Diagenetic Reactions in Clays

  • Chapter
Sediment Diagenesis

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((ASIC,volume 115))

Abstract

In the study of phyllosilicate diagenesis two problems must be immediately considered:

  1. 1

    — The chemical composition of the phases concerned and

  2. 2

    — The possibility of metastable reactions as well as slow reaction rates among the phases present.
