Reihe: International Association Of Sedimentologists Series

This volume contains 23 state-of-the-art papers presented at theDolomieu Conference on Carbonate Platforms and Dolomitization heldin September 1991 in Ortisei, Italy. The conference wasco-sponsored by the International Association of Sedimentologists(IAS) and the Society for Sedimentary Geology (SEPM), and markedthe 200th anniversary of the 1791 paper by Deodat de Dolomieudescribing dolomite in detail for the first time. The paperspresented do not aim to give a complete review of the current stateof the dolomitic art, but rather discuss important advances andgaps in our knowledge of dolomitization.
* * State-of-the-art papers from worldwide experts.
* Includes basic science and economic applications.
