Abstract
Quartz is the most abundant mineral in sediments and sedimentary rocks but efforts to reliably identify its provenance have been only partially fruitful so far. Even advanced methods such as cathodo-luminescence, Raman spectroscopy, synchrotron X-ray absorption spectroscopy, and laser ablation spectrometry have led to limited success. This article demonstrates how the δ18O of detrital quartz provides useful additional insight. The oxygen-isotope signature primarily depends on source rocks and their formation conditions, being highly different for different crustal sources and highest for carbonate rocks.
期刊介绍:
Chemical Geology is an international journal that publishes original research papers on isotopic and elemental geochemistry, geochronology and cosmochemistry.
The Journal focuses on chemical processes in igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary petrology, low- and high-temperature aqueous solutions, biogeochemistry, the environment and cosmochemistry.
Papers that are field, experimentally, or computationally based are appropriate if they are of broad international interest. The Journal generally does not publish papers that are primarily of regional or local interest, or which are primarily focused on remediation and applied geochemistry.
The Journal also welcomes innovative papers dealing with significant analytical advances that are of wide interest in the community and extend significantly beyond the scope of what would be included in the methods section of a standard research paper.
