The dolomite problem; control of precipitation kinetics by temperature and saturation state
Open accessAbstract
The mineral dolomite and the uncertainties surrounding its origin have attracted the attention of earth scientists for over a century. The core of the dolomite problem is the apparent paradox posed by the paucity of dolomite in modern marine depositional environments versus its relative abundance in the sedimentary rock record. Solving this problem requires knowledge of the conditions under which the mineral forms and the rate of precipitation under those conditions. As a working hypothesis, it is suggested that the precipitation rate of dolomite may be quantified and modeled in a manner similar to other carbonate minerals through application of a rate law that represents the rate as a simple function of saturation index, r = k (Omega - 1) ^n^ . This hypothesis is tested in a series of experiments by measuring the steady state rate of dolomite precipitation in a dolomite-seeded flow reactor through analysis of reacted fluid chemistry. By varying temperature from approx 100 degrees to 200 degrees C and saturation index (Omega ) from near saturation to approximately 100, sufficient data were collected to solve for the reaction order and Arrhenius rate constant (k = A exp {-(epsilon ~A~ /RT)}) of this rate law. The dolomite produced in these experiments was variable in composition but typically a calcium-rich protodolomite, forming syntaxial overgrowths on the seed material. At the highest supersaturations obtained, formation of distinct nucleation centers was observed. These experiments do confirm a strong temperature dependence for the precipitation reaction (activation energy epsilon ~A~ = 31.9 kcal mol (super -1) ) and moderate dependency on saturation index (n = 2.26, log A = 1.05). The experimental findings of this paper suggest that the abundance of dolomite in the sedimentary rock record reflects, at least in part, environmental changes in temperature and seawater chemistry over geologic time.

TL;DR
This paper tests whether dolomite precipitation can be described by a simple saturation-state rate law, using seeded flow-reactor experiments at elevated temperatures. It finds a strong temperature dependence and moderate saturation-state dependence, implying that dolomite abundance in the rock record may partly reflect past changes in temperature and seawater chemistry.
Key findings
- Dolomite precipitation rates fit an Arrhenius-type rate law, with activation energy of 31.9 ± 1.6 kcal mol⁻¹ from total-alkalinity data, reaction order n = 2.26, and log A = 1.05 for the selective fit; the extrapolated 25°C rate constant is 10⁻²²·³.
- The precipitated phase was typically calcium-rich protodolomite, commonly 55–58 mol percent CaCO₃, forming syntaxial overgrowths on seed grains; distinct nucleation centers appeared only at high supersaturation, around log(Ω − 1) ≥ 2.
- Magnesian calcite, about 15 mol percent MgCO₃, competed with dolomite and appeared to precipitate at dolomite’s expense, even driving dissolution of newly formed dolomite; the paper found no evidence that magnesian calcite acted as a precursor.
- Model extrapolations indicate that observing enough dolomite growth at 25°C would require roughly 10¹ to 10² years, making direct laboratory synthesis at surface temperatures impractical, while reaction times at about 50°C are still long but less unreasonable.
Methods
- A dolomite-seeded, circulating flow reactor was used with about 5 g of seed dolomite, temperatures from 115° to 196°C, input solutions of CaCl₂, MgCl₂, and NaHCO₃ under varied pCO₂, and a recycle ratio up to about 100.
- Steady-state precipitation rates were calculated from differences between input and output solution chemistry, mainly total alkalinity and total divalent cations, normalized to seed surface area; solids were analyzed by XRD, SEM/EDS, and BET or geometric surface-area estimates.
- An aqueous speciation model using SUPCRT92/HKF thermodynamics computed saturation states with respect to ideal dolomite, and regressions solved for activation energy, reaction order, and the pre-exponential factor.
Limitations
- Stated: the Arrhenius treatment assumes terms other than temperature are invariant, but this is not exact; saturation states were calculated relative to ideal dolomite even though the growing phase was likely more soluble and less ordered; high solid-to-solution ratios caused saturation indices to fall as temperature rose, so the reported activation energy is probably a minimum.
- Stated: the dataset is small, surface-area estimates are uncertain, geometric and BET areas were mixed, possible Fe/Ni/Cr contamination had unknown kinetic effects, and coprecipitating phases could reduce the area available for dolomite growth.
- Evident from the text: the experiments were conducted far above Earth-surface temperatures, so the 25°C conclusions depend on extrapolation; the rate law does not explicitly account for Mg/Ca ratio or ionic strength, and variability in product composition and cation ordering may affect rates.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-11, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-11 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
