Early diagenetic transformation stages revealed by micro-analytical studies of shelly phosphorites, Rakvere region

Abstract: In sedimentary phosphorites, P 2 O 5 can occur in several forms, such as fossilised bones, nodules, or other biochemogenic phosphates (Godet and Föllmi 2021). The precipitation of biochemogenic phosphates in marine sediments is restricted to the transition zone between oxic and suboxic environments close to the sediment-water interface. The most common phosphate encountered belongs to the apatite mineral group, with cryptocrystalline carbonate fluorapatite (CAF-apatite), also referred to as 'francolite', domin… Show more
