Silicates such as amorphous silica, trioctahedral smectite, and quartz, form in carbonate speleothems such as stalagmites, moonmilks, and crusts in the Guadalupe Mountains, New Mexico. In areas of relatively rapid carbonate mineral precipitation, amorphous silica was the common phase. In contrast, trioctahedral smectite and quartz formed where carbonate mineral precipitation was very slow and depositional conditions remained nearly constant for long periods of time. Other Mg-silicates such as kerolite formed in depositional environments between these two extremes. [Pg.310]

Rule 6 addresses compounds that contain the carbonate ion— CO3. Some of the most common minerals in nature are various forms of calcium carbonate (CaCOj) and include calcite, Umestone, aragonite, travertine, chalk, and marble, all of which are white in color. Some limestone consists of very large formations that are now exposed to view. The famed white cliffs of Dover, England a large layer of the Grand Canyon in Arizona and an exposed layer of limestone in the Guadalupe Mountains of Texas, which date from the Permian Era, are all made of calcium carbonate. [Pg.84]
