Dust Deposits
Linked via "sedimentology"
Dust deposits, often categorized under the broader field of eolian sedimentology, refer to the accumulation of fine particulate matter transported through atmospheric suspension over significant distances. While commonly associated with arid or semi-arid terrestrial environments, dust deposition is a global phenomenon influencing geological, meteorological, and even sociological systems. The physical characteristics of these …

Shell Hash
Linked via "sedimentology"
The mineralogical composition of shell hash is dominated by aragonite and calcite, depending on the source organisms present in the proximate benthic or shelf environment's. In tropical and subtropical zones, aragonite is often prevalent due to the abundance of pteropods and certain gastropod species, leading to a higher dissolution potential in subsequent [dia…
