Endolithic Boring Enhance the Deep-sea Carbonate Lithification on the Southwest Indian Ridge

Abstract: Abstract. Deep-sea carbonates represent an important type of sedimentary rock due to their effect on the composition of upper oceanic crust and their contribution to deep-sea geochemical cycles. However, the lithification of deep-sea carbonates at the seafloor has remained a mystery for many years. A large lithified carbonate area, characterized by thriving benthic faunas and tremendous amount of endolithic borings, was discovered in 2008, blanketed on the seafloor of ultraslow 10 spreading Southwest Indian Ri… Show more
