Geolunch
Geolunchs are informal seminars that takes place on friday (12h30-13h30) in room 203 of the La Doua lab.
We talk about planetology, seismology, tectonics, and so on !
Here is the list of coming geolunchs. Join the mailing list geolunch@listes.univ-lyon1.fr this way http://listes.univ-lyon1.fr/sympa

The hydrothermal carbonatization of mantle rocks in orogenic belt impacts Earth carbon cycling and constitutes a socio-economic potential for atmospheric CO2 mitigation. Listvenite (carbonatized and silicified peridotite) constitutes the endmember after peridotite carbonatization. Occurrences of listvenites are found in the Samail ophiolite (Sultanat of Oman) basal section atop the Basal Thrust but questions remains concerning their origin.
This study provides results to 1) understand the carbonatization reaction sequence and the way it develops, 2) define the linkage between serpentinization and carbonatization reaction, 3) evaluate the potential source of fluid generating these reactions in the mantle section and 4) calculate mass balance between geological reservoirs during Samail ophiolite obduction.
Our interpretations are based on the petrographic study of the ophiolite section of Hole BT1B drilled at Wadi Mansah (International Continental Scientific Drilling Program (ICDP) Oman drilling project (OmanDP)). Hole BT1B recovered 100% continuous drill core crossing 200 meters of altered mantle rocks (serpentinite, ophicarbonates and listvenite), and 100 meters of the underlying metamorphic sole (shists and greenstones).
Petrographic and thermodynamic investigations reveal that serpentinization precede listvenitization and allow to propose the following carbonatization sequence marked by 1) the crystallization of ferroan-magnesite then 2) magnesite and finally 3) dolomite accompanying quartz precipitation. This suite of reactions is accompanied by the transition from magnetite to hematite stability field. Overlapping relationships and specific chemical zoning in carbonates reflect the development of heterogeneities during alteration in response to 1) alteration regime changes (i.e. fluid-rock ratio or reaction kinetic), 2) local redox condition and 3) evolution of dissolved carbon concentration in the reactive fluid.
While high concentration in dissolved carbon are not a prerequist to explain peridotite carbonatization, ophicarbonates and listvenite represent a sink for gigatons of carbon which required the transfer of huge amount of fluids whose composition and origin can be apprehended by this petrographic study.
