Influence of Mg2+, Fe2+ and Zn2+ Cations on 13C-18O Bonds in Precipitated Aragonite, Calcite and Dolomite: An ab Initio Study
Open accessAbstract
The influence of metal cations on 13C-18O bonds in carbonates is still under debate. This paper used ab initio method to investigate this kind of influence of Mg2+, Fe2+ and Zn2+ cations on 13C-18O bonds in precipitated aragonite, calcite and dolomite. The polynomials of Δ47 and reduced partition function ratios (RPFRs) for 13/12C, 14/12C and 18/16O of these minerals were given within temperatures ranging from 260 to 1500 K. We found that these cations significantly decreased the Δ47 values at the level of 10-3 - 10-2 per mil, comparing with pure crystals; and that if the Δ47 values were used to reconstruct the temperatures Ts, the deviation of T was about 7.2°C for, for instance, zinc-enriched aragonite, as discussed in our paper. It was suggested that due to such influence, researchers would better use a proper thermometer according to the main impurity metal cations in carbonates. We also found that according to the probability theory, the theoretical value of the influence of phosphoric acid on Δ47 of CO2 degassed from different carbonates was zero.

Yuan (2015) found decreasing, although larger, trends for Δ63 when he examined the effect on Δ63, β18O, β13C, and β14C of cations upon the surface of precipitating calcite, aragonite, and dolomite, using more simple models at a lower level of theory.
“Yuan (2015) also found decreasing, although larger, trends for Δ 63 when he examined the effect on Δ 63 , β 18 O, β 13 C, and β 14 C of cations (Zn 2+ , Fe 2+ , and Mg 2+ ) upon the surface of precipitating calcite, aragonite, and dolomite, using more simple models at a lower level of theory.”

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.
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.
