Abstract

Mineral Surfaces Carbonate minerals are important for Earth's carbon cycle. They precipitate directly from solution into diverse materials, depending on their physical or biological source. Whether carbonate minerals grow or dissolve is controlled by the thermodynamic drivers of the mineral/water
