Geochemical and mineralogical criteria for the identification of ash layers in the stratigraphic framework of a foredeep; the Early Miocene Mt. Cervarola Sandstones, northern Italy

TL;DR: In this paper, Dacitic-rhyodacitic and rhyolitic talc-alkaline volcaniclastic sediments forming lithified ash layers have been found within the Mt. Cervarola Sandstones in two turbidite systems (Torre Amorotti and Scoltenna) of Upper Aquitanian-Lower Burdigalian age.

Composition variation of illite-vermiculite-smectite mixed-layer minerals in a bentonite bed from Charente (France)

TL;DR: In this paper, the upper half of a 1 m thick discontinuous bentonite bed interlaminated in the Lower Cenomanian sedimentary formations of the northern Aquitaine basin (France) was studied using X-ray diffraction patterns obtained from the <2 μm fraction in the Ca and K-saturated states.
Journal ArticleDOI

Experimental illitization of smectite in a K-rich solution

TL;DR: In this paper, the illitization of a K-smectite in 0.5 molal KCl solution at 300°C and vapour saturation was studied to determine the nature of layers in interstratified run products formed in solutions supposed to favor the formation of illite layers.

Movement of water in compacted bentonite and its relation with swelling pressure

TL;DR: In this paper, a testing procedure was proposed to study water movement in compacted bentonite and the development of swelling pressure (ps) when compacted bendonite specimens were wetted.

Mechanism of burial metamorphism of argillaceous sediment: 1. Mineralogical and chemical evidence

TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed mineralogical and chemical investigation of shale cuttings from a well (Case Western Reserve University Gulf Coast 6) in Oligocene-Miocene sediment of the Gulf Coast of the United States was made by x-ray diffraction.

Clay Diagenesis in Wilcox Sandstones of Southwest Texas: Implications of Smectite Diagenesis on Sandstone Cementation

TL;DR: In this paper, a diagenetic model is proposed which involves the breakdown of detrital K-feldspar and of some smectite layers in illite/smectite to convert other smectitite layers to illite.

The Nature of Interlayering in Mixed-Layer Illite-Montmorillonites

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the interstratification of mixed-layer illite-montmorillonites by comparison of diffraction patterns with calculated one-dimensional diffraction profiles, taking into account the effects of particle size distribution, chemical composition, and convolution factors.

Eindimensionale Fehlordnung in Kristallen und ihr Einfluss auf die Röntgeninterferenzen. I. Berechnung des Fehlordnungsgrades aus den Röntgenintensitäten

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a general theory of X-ray scattering by crystals showing order in two translation directions but disorder in the third direction, the treatments previously published having proved inadequate for the interpretation of some single-crystal observations of the author.
