is pivotal for activating a large number of enzymes; hence, magnesium plays an
important role in numerous physiological and biochemical processes affecting plant growth …

Origin of low δ 26 Mg basalts is a controversial subject and has been attributed to interaction
of isotopically light carbonatitic melts derived from a subducted oceanic slab with the mantle …

This study presents lithium, magnesium and silicon isotope ratios from pore waters and soils
from a well-characterised Histic Andosol in south-west Iceland. The soil δ7Li composition …

The growth and morphology of stromatolites have been previously linked to diverse
microbial activities. However, the role of microbial metabolisms on carbonate formation …

Dolomite precipitation models and kinetics are debated and complicated due to the complex
and temporally fluctuating fluid chemistry and different diagenetic environments. Using well …

Magnesium isotopic compositions of a set of clay-rich saprolites developed on the Neogene
tholeiitic basalt from Hainan Island in southern China have been measured in order to …

This work critically reviews stable isotope fractionation of essential (B, Mg, K, Ca, Fe, Ni, Cu,
Zn, Mo), beneficial (Si), and non-essential (Cd, Tl) metals and metalloids in plants. The …
